Considered one of the most important relics of the old Protectorate, the Gaia University is the largest higher education establishment of the Haven Federation (and perhaps the Fringe) and its primary research university. With a massive complex as old as the Fringe Protectorate itself, the Gaia University boasts one of the finest education systems in the Fringe, led by the Headmistress Liliana Bright, the granddaughter of the education-enthusiast Grand Protector Esther Bright of the Fringe Protectorate. The Gaia University owns the famed Haven Museum of Natural History and Culture, the Headmistress being an avid collector of historical artifacts.
