The Academy of Raya Lucaria is the great school of glintstone sorcery. It stands on a cliff in the middle of the lake in Liurnia of the Lakes. A sealed barrier blocks its gates, so an Academy Glintstone Key is needed to enter. The Red Wolf of Radagon guards the halls, and Rennala, Queen of the Full Moon waits in the Grand Library. Most runs reach the academy after Stormveil Castle.

Lore
The academy was founded by the first glintstone sorcerers. Azur and Lusat studied the primeval current, the magic of the stars. Their research turned young sorcerers into Graven Masses, horrible lumps of fused bodies.
Rennala of the Full Moon later charmed the academy with her moon magic. She became its master and raised the house of Caria to royalty. She limited the dangerous study of the primeval current and sent Azur and Lusat away. Sorceress Sellen was furious and was expelled for turning her fellow students into Graven Schools.
Rennala married Radagon, but he left her to become the second Elden Lord. Her heart broke and she fell into grief. The academy saw its chance and locked her in the Grand Library. It then turned against the Carians, and war spread across Liurnia. After the Shattering, the academy declared itself neutral and sealed its gates against all outsiders.
