Preservation and Transmission of Knowledge

The foundation of Duskaran education lies in the preservation of ancient knowledge brought by the Stellar Horizon and the continuous development of survival practices suited to their world. Much of humanity’s past is stored in sacred data crystals, advanced digital archives containing scientific texts, technical manuals, and cultural records. These crystals are curated by Archivists, a caste devoted to maintaining and interpreting the knowledge within. Access to the archives is ritualized and limited, with Archivists carefully distributing fragments of information to settlements based on communal readiness and needs.

In parallel, oral traditions play a vital role. Storytelling and song are indispensable tools for passing down survival techniques, cultural values, and historical narratives. Each settlement has its Lorekeepers, skilled individuals who memorize and perform these stories during communal gatherings, ensuring that knowledge remains alive and accessible even without technological support.

Education begins with communal learning circles, where children are introduced to basic survival skills, history, and ethics. Advanced training takes the form of apprenticeships, with elders teaching trades such as farming, weatherworking, or wind engineering. Traveling teachers, known as Windwalkers, move between settlements to share specialized knowledge and promote cultural exchange, bridging the gaps between communities.
