- Background: The Academy of Sorcery, or al-Ighaz ("the academy"), is an exclusive sect devoted to furthering the study of the arcane arts. It possesses tremendous power within Gharu'ndim society, but seldom deigns to wield it.

- The Academy of the al-Ighaz was based in Tirethas[2]
- Some scholars taught their apprentices the Sho virtues of the Four Stones of Jojii.[2]
