This guild welcomes both lone enthusiasts and learned scholars with a passion for world history, rare artifacts, and ancient mysteries. They keep a low profile, interacting mostly among themselves. Both Empire and League watch their activities with interest, and some historians are rumored to work covertly for government agencies. Their leader, the Great Mage Nayan, is said to be the oldest living mage in the world. For Nayan and his fellows, the past is a sacred obsession. Their motto is: “All for the sake of knowing.”
