Hail Scholars, Who Comest Forth From Their Halls!

Hail, Scholars, who comest forth from their halls!

In the land of the folly of my youth, when we go before the gods of the afterlife, there we say "I have not learned that which is not," to proclaim our worthiness to pass into their realms. It is of great and glorious consequence that this proclamation is also the guiding spirit of the edifice of knowledge around us. For is it not true that each block in a pyramid is laid one upon another? And is it not true that we climb this pyramid of magical erudition from the foundations of studenthood to the pinnacle of mastery, each of us longing to cry out from the top I HAVE NOT LEARNED THAT WHICH IS NOT!

I have the humble honor to declare myself Professor Mahud Gasen, a Master of this Lady's College, Conjurer of this Conclave, Summoner of Beings, and in the name of the most worthy Dean Savengriff, may he learn forever, I seek those willing to assist in a great endeavor. I have been embarked for many decades on a work of vast importance to the condition of scholarship, to my own satisfaction and to the beasts and beings of these great Silver Marches, my adopted homeland. It has been my privilege and honor to enlist the aid of Masters Auroneous and Clarvue, of Transmutation and Divination respectively, in the latter stages of this research. Now it is my solemn, most joyful intention to enlist scholars to aid in the collection of materials to bring this project to a presentation stage.

If even more than not learning what is not, you would learn what is, your name will sing in my ears as the desert nightingale and your aid shall multiply my efforts as the stars in the night sky.
