# World State: ch-20

## NPC Memory
- The Student Body: Harmonious/Empowered — The distinction between "Spire" and "Pyre" students has been formally abolished. They utilize "Grey" magic for construction and healing.

## Faction Attitudes
- The Solas-Pyre Academy: Fully Integrated — A single entity with a unified curriculum focusing on equilibrium.

- The Starfall Accord: A signed legal and magical treaty ensuring the schools remain unified regardless of future political shifts.
