Features: Alchemy originated from ancient civilizations, and the transmutation of metals was its symbolic act. However, the alchemists' "golden dream" was not limited to simply turning lead into gold; it involved a deeper philosophy. This philosophy encompassed various forms of "experimental metaphysics" and gave rise to a magical language capable of communicating with spirits and a collection of peculiar illustrations.
