BLUE VITRIOL

Grounded for the day for subordinate behaviour, a 12-year old Maximos Critelli finds himself wandering around his parent's basement, bored. His dad's old weird hex table looks visually interesting though, so he sits by it. Staring into its old, oddly hypnotic surface, he wonders.

He flicks through the tray table on the left; little arms, weird little mechanisms, all so intricate and strange. The bottom tray contains an unopened box labelled "alchemist learner's kit". His dad probably won't care, so he pokes inside. The instructions look long and boring to read. One sentence catches his eye though: "Master the science of alchemy, and you master the fabric of the universe itself". Huh.

The kit also comes with a vial called "reactive water" and some chunks of rust. Maximos is rather intrigued by the idea of turning this junk into whatever "Blue Vitriol" is. I'll let you, the reader, guess how Maximos spent his next 9 hours.
