Chapter 46

"The Opus, that grande oeuvre essentiel for every Alchemist, is mostly unattainable. It is the chimera we all chase, the flicker of brilliance we fail to achieve. There, at hand's reach, yet so far. Unless we are geniuses, that is. Unless the chased chimera becomes real. It is not impossible to transform, transmute, distil. If we can do it with elements - physical and of the mind - we can do it with our bodies, with life itself. We can transmute what it is into what should be, manipulate the energies to our needs. That is the essence of Chaos, for only through chaos can this be achieved."
