Seekers of Understanding
"Well, in the beginning I just figured it would be a way to get my scholarly friends to share their findings, and it seems others were more intrigued by the idea than me. In fact, I think that we have now hundreds if not thousands of people who can say they are part of our little scholarly circle. Well, I'm not complaining. It is much more pleasent to share my findings with someone I can feel I have even remote connection."

Structure
Seekers of Understanding is a loose collection of sages, scholars and wizards come together to share their research with one another. They have no leader or any other roles within their ranks.
Public Agenda
Seekers of Understanding tries to offer a network of scholars who can share their findings with each other easily and without great formalities.
History
The idea behind the Seekers of Understanding was first proposed by Alidar, Strongtooth, who wanted to find likeminded individuals to share his research with. He once joked about the idea while meeting with two of his collegues, Avarnath Cloudstone and Hekiliah Averius. These two took great interest in the idea, and started to send letters around the world for scholars to come to Merian for first Wonders of Evernight Symposium. About twenty people arrived to the event, and there the participants decided to stay in contact and to share their findings with each other as well as help in and review work done by others. They also decided to make the Symposium a yearly event.
This tradition continued, and everytime all the participants brought a few of their collegues or apprentices with them and little by little the Seekers of Understanding grew.
