hmm seems the blog can not hold my Alchemy pages of our great Endeavor: So
After the Dawn:
the Alchemy pages of the great event, as told by Jayaha's scribe:
Sunlight shifts as another day moves into eve…
The young scribe chews another betel nut…. Closing his eyes and allowing the juice to flow down his dry throat ….
Soft sighs, "I will be so glad when this has ended, my mistress has been consumed and saddened by this enterprise and I only wish her the happiness she deserves….."
No one understood the magnitude and complexity these events would unfold as each intricate part was revealed.
Alchemy, yes she was the first, so young, she achieved 250/250 herbalism/alchemy at the tender age of 22 or less my mind mmmm chews another betel nut…. Thus her destiny was cast to lead the others in this path of After the Dawns great Endeavour.
Soft, kind heart so easily bruised, she had to herd the guild 'cats' known as alchemists into harvesting the mats and learning the skills to achieve the Glory we all sought!
If it were not for the Guild 'all for all' mind-set her small crew would still be harvesting the precious herbs required to make the required components. She deeply thanks all her guildies, this I know.
The Alganon gods in their infinite wisdom deemed that any herbalist of sufficient mettle could harvest the needed components if they followed the path and persevered. Faced at the onset, knowing that certain things were not even obtainable, her small deep hearted crew moved on and gathered herb after herb, small bundles building up into unfathomable quantities. Blessed they were and the Alganon gods smiled, increasing the bundle sizes to manageable portions and adding the missing materials into the world that was ever evolving.
The scribe shuddered at the memory of seeing his ladies' stricken eyes after she had been called before the council of those that were 'tracking progresses'. His heart went out to his mistress, he so wanted to wipe away her tears after such a meeting. Her heart so gentle, he knew her pains in trying to explain the personalities of those ones who chose herb/alch as professions. Majikal, mystical personalities, not easily pinned down and made to follow schedules…. Hence I am here to follow, calculate and track the progress of what is done, and what yet needs to be done. …… chews another betel nut….
The Guild, our most awesome Guild, rallied forward and enlisted help from all quarters, herbalists (alts) who never imagined they would be such… The massive quantities of mats were mind boggling…
Everyone rallied and harvested 24 x 7 no one felt it was impossible, and soon learned it was very possible and could even be fun. Our Guild is incredible. " 45 of 72 here…. calls out to those collecting…. I have 50 of 72 here, I swear Lunar Mandrake wants to be collected in the dark of night…"
Lunar Mandrake was the last item needed in mass quantities, a 225 herb, most revered and plentiful in a location populated by fierce Pirates, cougars and kits along with chompers and ugly tree abominations…
The wise knew the path and eagerly shared with the initiates… soon many were on the trail of Lunar Mandrake. One such apprentice followed my lady to learn the route; over and over she patiently showed the way. It was late and she had miles to go before she slept, but she had to ensure that the task would continue upon her departure. The plebe was eager to learn and very enthusiastic. At last she was able to ask that they lead and she follow to ensure the knowledge had been successfully transferred. It only took one round and, the initiate was well in control and able to continue on. This key guildie was able to continue on well into the night as my lady left and moved on to other responsibilities. I know my lady's heart went out to this person in deepest gratitude, the joys and sorrows I share as her closest confidant.
As all the harvesting went on, there were also the tasks of making the components of the components of the components and the studies to allow this all to happen in the long of the Grande plan and scheme of things.
The Guild main Alchemists had divided to conquer. Studies were divvied up and all were deep into the books and parchments gleaning all that could be from the tomes available. Sighs… looks back at the records….
