Formerly the Galtan National Academy of the Arcane, this former world famous institution of learning has been sacked multiple times by regimes and looters alike. Since the rise of Citizen Korran Goss, the university grounds have been handed over to the care of his vizier, Mirielle Houdin, a powerful abjurer. Mirelle has spent the last few years personally repairing a buildings on the university grounds and warding the grounds against intrusions magical and mundane, giving The Ward its name.
Once the renovations were complete, a few students hand-picked were hand-picked to attend her re-opened academy.
