A Proposal on the Designation of the Recently Observed Wisdom Stars
---

Submitted by Sepyhie, Scholar of the Firmament, for review by the Grand Library of Sapience

Esteemed Curators of the Grand Library,

In my recent nights of celestial observation, I have found my thoughts unsettled by the present disorder among the upper firmament. The so called "Wisdom stars" eight of them, bright and distinct in their movement, remain cruelly unnamed, mere placeholders upon our charts. This is a disservice both to the scholars who study them and to the stars themselves.

Having undertaken personal observation, translation, and comparative astromantic study, I have chosen to provide a preliminary taxonomy for these luminous bodies. Each has revealed to me a clear duality of nature. They bless and burden alike, instructing the wise that all virtues cast shadows of their own. I have therefore rendered each name in the venerable tongue of Kalsu, a language one does have a fondness for, in addition to my own modern adaptation, that the words may carry both poetry and precision as is fitting from its namer.

Wisdom 1: Sepadospesilnis - Dexterity / Wisdom
A star that sparkles with restless vanity. Clever, graceful, and entirely sure of itself.
Wisdom 2: Sepydu - Wisdom / Intelligence
The star that proves intellect can be overvalued when true wisdom lies in intuition.
Wisdom 3: Abia udave - Wisdom / Strength
A stoic light, unbending and knowing. Where strength fails, wisdom steps forwards.
Wisdom 4: Dudavufe - Wisdom / Dexterity
Motion is not always mastery. The sharp hand fumbles where the still mind endures.
Wisdom 5: Ozidazdu - Intelligence / Wisdom
Wisdom restrains; intellect explores. The star burns for discovery, no matter what the discovery may wound.
Wisdom 6: Ebsemor - Constitution / Wisdom
The stoic light that suffers to persist. A reminder that fortitude often outlives understanding.
Wisdom 7: Abisorna - Strength / Wisdom
The firm hand that reshapes the wise. Thought may guide, but it is the hand that carves the flesh.
Wisdom 8: Dudavesobraldu - Wisdom / Constitution
A frail star of insight born from weakness. Those who cannot act must think deeply indeed.

I submit these designations not as final decree, though they are, of course, fitting. But simply as a foundation upon which more pedestrian scholars may build. If the Grand Library finds merit in my naming, I shall gladly accept any monetary reward for my work.
