Candelagraphos

Last updated 2026-07-14

The Candelagraphos is a school of the Intelligentsia Guild, they work as the printing department of the guild.[1]

Description

The Candelagraphos is the printing department of the guild. They are made of countless authors, transcribers, typists, programmers, and workers who produce books. This school is founded upon the noble gesture of altruism, surrendering selfish scientific research and throwing themselves at the grand service of sharing wisdom with more people. The science of the Intelligentsia Guild is gathered here and organized into books to be published and sold to all the worlds. The most famous series is definitely the Traveler's Guide.

History

During Louis Fleming's retiring speech, Fuli made THEIR first appearance to the Interastral Peace Corporation and gave memories of the Borderstar Trade War. It was the Candelagraphos that wrote down three paragraphs about the memories, forming three revelations.

  • Nous' calculation: The universe will undergo three unchangeable moments.
  • Finality's prediction: A silk accessory suitable for women will bring about the end.
  • Enigmata's riddle: THEY leave no question, but the answers are "blood" and "flower."

The Intelligentsia Guild was eventually able to track down the origins of each of these memories.[2]

In 2104 AE, Fomenko — a Candelagraphos scribe — obtained a mute parrot. She took great care of it, but when it died, Fomenko made quills out of the ten outermost feathers of the parrot's wings. One of these was for herself, while the other nine were stored in a vault. She used her quills to annotate for an entire Amber Era, preserving vast swathes of ancient documents on the verge of being lost. It wasn't until people went over Fomenko's legacy that they finally realized that the scribe had been writing nothing but lies with her quills.[3]

In 2147 AE, the Candelagraphos archivist Nelson arrived along with others to record the history of Penacony. During that time he would join up with The Watchmaker and document his observations and occasionally assisted with clerical tasks. Nelson disagreed with The Watchmaker's use of the Clockie cartoon to preserve Penacony's true history however he came to realize the strengths of the cartoon and how it encouraged others to read into the true history. Many of Nelson's works would be taken into the Penacony Grand Library where they now remain overshadowed by Manga and comics. At the end of his life he would give up his bodily form and become a Memetic Entity, the last of the archivers in Penacony.[4]

Currently, a Candelagraphos scholar named Cleo is working with Herta as the editor for her upcoming book. The manuscripts can be found and read throughout Herta Space Station.[1][5]
