====== The Scholar ======
A god of knowledge and learning. By contrast to the Teacher, who is all about cooperatively seeking knowledge and understanding as a means of achieving peace, the Scholar is more about discovery and self-development of knowledge through competition with others.
To worship the Scholar is to recognise the value of knowledge and to be prepared to push oneself competitively to further one's own development.
