Soraya:The carriage rolled to a gentle halt before in front of The Academy building.Prince Eldan stepped out first, stretching slightly before offering a polite hand to help the two girls alight. Rhea took it timidly, almost tripping over her dress, while Soraya brushed her skirt and looked around, taking in every detail of the Academy with sharp, calculating eyes.A man dressed in the Academy’s official uniform,a deep blue coat lined with silver threads,approached them quickly. He bowed low. “Good evening, Prince Eldan,” he greeted with respect, then glanced curiously at the two unfamiliar girls. “And... Lady...?”“Lady Soraya of House Elmere,” Soraya said smoothly before he could finish, raising her chin slightly.“Lady Rhea of House Elmere,” Rhea added right after, trying her best to sound noble despite her nerves.The attendant blinked, visibly unsure, but said nothing. They had arrived with the Prince,who was he to question? “Very well,” he said, clearing his throat. “If you’ll

How the Alchemy of Souls Ritual Works1-Preparation of the Soul VesselsBoth the caster (the one performing the spell) and the recipient (the person to switch souls with) must be physically present.The body must be in a calm, meditative state to receive another soul.The ritual cannot work if one body is weak or dying, unless assisted by powerful alchemy.2-The Soul Stone / Ice StoneA Soul Stone is used , it contains energy capable of containing and transferring souls.It acts as the conduit between the two bodies.The caster channels Chi into the stone, causing it to glow and release an ethereal blue light.3-The Binding CircleA sacred alchemy circle is drawn on the ground using soul dust or special ink infused with Chi.The two participants sit or lie within it, facing each other.The caster recites an ancient incantation invoking the forces of Life and Death to exchange the souls.4-The Chant / IncantationThe spell itself calls upon the “law of balance”,one life for another, on

Mage Lysander:The torches along the stone walls of the tomb flickered, as Prince Aziel stood in silent. His hands were clasped behind his back,Beside him,was Lysander.“You brought me here, Your Majesty,” Lysander said."Yes,i brought you here,to show you where it all took place"Aziel spoke."Discuss your findings Lysander"He added.“The Alchemy of Soul,” Lysander began, “requires more than incantations. It demands balance between vessel and spirit. And the medium” He paused, lowering his voice. “the Ice Stone was a relic from the northern sanctums.”Lysander continued" Vanya’s spell book,is not just parchment and ink. It’s an ancient relic itself. A record of methods, patterns, and spells… everything from elemental transmutation to the forbidden rites of soulcraft.”He turned to face the prince fully now, “Whoever possesses that book holds the foundation of Alchemy itself.”“Among them,” Lysander said softly, “is the one we now call the Alchemy of Soul,Though the true Ice Stone rema

Prince Aziel:“State your reports.” The voice of Prince Aziel was heard through the vast council chamber.The nine council members rose from their seats, arranged in a broad semicircle beneath the raised throne.Their silk robes rustled as they bowed.“Let us begin,” Aziel said.The Chief State Councillor Lord Malrek stepped forward first. “Your Highness, an attack occurred in the Lower District last night.People claimed that the creature was… not human.”Murmurs rippled through the semicircle."But luckily Mage Zhalik was there to handle the situation"he added.“Call Mage Zhalik,” Aziel ordered.Footsteps echoed as Mage Zhalik approached the center of the chamber.

He walked straight to the chalkboard, picked up a piece of chalk, and wrote in bold strokes.COMBAT ALCHEMY.Then he turned to face the class.“As you all already know, my name is Mage Lysander,” he said,“And I will be taking you all on Combat Alchemy.”He began pacing slowly along the front of the room.“It’s all about learning how to fight with Alchemy.”The students straightened in their seats.“Today,” Lysander continued, “I will be teaching you how to execute a perfect Kairoshot.”He paused, letting the name settle over them.“From the Greek word kairos,” he explained, “meaning ‘opportune moment’or ‘key moment.’”He lifted his hand, and a faint shimmer of alchemical energy flickered across his palm as he began demonstrating.“To perform a proper Kairoshot,” he said, “you must follow four foundational steps.”The entire class watched him,fascinated, alert, not a breath wasted.“One, Visualization.
