from A Brief History of the Guild of Moon Magic by Kssarh T'kinnirii, Apprentice to Guildmaster Tiv
Under Braun, the Celestial Compact formed the idea for the Guild and led the unification process. Scholars without peer and keen students of the movement of the heavens, they employ astrology and magic to see the far future as if it were yesterday. It is this author's pride to directly descend from this near-perfect lineage, without whom all would have been lost.
A stuffy junior officer leans forward and speaks to you about this sect. "The Celestial Compact is made up of scholars and astrologers, and has a history dating back to the Empire. The members of the Compact served not only as seers and historians for the Emperors, but also as political advisors, and many leaders of the Compact manipulated their way into the highest reaches of power."
"The Celestial Compact lived on after the collapse by dominating the Moon Mage Guild they had organized, as they almost always maintained a fifty percent majority on the Moon Mage High Council. The Braun family has traditionally led not only the Compact, but the Council itself, serving as a driving force behind the Guild and many of its improvements."
The Celestial Compact excels at light manipulation and light-based illusion." The junior officer adds, "You have but to JOIN us, and be part of this heritage."
