Worthy Warlord
Hiya, recently wrote up a submission for the Bryn'adul faction to utilize. Decided that it would probably go best into the Lore submissions, but I noted that it didn't inherently fit any of the templates provided there. Where would I go about placing this lore/what template should I utilize for it?
The methods by which information is inscribed have been referenced Here. This essentially just covers more organizational information for how knowledge is spread among the many Bryn'adul worlds and deals with the widespread use of the memory/info sharing. Any help about where to put this would be appreciated.

The method by which the Draelvasier race manages to communicate over vast distances may vary depending on available resources. Whether by transmitting signals across the stars to one another utilizing vast arrays, or whether dispatching a courier, the information will inevitably end its journey by being encoded into one of the many artifacts utilized for much of the race's information.
While these artifacts allow for the almost instantaneous perusal of material, there is still a great deal of artisanship and work which goes into preparing them for the general population. The artifacts are usually capable of providing enough information to fully cover a topic unless it is particularly extensive, but the information encoded within must be done so by an adequately-trained force sensitive or else it risks either corruption -- it will be unable to be understood -- or else it will lead to a great deal of confusion and detriment for its reader.
Upon receiving information, the inscriber must meditate on what they have learned, and imprint these memories directly into the artifact utilizing specialized tools which themselves have been imbued with the Force. Any breach in concentration could lead to unpleasant or unnecessary memories being attached to the artifact -- as they transfer directly from the scribe through the tool and onto the device -- and thus eliminate much of the efficiency of the finished product. While all members of the Draelvasier race are capable of reading and of interacting with these tools, it is a necessary step of the creation process for a professional to organize and prepare more extensive or complex memories that will be used by the general populace.
In the event of failure to properly organize these memories, they may come out jumbled and completely out-of-step. For instance, an encoded artifact that would normally grant its user knowledge of the inner-workings and maintenance of a Spiker rifle may transmit memory of the rifle already being disassembled as opposed to showcasing how the machine would need to be taken apart. While such "reading" is instantaneous for its reader, then, a substantial amount of time must be spent carefully collecting facts and impressing them into the device.
News about events taking place throughout the dominion of the Bryn'adul also requires this same level of coordination and effort. Without it, tactical analysis by an Emissary for multiple battles may be accidentally condensed into a single analysis and thus confuse any forces who might've reinforced them. Due to the important nature of many of these artifacts, and the importance of clarity in their message, it is somewhat rare to see less than critical knowledge encoded by any professional scribe.
