The '''Cult of Transcendent Flesh''' is a group of [[Transmology|transmologists]] who alter themselves deeply and permanently.
The [[Seal of Knowledge]] can be found on the way to the top of [[Avechna's Peak]], in the Cave of Knowledge. The Seal of Knowledge is a silver disc, approximately the size of a small shield. Runes are etched around its rim that glow with an inner power. In the centre of the shield is the image of an eye, the iris of which is a deep violet that gleams and shimmers. Disturbingly, the eye watches everything around it, occasionally blinking and focusing on that which comes before its gaze. The seal floats in the air of its own power and thrums with a lifeforce that makes the very air around it blur.


*They trace back a group of [[Illuminati]] extremists who were exiled a few years before the [[Taint Wars]]. They sought to create avatars of the [[Fleshpot]]s known as "Paragons".
The Seal of Knowledge, like all of the [[:Category:Living Seals|Living Seals]], is composed of and empowered by the divine essence of the [[Vernal God]]s; in this case, the Seal belongs to [[D'varsha]], the First.
<blockquote>"Their reverence of the Fleshpots bordered on fanatical, and members would risk incurable insanity and psychosis by transforming and augmenting their bodies with transmology permanently, a practice considered overly dangerous and self-destructive by most practitioners of the transmological arts and primarily used historically in experimentation on traitors and prisoners." - Chixieya Ninchi ({{News|Events|499}})</blockquote>
*With the dissolution of the modern Illuminati guild, this group sees itself as the only legitimate inheritors of the Illuminati mantle and legacy.
*In 629 CE, a figure arrived in the city with a beard of tentacles. The figure sought information about "Paragons" before snapping its own neck. ({{News|Events|499}})


[[Category: Factions]]
When the Seals are weakened, the mortals of [[Lusternia]] participate in a series of challenges designed to restore their power. In the end, just one mortal holds the [[Staff of Ascension]] and becomes a God. During this event, mortals participate in the Challenge of Knowledge, a brutally difficult quiz on the mythology, history, and geography of the [[Basin]].
 
==Bearers of the Seal of Knowledge==
The following mortals have won the Challenge of Knowledge and become Seal Bearers:
