History

Commissioned by the Imbrianus emperor during the Wennovian Era, construction on the Imbrian Institute of Health began well before Torverath was established as a city-state.   Its sprawling, ornate design was meant to symbolize the great importance Imbrianus placed on the people, the goddess Torva, the healing arts, and the advancement of magic and education. Construction was completed in -147 WE, but the sense of good will it instilled in the people would only last for so long.   After the Great Uprising and the formation of the city-state, the instute's name changed to the Torverath Institute of Health. It has been in operation for over 1,000 years.

Competition

Other healing clinics, universities, and research facilities exist in Torverath and Salaris. However, none are as old, well-funded, and rooted in tradition as TIH.   To their dismay, these other organizations are always compared to TIH, and struggle to attract witches with the highest skills and magic talent.   However, a few that have chosen to specialize in one or two particular areas, such as treating Magic Addiction, have seen great success.
