The cabal of the arcane arts

Prompt 12: Somewhere in your world setting describe an organization associated with leadership, governance or change
The cabal of the arcane arts
The cabal is a continent-wide organization of the most powerful magic users in Thar’kor that run schools, cities, libraries of magical resources, the magical asylum of Bhernoldur, and other magical institutions. The purpose of the cabal is to monitor, and control the use of magic in the realm as well as to observe the movements of the Dark lord’s necromantic and magic-using forces and provide tactical advice or forces to aid in the battle against these dark wizards.
The cabal was established in the year 50 PIA when it became clear that magic could not be utterly removed from the realm of man. The leaders and the magic users who fled their wrath came to a truce and settled on a pact to aid the realm in the protection against dark magic. Neither side fully trust the other, however, they see there is mutual benefit in co-existing and providing checks and balances on the magical forces in Thar’kor.
As the controlling power of all magical schools, safe havens and industry in Thar’kor the Cabal holds a large amount of power. The heads of the cabal meet every 3 months in Drostrea either in person or via magical means, to discuss and make rulings on magical affairs. Sometimes representatives of various kingdoms will attend to discuss a matter of magical nature in their territories that require the cabal's assistance. Through this means the Cabal has established a network of adventurers and magic users who aid kingdoms by eliminating magical menaces. They also undertake matters such as the recruiting of the magically gifted, deliberate on teaching syllabus, and provide a court for crimes of a magical nature across the continent. On a more local level, the cabal has agents within the courts of each kingdom, local judges, magistrates and district heads of schools to manage the daily affairs of magic users in each kingdom.
