Public Agenda

Current Activities:   Field Research:   Teams are actively mapping the regions surrounding Chatri's Passage and beyond. Researchers are engaged in documenting the flora and fauna, focusing on their arcane properties and potential uses.   Cultural Exchange:   Establishing dialogues with Insectoid hives and Beastpeople communities to learn about their histories, beliefs, and daily lives.   Arcane Studies:   Investigating the arcane currents believed to influence the movement of the floating islands. Collecting samples of rare materials and artifacts for study back in Cymara.   Future Plans:   Permanent Research Outposts: Establishing a network of semi-permanent research stations to enable long-term studies and provide a base for future expeditions.   Expanded Exploration: Pushing further into the unmapped regions of Occidalis to uncover new arcanological and cultural discoveries.   Publication and Dissemination: Compiling and publishing findings in Conclave journals, with appropriate redactions for sensitive information. Sharing non-sensitive discoveries with the broader academic and magical communities to enhance collective knowledge and foster collaboration.
