Professor Yearn-for-Dawn, Laureate, has a peculiar reputation in the seminary. He's strict and demanding, and senior students tend to consider him scary. Other professors tend to keep their distance from him. But it seems that the consensus is that any student under his mentorship is assumed to be reasonably successful. And any work reviewed by Yearn-for-Dawn is assumed to have nothing left to correct or criticise.
So taking him on as the curator for one's work is seen as a high-effort-high-reward choice. So long as one can in fact even be accepted into such collaboration.
If the spicy mixture above was not enough, there're also some rumours about the Star-Scatterers dynasty. Rumours that during the Ingast revolution, this clan tried to play both sides, feeding information both to the royals and the rebels and hoping to come out on top no matter who wins, and that because of this the dynasty was never accepted back into Ingast even after the dust settled. But there's no definitive proof. Still, some of the other nobles are wary - wary today in Tern City, as they were vary back in the day in the Hvirati Dominion, where most of the family stayed the longest.
