Lore
The purpose of Docents is to advise and aid the warforged who utilize them. According to Shira, docents were originally designed to hold quori spirits, providing a refuge from the spiritual change that destroyed the quori of the last age and paved the way for the coming of the Dreaming Dark.
Shira claims to be the sole success of the docent program and the last survivor of the previous age of Dal Quor. (It might be true, it might not be...)
