College of Cinders

The College of Cinders preserves disaster records, failed rites, and field reports from places that should have stayed buried.

Public Face

• Maintains a reading hall open to petitioners.
• Issues ash-sealed warnings when an old danger stirs.
• Pays unusually well for maps, relic sketches, and survivor testimony.

Known Custom

Members never burn personal letters. They fold them into clay jars and shelve them by moon phase.
