Apodromios (pure clique)

The Sages of Purity or 'Apodromios' represent the many preachers, philosophers and theologians that make up the spiritual core of the order. Dedicating themselves to the pursuit of wisdom, many Sages spend much of their time traveling Aeras, both preaching Katharitos' teachings of Purity as Love, as well as furthering their own understanding by discussing with (and debating) with both priests, philosophers and common men. Even when not traveling, they still use much of their time discussing and sharing their experiences with each other, though they also spend a good amount of time in their order medidating on their travels and on Katharitos' teachings. The Sages' Katharite beliefs are thus often quite eclectic, incorporating both various beliefs they have stumbled upon duing their own travels as well as those transmitted from other Katharites.
