Elysian Institute of Arcana

To date, all that is known of the Elysian Institute of Arcana is that which has been found and research from the institute's registrar, which was discovered by the adventurer's guild of Eskarya.
An organisation dedicated to the training of wizards, warlocks and sorcerers, along with a vast library of knowledge, lore and arcane. The institute was governed as a magocracy, the governing body is composed of spellcasters who rule directly as oligarchs or feudal lords, or participate in a democracy or bureaucracy. The council of elders were made of arcane users who led their favoured school of magic.

Each elder was the head of the their respective schools of magic, and were united in the teachings of the gifted peoples of Elysia, be them divine, learned or innate. The Institute harnessed the powers of Elysians and their knowledge was second to none within the continent. Under the guidance of Dystava, the god of knowledge and the arcane, they practised their craft with license from their deity whom crafted the weave that held the arcane as one in the continent of Elysia and beyond.
Upon the completion of studies, expected to be finalised upon their twenty-fifth day of of birth, mages were sent to act as diplomats and counsellors to the Earls of the Coalition State. Mages were taught to abide by the following doctrine.
#Guide, never lead.
#Ambition is sin.
#Greed is absence of patience.
#Though counsel, there can be peace.
#Unity of man, through unity of the arcane.
It is noted within the registrar, that five years before the formation of the Coalition State, that Markus Tosima had outlawed the counsel of mages in the courts of Earls and that the right of arcane guidance was solely for the King of Tosima. It is recorded that at this time, the Institute refused to send their mages to any Earldom until the law had been lifted and their counsel was accepted to every Earldom and Barony in the province. As opposed to accepting their terms, the King of Tosima pushed further and outlawed the use of magic in his Kingdom, though eventually accepted that the Institute would not be closed following several attempts to siege the citadel, only for the entire building to disappear upon their arrival for months at a time.
Also recorded within the registrar, is those who had been expelled from the institute by the elders and the reasons for their explusion.
