	This creates somewhat of an impasse between the three churches, to the point that priests of some factions were not welcome in the regions of others and vice versa. However while this religious schism seem to follow [[Heresy\|real-world examples of faiths splintering]], one forgets that in Faerun the deities answer prayers through magic, so strictly speaking none of the factions are wrong because Oghma grants spells to all of his followers.

	Another separate faction from the Shining South revere Oghma under the feminine guise of '''Curna''', who they consider to be an aspect of the unifying world spirit they refer to as '''Adama'''. This sect is barely involved with the politics of the others and has a more common sense approach to knowledge, dealing primarily with knowledge of day-to-day current events.

	As mentioned, the church of Oghma is split into several factions: the first is the '''Orthodox Church of Oghma''', who believe that their <s>Pope</s> Grand Patriarch went missing during the [[Time of Troubles]]. They still believe that he either serves Oghma directly on the outer planes or has ascended to a semi-divine statues, so they have refused to elect a new one until his fate has been determined. This faction believes that knowledge should be shared freely, no matter its content.

 Oghma is served by several other deities, including [[Deneir]] and [[Gond]] who are collectively known as '''The Deities of Knowledge and Invention'''.

-Oghma ''(along with his servant deities)'' inhabit the '''House of Knowledge''', which despite its name is not actually a house at all, but a campus of buildings located in a forest. In the [[Great Wheel]] cosmology this was originally in the [[Outlands]] but has since moved to become its own realm entirely.

In the [[Great Wheel]] cosmology this is in the [[Outlands]], but in the World Tree this is its own realm entirely.
 Much like a university campus, the variety of buildings are dedicated to the preservation and transmission of all knowledge and hold records of practically every spell, fact, recipe, blueprint, novel or conceivable concept known to creation. Probably making it a more useful repository of magical lore than [[Mystra]]s realm of '''Dweomerheart'''. Despite the fact that the gods each have their own spheres of influence, no region of the House belongs to any god in particular, although they all have their favourite locations within it.
