Last Alchemist
You swiftly mix a bright alchemical powder with a trace of quicksilver and throw it in an arc. A luminous humanoid form emerges, mimicking your every movement to distract your pursuers into a narrow passage while you retreat unnoticed.You discern faint carvings on the ground, cleverly integrated into the floor’s design to hide a latch. With the correct alchemical reagent, you trigger the hidden mechanism, revealing a dark and mysterious chamber below.The ceiling above appears precariously balanced on worn stone columns. Using an explosive device from your satchel, you destroy the supports to seal off the tunnel, though the resulting instability threatens your immediate area.You retrieve the fire essence vial and pour it into the fractured brazier near the chamber's entrance. A spark from your flint ignites the brazier, unleashing a fiery trap that illuminates the room with erratic, flickering shadows.
