Of Divine Orders
From the heart of the Scutum-Centaurus Arm to your primitive optical receptors, SEIDO is the premier academic institution for Type-III and Type-IV civilizations.
The Sophon Expansion Institute of Divine Orders (SEIDO) was established 4.2 million stellar cycles ago by the Silicate Hive-Mind of Centaurus-VII.
Originally chartered as a modest Dyson-Sphere maintenance guild, the Institute transcended physical boundaries when an undergraduate accidentally inverted a localized gravity well during a hyper-warp final examination, resulting in the creation of our current sub-dimensional campus.
Today, SEIDO serves as the premier educational and observation hub for the galaxy. While our core pedagogy remains focused on High-Energy Astrophysics, Timeline Manipulation, and Dimensional Folding, we have recently opened our doors to lower-tier species (such as carbon-based bipeds from the Sol System) primarily for anthropological observation and low-cost reactor maintenance.
* Carbon-based population fluctuates rapidly depending on cafeteria supply chain issues.
