The Enchiridion Valentia was the cornerstone document and archive of knowldge of Faendryl demon summoning.
The Enchiridion Valentia was first conceived by Abdullahi Hazalred Faendryl, who had become dismayed at the injuries and deaths that the unorganized demon summoning research was inflicting upon Faendryl summoners. Thus, he began a centuries long project of organizing notes and information to create a practical and reliable base of information for other Faendryl. This was in the time before Despana and the Undead War, and approximately before some 20,000 years ago.
However, the Enchiridion Valentia project did not gain momentum until the decree by the twentieth Patriarch, Eidiol Jivanatha Faendryl, that all further research on demon summoning be deposited with the project. In essence, Patriarch Eidiol Jivanatha had decreed the Enchiridion Valentia as the core repository of all Faendryl knowledge on demon summoning. Furthermore, the decree contained the requirement that all valence traveling summoners must first consult the Enchiridion Valentia before departing, and submit a full report upon returning from their particular valence. After a number of centuries, this requirement was dropped, as the prestige of contributing to the repository grew to a high honor.
The Enchiridion Valentia was composed of a repository and of a single volume. The repository was overseen by three scholars, known as "Scholar of the Valences," and were appointed by the Patriarch for lifetime seats. The scholars were placed in charge of taxonomy and organization of all knowledge and discoveries. A secondary purpose of the repository was the production of copies of the knowledge, which were then placed in secret locations as a security matter. The scholars were also placed in charge of printing bound copies of the information, which often was established centuries before without change.
