Alchemist world.
Rain under the night sky is illuminated by the moon and 5 stars are as bright as the moon. Rain riding a Xern. Rain finds it look like a horse and a deer mix together. As Rain came into a clearing, He found a City in front of him.
Rain hears his mother speaking and turns to face her," We have arrived at last."
Albus," Glenn, this is the first of you coming to Torian."
Rain," Yeah, I was not allowed to enter Endless Forest before, you have seen in the checkpoint. If the priest did not travel with us, I would have not been allowed to enter." and turns to face the priest," Thank you, Priest Sarius."
Glenn's mother," Yes, thank you priest Sarius."
Priest," It's no problem for me. Tomorrow Rain will submit his potion formula to the potion guild after he passes, he will bring honor to our village."
Albus," We can talk later, Let's enter Torian it's already night and the city gate will be closed any minute." and climbs down his Xern.
Rain and the other two nods and climb down their Xerns. Rain watches the Xerns enter the forest to forage. They will stay nearby, when the times come for Rain and his group to return with a call the Xerns will arrive before them.
They started walking to the city gate. As they near, Rain finds the City walls are made of trees joining together. Trees branches and vines combine together to form the city walls.
Rain was not surprised by the city walls. He read it in books from the priest's library. City walls made from trees' branches and vines are common for the Tree Spirit's architect.
Upon reaching the city gate they are stopped by the guards because of him. After the permit is shown they are allowed to enter.
Entering the City, Rain finds he enter a forest. The city is full of trees which are combined to form a building on the ground and a house on the above branches.
Albus," I am going to my house."
Priest," I am going to the Church."
Glenn's Mother, "I and Glenn to my parent's house."
Albus," Then morning at 10 leaves, we will gather at the lobby of Potion Guild."
Rain nods. And watch Albus start to walk straight and Priest to the left. Rain follows his mother to the staircase to the upper floor of the forest city,
As Rain follows his mother on the upper floor of the forest all the buildings are houses of Tree-Spirit and on the ground, the buildings are shops and official buildings.
After a few minutes, they stood in front of a tree house.
Mother," Mother and Father will be thrilled to see you."
Rain from Glenn's memory found that his tree-spirit grandparents did not discriminate against him and visited him every 2-4 years gap. He did not meet his grandparents from his father's side.
Rain smiles and nods and watches as his mother opens the door. This alerted his Grandfather who Rain found standing at the doorway of the living room after he and his mother entered the tree house.
Rain hears his grandmother shouting from the house, he does not from where," Honey, who came?"
Grandfather," You will not be able to guess who came." he stepped forward and enveloped Rain in a hug which Raun hugged.
Grandmother," Soran, You came."
Mother," Yes, mother."
As his grandfather pulls back and then his grandmother notices him. " Glenn, How are you here?"
His mother answers for him as he sweeps into another hug," Priest Sarius came with us. Because of him Rain allowed to enter the endless forest."
After his grandmother released him and walked inside. Rain sat beside his mother with his Grandfather and Grandmother sitting opposite them.
Rain looks amazed at his Grandfather and Grandmother who are over 500 years old but look like they are at late 20 years old. Like his mother, his Grandfather and Grandmother are both change professionals.
Rain hears his mother start the conversation," Glenn create a new potion formula. "
Grandfather and Grandmother turn to Rain with a happy face and praise Rain.
Then his mother starts talking about the slavers, Glenn captured by the slavers, She breaking through Chimera Realm, rescuing Glenn, and finding Glenn's becoming an alchemist.
The Grandparents remain silent throughout his mother's talking.
Grandfather angrily spoke, " I told you to break through before and not be afraid. If you had listened to me, you would have been able to rescue Glenn before where Glenn was not required to fight the slavers and become an alchemist."
Grandmother pats his grandfather on his thigh to calm him down," It's not Soran fault but the fault of the slavers."
Grandfather," But." taking a deep breath looks at his grandson," When are you leaving for City of Freedom."
Grandmother, "What are you talking about?"
Grandfather," Even if Glenn, becomes a potionist and is allowed to stay in the endless forest region if he wants to advance the realm, he will have to leave for City of Freedom."
Rain found everybody waiting for his answer," After we return to the village, I will stay at the village for one day and then leave the next day."
Mother," You did not mention it to me."
Rain," Mother, I was going to mention it to you after I become a potionist."
Grandmother," Then how many days are you staying here."
Mother, "For two days."
Grandmother stood up," Then for two days, I will make Glenn's favorite foods". And start to walk toward the kitchen," Let's start with today's dinner."
Mother," I will help her." and follow grandmother.
Rain watches them leave and turn to face his grandfather.
Grandfather," Glenn, Did you decide which topic to research and collect faith."
Rain then starts talking about his plan and the potion he created. His grandfather listened with rapt attention.
After he finished, His grandfather spoke, "Glenn then do not research only Human disease and the four main races. Try to research diseases of the minor races and animals. Many alchemists do not pay attention to them."
Rain nods and they discuss his plan. After some time they had dinner and later Rain went to a room to sleep for the night.
Rain sitting on the bed thought about Glenn's grandfather's advice and many of them are sound.
" Let's practice for a few hours and then go to sleep." Rain thinks,
And then small balls start flying around Rain. Rain found this method help to control the power of the soul and make the soul's power more tenuous.
In this world, He cannot increase realm by practicing, and power of belief is required. After I pass the Potion test from the guild tomorrow then I will produce the potion or contract a potion manufacturer to manufacture the potion and sell it to half-tree spirits on the outskirts of an endless forest.
" I will leave in four days then I will have to hand over the potion to a potion manufacturer."
"I will lose money but money is not important for me. The power of Belief is my requirement."
Rain found as he lost his concentration and his mind wandered some of the balls deviated from their route and crashed with other balls and some flew and embedded in the wall,
Rain stops his thought and controls the balls again.
Rain practiced for two hours and then went to sleep.
The next morning 10 minutes the time struck 10 leaves. Leaves mean an hour for Tree Spirit. He and his mother stood from a large tree with a door in its bark.
Mother," we arrive. Let's enter."
Rain nods and follows his mother and when they near the door. The door opens automatically and they enter it.
Rain finds the lobby is sparse and a female sits behind a counter at the back and they observe the other people inside.
Rain notices Priest Sarius sitting by himself.
Rain tugs his mother's hand and points in the priest's direction," Priest Sarius."
He follows his mother and seat beside his mother who sits beside the priest.
Mother, "Albus did not arrive."
Priest, "No, there is still time before 10 leaves."
They talk and 2, minutes before 10 leaves Albus enters the lobby.
Before Rain can call him, Albus spots them and signals them to come to him.
Rain faced his mother and alerted her of Albus' signal and stood up and walked toward Albus.
Albus," Follow me." Rain follows Albus to a stair going up and following him.
Rain finds another room but much larger. He calculates and finds the space is much larger than the width of the tree. Rain watches Albus walk toward another counter in the room and Rain follows him.
Rain hears Albus communicating with the female behind the counter. Albus," He wants to submit a new potion." pointing to Rain.
Female face turns to Rain with a smile," Sir, Are you part of the guild and your name."
Rain replies, "No, Glenn GoldenOak."
Female smiles, "Sir, Can I see your Potion recipe, to check if it's new?."
Rain took out the recipe from his pocket "Of course, Here it is" and handed it to her.
Rain watches as the female lights with green light and hovers above the potion.
Female this time with a warm smile toward Rain, "Looks like it is a new portion recipe. And what do you want to do with the potion recipe."
Before Rain can reply, Albus answers," He wants to participate in the Potionist trail."
The female nods," Then you all can sit in the waiting area and someone will come to take you." pointing to the waiting area.
Rain turns around to find his mother and priest behind him. With them and Albus, He walks to the waiting area and waits.
