- "Overseeing its purity are the Wisdoms, such as myself, who are adept in the alchemical mysteries."
- ―Wisdom Hallyne
Wisdom is a title held by fully-trained members of the Alchemists' Guild, commonly known as "pyromancers".
Wisdoms themselves do not prepare Wildfire, which members of the order call 'the Substance'. Such risky task is reserved for Acolytes, while transportation and storage is reserved for Apprentices. Wisdoms inspect the result of the Acolytes work to ensure the Substance's purity.
