Public Historical Record
Protectorate College was established in 3257 I.E. on a different planet, where it remained for more than eight centuries. Repeated raids by rival forces eventually led to its relocation to Sora X in 4100 I.E.
The move brought the College under the protection of the Kingdom of Avi-da. King Orlethus, an ancestor of the Nador royal line, welcomed the institution into his kingdom, beginning a longstanding relationship between the Protectorate and House Nador.
On Sora X, the College adopted concealment technology and strengthened its defensive measures. Its hidden campus became known for its formidable security and the difficulty of locating the institution itself.
Beyond its defenses, the College maintains a demanding training tradition. Candidates progress through successive stages before qualifying for Protector service, and those who complete the program may go on to serve individuals whose safety carries significant personal and political importance.
Archive Annotation
Among the College’s most recognized landmarks is the Hall of Renowned, where the achievements and service of distinguished Protectors are preserved. Its memorials represent the ideals to which generations of candidates aspire, while also reflecting the College’s enduring judgments about duty, sacrifice, and service.
