## Objective

The Alchemist

Surprisingly, within the scroll was written prophesy of future events. Even the death of my wife from sickness...

Guilt, rage, emptiness, and an unknown emotion raged within. I absolved from food or drink, wallowing in my despair

yet only for a brief moment.
For the sake of my two daughters, and to be able to face my wife and uncle in the afterlife, I needed to stand back on my two feet once more.

With a strong resolve planted in my heart once more, and to prepare for the events prophesied by the scroll that had yet to pass, from that day forth, I devoted my all to alchemy.

After having endured my brief episode in misery, my family looked upon my refocused self with some relief, and yet, a different kind of anxiety.

But I didn't have the luxury to mind their concerns. To find the means to stop the approaching calamity, I lost myself in my alchemy. And, just as it was foretold, a ban on alchemy was issued over Calpheon.
