Charter
The Scholars of Eternity, formed from the minds and ideologies of the two great Houses of the Emergence Academy and the Eternal Order, shall endeavor to build up a strong and capable faction within the City that will serve to protect the natural energies of the Dream and its dreamers while actively seeking greater knowledge of it and its potential.
The Scholars feel that the entirety of the Dreamscape is comprised of the constant yet malleable inter-workings of the energies: DreamSoul, Insight, Lucidity, Resilience, and Willpower. This eternal and dynamic flow of energies within the Dream is known as 'the Weave'. It is via this interplay that dreamers are able to interact with the Dream, each other, and even their own avatars and minds.
With respect to the concept of the Weave and all that it implies here in the Dream, the Scholars seek to protect the Dream and its energies from those who would do it harm or misuse it. We feel the energies of the Dream should be explored in ways to improve the overall condition of the citizenship and the City itself through research and understanding of how we can interact with the Dreamscape and affect it.
As such, the Scholars of Eternity will constantly seek to better our selves and strive to expand the ways in which we can both protect and improve the Dream. We feel it is the prerogative of the individual to seek self-advancement such that he or she can better contribute to the Scholars' efforts at providing a secure, improved dreaming experience for other dreamers.
