Seminarium

The Seminarium is the mage school of Moonshade on Serpent Isle in Ultima VII Part Two.

Description
Young children with mage talents are taught here in the arcane arts, where their discovery of their talents won't cause unwanted property damage. Built into a mountain and at the edge of the city, the young ongoing mages have all the peace they need to listen to their teacher's explanations and conduct their own magical experiments. The school does have a horrible reputation outside of Moonshade in the general population, due to the mages' habit of simply kidnapping children with magical talent, thus ripping families apart.

History
It is not known when exactly the institution came into being, but the reputation of the child-kindnapping mages was already firmly entrenched by the time the Avatar visited it in Ultima VII Part Two, speaking with the instructor Fedabiblio on the topic of a replacement spellbook. After gaining said replacement book, the Avatar later returned to the Seminarium to solve the case of the missing Edrin. When Shamino the Anarch later laid Moonshade to ruins, the pupils of the Seminarium were lucky and survived the carnage, but the institution lost its purpose in the process.
