"If that's the case then you'll receive a little bit of support from the city since we always lacked enough alchemists" Philome said
A lot of materials are wasted every time a mage tried to learn how to concoct a certain potion. Because the city itself lacks enough resources, they couldn't be wasteful and just give everyone a chance to become an alchemist
However, it would be different once a mage already knows how to create a potion. If they don't have the capital, the city would help them in exchange for benefits
