Gatherings: The Grand Symposium—held every five years during the Radiant Zenith, where all Star-Academies presented breakthroughs, debated theory, and refined the Codex Aetheris. This tradition persists in the modern Mystaran Symposia of the Mists.
Elders: Star-Sages served as both governors and supreme mentors, personally guiding the most promising apprentices and adjudicating intellectual disputes.
