Shun Yin was sitting by himself outside the cemetery, brooding. Glen approached him, and when his friend turned toward him, he tossed a bottle at him. Shun Yin caught it by reflex, and then stared at the clear water swirling inside the plastic bottle.

Synthetic materials could be manufactured through magic or through a fusion of alchemy and chemistry. Though alchemy was simply magic chemistry.
"Yeah." Shun Yin nodded distractedly as he uncapped the bottle and took a gulp. He lowered his gaze, unable to meet Glen's eyes.
"What about…Angie? Is she all right?"
