The Bearers of Knowledge are a well-known Order. Followers of Aragen, they dedicate their lives to Knowledge. Prohibited from using violence except in the defense of knowledge, self, or others, they wander the world in search of wisdom, be it forgotten or new. They serve an important role in the Aragenite Church as they are mostly responsible for the sharing of knowledge between the temples.

Bearers of Knowledge are among the most intelligent and perceptive monks around. They often give lectures on subjects ranging from history to engineering to philosophy to literature. They usually travel in pairs, as two see, hear, and remember more than one.

The head of the order is called the Loremaster and resides in the Keep of the Tome, deep within one of Layonara's mountain ranges.
