Transmuted my front door this morning as soon as I could stand up again from eating so much yesterday.

You transmuted your front door to that?

It is rather impressive.

[fullferricelric]

Yes I did and yes it is!

[glastonprincess]

What an incredible power. Is it common in your world?

[fullferricelric]

Huh? Alchemy is a science, not magic or anything like that. And I guess it's not uncommon but there are degrees of ability involved.

Your world doesn't have it?

[glastonprincess]

No. We have our sciences, but they do not encompass alchemy.

[fullferricelric]

What kinds of sciences does your world have?

[glastonprincess]

The usual natural sciences, of course. Biology, geology, physics.

[fullferricelric]

We have those too. Physics, geology and chemistry are definite subgroups of alchemy, and biology becomes relevant with certain types of alchemy...

[glastonprincess]

Subgroups, are they? How very interesting. What else can you create with such a science?

[fullferricelric]

Transmuting gold, transmuting humans and opposing the military are the three forbidden laws of our society's alchemy. But the science of alchemy is meant to explain the fundamentals of everything in the world so as to derive truth from it... so it's not to say that all of the above aren't possible. Just not a good idea.

[glastonprincess]

Transmuting humans?

[fullferricelric]

...That one's forbidden for a good reason.

[glastonprincess]

What does it entail?
