The closest thing to a headquarters of the Maester Alliance on [[CraftLang|Craftlang]] was the library officially named (in the toki pona language) '''tomo pi mute lipu pi ike sona''', from which the english version is derived - '''Pikesona Heretical Grand Library'''. The reason for deeming the library "heretical" or to be containing "bad knowledge" was the fact that it mainly contained books written in english, not in any constructed languages - the focus of this particular server - nor about anything related to the server. The [https://www.reddit.com/r/CivLibraries/comments/1l9zd1/pikesona_collection_28th_of_august_2013/ collection of the library] was mainly made up of books originating from [[Civcraft#Civcraft_1.0|Civcraft 1.0]]. The library was located in the small town of Mokuhr, the most noteworthy settlement on the server.

=== Civcraft 2.0 ===
After losing momentum at the start of the iteration, the Alliance resurfaced in 2014 and, led by [[Marcus_Flaminius]], initially established a headquarters - the '''[https://wwwold.reddit.com/r/MaesterAlliance/comments/1vjblq/the_time_of_gathering_is_at_hand_maester_alliance/ Omen Assembly]''' - at the [https://www.reddit.com/r/a:t5_2zt4v/ Omen Facility], an unsuccessful development project by [[Dr_Oracle]].
 
The second headquarters of the Maesters in [[Civcraft 2.0]] was the '''[https://old.reddit.com/r/MaesterAlliance/comments/2v9vlh/renders_of_the_tenpo_assembly/ Tenpo Assembly]''', located far north from the Omen Assembly, close to [[Saraliana]]. Itwhich was named "after our ageless nature" and the distant location "that has been forgotten by time" by using the Toki Pona word for time.<ref name=":3" /> This headquarters was erected on a sizeable land claim located far north from the Omen Assembly, which was offered to the Alliance by [[Ogel6000]], the leader of [[Saraliana]]. The land claim was soon neighboured by [[Garundistan]], a tiny nation with strong ties to [[CraftLang|Craftlang]].
 
To better protect the large land claim, the Maesters eventually also applied for membership in the [[North East Alliance]] and remained part of it as an Observer State/Member until the end of Civcraft 2.0. Additionally, close to the end of the iteration, there were also some discussions with nearby [[Eterna]] of collaboration, most notably to make use of their newly established Nether factory, which made travel to such a distant location considerably faster from more populated regions. The difference in travel time was enough to make it reasonable to consider building a public grand library on the existing land claim of the Alliance, but the iteration ended before any such plans could be realised. Instead, the friendly relations with Eterna led on to the Maester Alliance joining the [[Heartland Federation]] for [[CivTemp|CivTemp 2.0]].
