traveling pedagogue of the Sanctum City of Illithaed

The Sanctum City of Illithaed also known as the caring capital, the city of archives. It is the home of the grand library, and top medical and educational institutions in the world. The philanthropic aid Illithaed provides to the world is extensive and includes access to shapers who train and teach medical professionals through out the world including menders which provide free health care services to the needy, and traveling pedagogue or professors who bring a modern post industrial renaissance education to as much of the world as possible. The old world has had systems of formal education of some kind for generations now. There populace receives a modern education in order to keep up with the innovations and discoveries of other nations and powers. 

Funding

The funding for these philanthropic ventures comes about by a couple of means, firstly no one in the city funds them not through tax's or as a charity. All of the cities humanitarian ventures are funded by wealthy or influential citizens of other cities who won the bid to host and house a Shaper, who will act as there personal doctor and providing cosmetic alterations if desired. They would teach personnel in the hosts city allowing for the betterment of medical services and practices. The second way is through the mandatory donations provided for access to the Grand Library and its extensive and largest catalog of knowledge. The third comes from rationalizer caster guilds and universities who fund Illithaed as long as there shapers and pedagogues seek out individuals and students who might be exceptionally gifted in casting either with an expended chroma reserve, or in the understanding of weaving/casting with hopes of discovering the next Enlightened. Individuals with exceptional ability and understanding of casting like Abu Salathah The Sorcerer King was during his life.  

availability and organizational structure

In the past the administrators of the program sought to educate as much of the world as possible. Funding and organizing expeditions stocked with educational materials, food, medicines and other resources needed for humanitarian aid. Normally three or so professors accompanied by a handful of scholars and some guards/proctors would be sent on these expeditions to teach, document and learn from distant isolated groups and communities, normally in the frontier lands or other distant areas of the world. ideally they sought to set up permanent schools, taught by a local educational professional. The class rooms were normally simple constructed or provided buildings. In which one of the professors and several scholars would teach a class of twenty or so students with the use of the educational materials they brought along. The traveling pedagogue of the Sanctum City of Illithaed has impressively led the way in educating large portions of the worlds inhabitants.    Though in the modern times and very recently all communication with Illithaed has ceased. The area around the city has been covered with an impregnable grey fog, in which no expedition and search teams return from. Some flashes and the sound of battle echo through the dense fog though no sighting of the cities inhabitants have been documented. All of the cities ongoing humanitarian ventures have been taken over by The Sanctum City of Arnarfell. Though groups like The Concord of Liberation has took it upon themselves to continue were Illithaed left off.
