"Based," says a fellow Alchemical scholar. She marks the date on her calendar, and resolves to attend.

Galina Georgina does not cry. This is for many reasons. It is unbecoming, especially with her complexion. The tears aren't as lovely as the ones worn by her darker-haired, olive-skinned friends, and only turn her skin an ugly, blotchy red. Galina can never be ugly. So it's not crying, what she does. I am not crying, she tells herself. I am not crying. I am not crying. The girl in the mirror on her desk watches her, puffy-eyed and ugly. The documents pile higher as word from the war floods in. Death and victory. The rosary draped over her lampshade is comical, shining holy light on the stories of terror and violence. But today, Galina doesn't think about God. She stares down at the ink on paper, smudged with the not-tears, impossible to read. "Honestly," Galina told herself. "I barely knew him. We've only spoken a few times." Today, Galina thinks about the future. She does not think about what he was to her, but what he could have been. "I want you to be my daughter," Heinrich had told her on an oft-remembered night, in the heart of Merryweather. She had wanted it too. Had wanted him to be everything her own father was not; wise, encouraging, filled with wit and advice. Present. "I won't be Prince for a long time," Johannes had said. "I hope." War and hope do not mix well. Galina Georgina does not cry. This is for many reasons. She does not cry at death, or failure, or pain. Crying is a waste of time, and time is always in short supply. So it's not crying, what she does. Instead, Galina writes.

It shall follow the tradition of many such celebrations: First is the wreath ceremony, wherein a wreath of flowers will be bestowed upon me. They will be especially chosen for both their symbolism and their beauty, and are a symbol of good wishes for the future. Should guests elect to bring gifts, they may present these then. Then will come the first dance, wherein I will share the final dance of my youth with my father, Malcolm. After this, my guests (and any suitors) will join us on the dance floor, for a night of revelry. It is my wish that my Hauchmetvas be themed around the chivalric tales of eld. The ball shall be a costume ball, with a theme of princesses, princes, knights, dragons, et cetera to be observed by the guests, if at all possible. Of course, in absence of a costume, guests are still greatly encouraged to attend, as revelry is for all, not only those with fancy outfits. Young men wishing to be suitors may select a branch of flowers from those provided at the door, and may offer them to me during the ball to signal their interest in me. At the end of the evening is the burning of youth. The majority of the guests will depart, and I will select three items that represent my childhood, explain their significance, and then ceremonially burn them to represent my journey into adulthood. ୨⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯✧♡✧⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯୧ WHERE?

"Wahoo!" Said the young Mistress of the Wardrobe, beaming down upon her article.

"WAHOO!" Said Galina Georgina, now officially Mistress of the Wardrobe at the ripe old age of seventeen. She bustled over to her mother's office, and proudly shoved the missive in her face. @ibiou "Mamej- look, mamej! Yam the youngest Mistress of the Wardrobe ever!"

Self Portrait. Manon Yvaine Godunov. Oil on canvas. 1938. •─────────────────────•✦•─────────────────────• It is the depths of a long, long winter. There is no wind to whistle through eaves, or crickets to chirp. The night is still and cold and silent. The halls of the Alchemist are still and cold and silent. There is a letter delivered by a bone-white owl. It is still and cold and silent. The letter lands on the desk of one ALYONA RHETTA SVIATOVNA GODUNOV. It is addressed to her. The handwriting is familiar. •─────────────────────•✦•─────────────────────• ALYONA: I am dead. You will find my body on the north shore of the river. You may say what you wish about how I passed. I have not decided how I will do it. I leave you my library. A key is enclosed. FIND MISCHA. Do not seek if you do not wish to know. M.Y.G. P.S. “FORGIVE ME. FOR ALL THE THINGS I DID, BUT MOSTLY FOR THE ONES THAT I DID NOT.” •─────────────────────•✦•─────────────────────• “THIS IS NOT WHERE OUR STORY ENDS.

Galina Georgina sat down at her desk with a hum, scanning over the list of events. She then set to penning a brief note in dark blue ink. When it had dried, Galina enclosed both the note and the flyer in an envelope, and sent it off.

✩ FROM THE OFFICE OF THE ALCHEMIST: ✩ ✩ AN INTRODUCTION TO ALCHEMICAL THEORY ✩ VOL. I •─────────────────────•✦•─────────────────────• •─────────────────────•✦•─────────────────────• PUBLISHED ON THE 2nd OF The Deep Cold, 1947. BEING, BY NATURE OF ITS NAME AND WRITING, A RECORDED DIALOGUE BETWEEN TEACHER AND STUDENT ON THE BASICS OF ALCHEMICAL THEORY, PUBLISHED FOR THE PURPOSE OF INTRODUCING THE CONCEPTS AND IDEAS HEREIN TO A WIDER AUDIENCE. •───•✩•───• [!] THIS DOCUMENT CAN NOT BE USED TO TEACH ALCHEMY TO THOSE WITHOUT A VALID [FA]. IT IS PURELY FOR FLAVOR WHEN TEACHING. [!] •─────────────────────•✦•─────────────────────• MAGISTRA: What is Alchemy? DISCIPULUS: If I recall, it is to the material world as the magic is to the divine. And not conquered - navigated. M: One, no, two, yes. Magic is taking divine power and using it in the material or emotional worlds. Alchemy is transforming the material into the emotional, and using those pieces to create something material again. It is fundamentally transformative. It does not add or remove matter or energy from the universe. Magic, however, often does, because the Void, and the Aengudaemons are not from within our universe. They are external - divine. Yes? D: Yes. Transformative rather than additive. M: Good! The fundamental goal of Alchemy, do you remember what it's called? Magnum Opus, or Azoth. The Magnum Opus takes a different shape for every soul who pursues it, but at its fundament, the goal is the same: To surpass Alchemy, by means of Alchemy. To fundamentally create, or to fundamentally destroy. It is impossible, and yet its impossibility is what makes it so desirable. It is not so much a literal goal, as it is a metaphorical one - transformation of the soul. Regardless, that sort of thing comes much later down the line. But I want you to keep it in mind, as you learn. D: Intangible objective: kept in mind. M: Why do you want to learn Alchemy? D: I suppose just for the sake of knowing, really. M: Knowledge is power. Why do you want power? D: It’s in Descendant nature. Life short. Do much. M: Dig further. Why do much, when do little easier? D: Nobody remembers those who do little. And to be remembered might be to live a little longer, even after death. M: Precisely. Compared to the Creator, or the Universe, or all of Time, our lives are infinitely short, and infinitely meaningless. Even Elven ones. It is the fundamental desire of all Descendantkind to be remembered. Now, we have established why you want to learn this. There are two kinds of Alchemists. Have I spoken on this before? D: I don’t believe so. M: There are Potioncrafters, and there are Alchemical Philosophers. I don't need to tell you which one I am. Potioncrafters are concerned with the physical acts of Alchemy. The making of potions, salves, salts, et cetera. Alchemical Philosophers are concerned with the theoretical. I couldn't care less about herbs and bottles. It is Alchemical thinking that I care for. Nobody, to your earlier point, is going to be remembered for brewing Tanglefoot. D: Cookbooks are cheap. Teachers are a rarity. M: So, we carry on. The processes of Alchemy parallel the traits of the two halves of the Magnum Opus. First, you must destroy. You must break your reagents down into their component parts. That is what we will begin with. Consider every reagent like a structure made of bricks. It is whole, but if you take it apart, you may re-use the bricks for another purpose. These bricks are called Symbols. The bricks come in five colors, and thirty-eight shapes. The colors are called Signs. The thirty-eight shapes are each of the various Symbols. 'Balance,' for example. D: That’s a lot of bricks. M: Yes. You do not need to learn them all right away. It comes with time. The shapes correspond to the specific function of each Symbol. They can function both metaphorically or literally. Light may make something glow, or it make enlighten someone. Yes? D: Metaphorical and literal. It’s language! M: Exactly. The colors, the Signs, are correlated to the five elements. Air, Water, Earth, Fire, and Aether. If the Symbols themselves are the words, the Signs are the intonation. They change the meaning in more abstract, vaguer ways. When you're trying to figure out what Symbols you may get from a certain reagent, the general pattern is that the Sign will be determined by its environment, and the Symbols will be determined by the reagent’s functions. A reagent will generally contain anywhere from two to four different Symbols, in varying amounts. D: Environment to the Sign, Symbols to the function. Generally. M: Generally. When speaking about specific Symbols, the Sign is treated like an adjective. For example- Earth: Vigour, or Aether: Swiftness. The process of taking the reagent apart is called Extraction. There are five methods of Extraction, depending on the Sign you wish to produce: Air, Water, Earth, Fire, and Mundane. Aether does have its own means of Extraction as well, but it's almost exactly the same as Mundane. For any given reagent, it can be Extracted either according to its Sign, or by the Mundane method. Using the Mundane method will remove the Signs from the Symbols. D: Mundane or elemental, got it. M: Most recipes use primarily or entirely Mundane Symbols. But you may encounter elemental ones, so I'll teach you all the Extractions. They are all different, but they all serve the same purpose: to purify the reagent. They break it down into its separate parts, and the Alchemist sorts the Symbols out from the waste. The wheat from the chaff. In the later steps of brewing, these pieces are reassembled into something new. Next time, we'll learn Extractions. For now, I will leave you with your first homework assignment. D: Homework, excellent. M: Find as many Alchemical reagents as you can - at least three - and try to figure out what Symbols they might contain. Make sure you know why you think they are what they are. You do not need to be correct. The thinking is more important here. D: Justify the work, even if I’m not sure of the answer. M: Don't justify. Just be sure you're able to recount your thinking, like we did with why you wanted to learn Alchemy. You are not trying to convince me. Just to observe your own thought process. D: Do the work for the sake of figuring out how I do the work. M: It will be difficult. But once you learn to think like an Alchemist, there is nothing else like it. •─────────────────────•✦•─────────────────────• BRIEF NOTE FROM THE AUTHOR: This homework assignment is useful to minds of all sorts, and can be adapted to work outside the Alchemical classroom. It is purely to urge the student to examine the world around them in detail, and to investigate their own modes of thinking. •─────────────────────•✦•─────────────────────• ✩ SCIENTIA POTENTIA EST ✩ ✩ KNOWLEDGE IS POWER ✩ •─────────────────────•✦•─────────────────────• Signed, MARISTELA “LADY ALCHEMY” FIYEM’LIYU, Lady of Deguis, Celestial Trustee, the Star Lord, •─────────────────────•✦•─────────────────────• •─────────────────────•✦•─────────────────────• ✩ WHAT WRITES HISTORY IS THE POWER OF IDEAS.

THE ୨⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯✧☨✧⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯୧ ୨⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯✧☨✧⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯୧ ESTABLISHED 7 OF JULA AG PIOV, 498 E.S. ୨⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯✧☨✧⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯୧ AS THE CANONIST WORLD falls into turmoil and fear, it becomes clear that now is the time when charity and kindness are most needed. It is my joy and honor to announce the institution of the Holy Hearts Foundation on this day, 7 of Jula ag Piov, 498 E.S. It is the mission of the HHF to distribute the wealth of the nobility of Canondom to those who need it the most; the un-housed common folk, who in this season of snow and hunger are at risk more than ever, and the artists of Canondom, who are few in number, and are in need of encouragement. THE HHF PLEDGES TO distribute all of its funds (as of this release, 500 mina in total) to those groups in need on an application basis. For utmost transparency, every Saint’s month the HHF will release full documentation of its funding, expenditure, and donations. In partnership with the Haeseni Ledi Company, the HHF will host periodical charity auctions, wherein 100% of HLC profits will go directly to the HHF. Alongside this, 50% of mina profits from standard HLC auctions will be directed to the HHF.* These transactions will be recorded in the quad-annual report. *: [OOC:] Charity auctions will be mina-only. Only the mina profits from non-charity auctions will be counted towards the 50% rate. USD or other IRL currency will not be included, for obvious reasons. Join the HHF Discord server here! ୨⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯✧☨✧⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯୧ Encouraged to apply are the following: 1) Those un-housed people in need of financial assistance for tax payments, the purchasing of food, or suitable clothing for the recent unholy blizzards, or otherwise in need of money may apply for funding with the HHF. Also welcome are those families who are willing to foster and care for orphaned children. (Those families, however, will be subject to background checks and other measures to ensure the safety and good care of their fostered children.) 2) Those artists actively producing creative works, who would seek out support in order to create more art, may enquire similarly. Preference will be given to artists creating Canonist works,** but funding will nevertheless be distributed to all. All forms of art are welcome, regardless of medium. 3) Clinics or healers who actively care for their clients, but are unable to secure governmental or private funding in order to pay for training and care. 4) Any others who feel their needs are in accordance with the HHF’s mission but do not fall within these two groups may also enquire. To apply, simply fill out the following form: **: Those being, works depicting Canonist Saints, Canonist history, or Canonist ideals. ୨⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯✧☨✧⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯୧ Those wishing to donate their own funds, collaborate with the HHF on charity events, or otherwise work with the HHF, may enquire at the address below: Holy Hearts Foundation Mission Statement: TO BRING WARMTH, HEALTH, AND SECURITY TO THE DOWNTRODDEN, AND TO UPLIFT THE MINDS AND SOULS OF CANONDOM. ୨⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯✧☨✧⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯୧ signed by, Her Ladyship, GALINA GEORGINA ALYOVNA GODUNOV, Head Designer for the Haeseni Ledi Company, President of the Holy Hearts Foundation

Galina Georgina seethes over not being the eldest daughter of her family, and therefore not being permitted a Hauchmetvas. It was criminal, honestly...
