Martines Dreamwalking Academy
The Martines Dreamwalking Academy (MDA for short) is the first dedicated dreamwalking academy on Erudite. It is located in Griffin City on the contiennt of Swen.
History
Following the incident of the Second Rupture nearly destroying the world, Maria Martines spent the next five years studying on her own the effects of the Second Rupture as well as continuing the research done by SomniLabs. She traveled abroad to consult multiple different dreamwalking groups. Her research eventually took her to Kageshi where she met her distant cousin Tsuki Fujiwara as well as Kilroy Roberts, the grandson of Kilroy M. Roberts – a scientist that created machines out of the mystical blue sap. Through a series of coordinated efforts, they established the Dreamwalking Thesis to explain dreamwalking scientifically to the wider world. This discovery lead to them obtaining a number of international government grants to establish an academy where scientists and students alike could continue where SomniLabs left off.
The academy was named not just after Maria specifically for her role in stopping Antithesis but the entire Martines family line honoring their actions to bring peace to the dreamwalking world throughout the ages.
