Lisette, Dean of the Root argues that life is sacred, and life is what keeps nature in balance. Witherbloom's two deans are possibly the most antagonistic towards each other out of all colleges, as their debate is focused on the purpose of life and death.

Though both disagree on their applications, both acknowledge the historical importance of armies and combat, and so students are expected to have at least some level of martial understanding, with many using spirits, golems, and artifacts from the past as part of their combat.Īcademics at Lorehold may specialise in a variety of different areas, such as becoming an Archaeoscribe who records historical events for posterity, a Dustspeaker who can communicate with spirits to learn of the past, or a Ruin Shaman, who use their magic to dive deeper into tombs and caves in displays of practical archaeology. While Augusta believes societies and systemic structures can improve over time, Plargg feels it's the strength and drive of individuals that build the future. Though Lorehold is home to archaeologists, artificers, linguists, and art historians (where it sees much overlap with the students of Prismari), a large part of Lorehold's identity is its focus on military prowess. Students may work with Augusta on analysing the past through documents to paint a picture of history, or they may go on dangerous, tomb-raiding field trips with Plargg.

These debates are represented by Lorehold's two Deans, the human Augusta is the Dean of Order, while the orc Plargg is the Dean of Chaos.
