History
Founded in the year 1329 by Ulric Heartvale the Royal Academy was created as a means to provide Knotside with a way to compete with the other Kingdoms when it came to education. Rather than losing their best and brightest to Thrane and the Dredarian Empire he wanted to keep them and draw new bright minds to the city by means of an Academy. The school was built with the infrastructure that allows it to support many types of students, from those wishing to study Arcana, Religion, Art, the Knighthood, or even simple programs that would connect people with apprenticeships through the Guilds at Shadow Down . All programs are free with the only charges coming from those who wish to pursue specialized courses or higher education past getting a typical degree. For who wish to enter the higher programs they can apply for scholarships to allow them to attend tuition free based on testing and performance, apply for sponsorships from the nobility through various city programs, or simply pay outright.
