The Genius Society and Intelligentsia Guild — two organizations we keep hearing about but know little about. They are probably places where highly intelligent individuals get together and research!

This exclusive from Pom-Pom's Intel contains so much "knowledge"!

=== What is the Philosophy of the Genius Society? ===
There are those who claim that the Genius Society is made up of oddballs, madmen, lone wolves, geniuses with autistic tendencies[(Sorry, was there no other way to phrase this? Especially because the point is that they have a singular focus and can be obsessive, which is a much clearer and more specific way to discuss their behaviours.)], and those with social challenges. They continually produce astonishing discoveries, yet the world at large remains ignorant of that.

On the path of seeking knowledge, they are both solitary seekers and relentless pursuers with no concern for the endpoint: <color #7092be>"The answer to the universe is beyond the limits of mortal wisdom."</color> — Only geniuses who can clearly acknowledge this conclusion can break free from the shackles of worldly curiosity, becoming true members of the Genius Society.

> **Herta:** Precisely the reason true geniuses are few and far between.

==== Intelligentsia Guild====
{{ :external:pompom.intel:pompom-intel-5-2.jpg?200|}}
//— A research organization empowered by the Erudition//

=== How to Join the Intelligentsia Guild ===
Only the cream of the crop can become members of the Genius Society, but the Intelligentsia Guild wastes not. The Guild is willing to accept all beings from the infinite universe who seek to learn, as well as to provide all that is needed for the full pursuit of knowledge. The scholars reached a consensus: <color #7092be>"The only way to surpass the limitations of individuals is through an academic network that facilitates the exchange of knowledge and resources."</color>

=== What is the Philosophy of the Intelligentsia Guild? ===
In comparison with the regular researchers, the Intelligentsia Guild is more of a for-profit organization. The Intelligentsia Guild advocates that <color #7092be>"all knowledge must be circulated like currency."</color> Therefore, although there are different schools that specialize in different subjects within the Guild, everyone is actively engaged with one another with no isolationsism. Members trade knowledge for wisdom and formulas for recipes, seeking to achieve mastery.

=== What is the Relationship Between the Intelligentsia Guild and the Interastral Peace Corporation? ===
The Interastral Peace Corporation sponsored the Intelligentsia Guild due to their open attitude toward knowledge. Leveraging the corporation's strong capabilities and transplanetary technology, the guild's scholars traveled across various worlds to gather all valuable knowledge as tradable commodities.

> **Dr Ratio:** Knowledge should not be monopolized by geniuses!
