famous symbol of the caduceus of Mercury. However, these representations were made in whitemarble and dark red. I felt suddenly that I shudder of feet up in the crown when I came down laststep, following one by Elinor, and I reached the door which was made of wood and metal. Thewood in the center of the door was carved a symbol made of copper alloy, it was a big circle,3consists of a snake that turned so get to catch in his own mouth tail. the door I noticed a digitalalarm system, which was deactivated by dialing a specific code Elinor. Immediately after he heardthe tinkling particular safety signal is removed, Elinor and I pushed the door handle broke a prettybig room where there were many devices and systems, especially glass. I was invited in andgetting into that place that I find a true sanctuary, I realized that it represented a modernlaboratory alchemy. Along the time had had the opportunity to see some photos and icons thatrepresent moments in the work of medieval alchemists, but what I depict the eyes there, inElinor's villa basement, far outstripping the complexity firavele flasks of alchemists of old drawingsrepresenting laboratories Renaissance. Tube systems were very complicated, sometimes withthe arms across the room over our heads, that is crossed and who later came down to someglass, some higher, some lower, having either a truncated cone shape or form of Ball or even thehourglass. I also saw two cars of modern centrifuges, with several tubes, a strange metal plant,which was connected to what I interpreted as "oven" and a computer. In one room walls wasplaced a large closet with several shelves that were aligned with different coloring glasscontainers, each with its label. I approached one of the shelves at random and read the label on aperfectly sealed glass jar with a lid including: sodium thiosulfate. Everything was perfectly orderlyand clearly arranged in a certain order to be used most effectively. About one third of the lengthof the cabinet was divided and there but otherwise I could notice even more books andmanuscripts, which seemed to be very old. Undoubtedly they were a part of that target specificdocumentation mysterious alchemical processes. I returned to Elinor, who was concerned toregulate something metal device placed near the center of the marble table, on it were retorteleand glassware. I noticed it on the wall behind his two large installations of ventilation, fullyautomated, which set and maintain evidence of that room air to some predetermined values. Onthe ceiling I noticed four fire-fighting equipment and a modern oven before I saw it was placed aleather sofa pretty narrow for two people. I approached this place, because the oven had apeculiar shape, somewhat resembling a house with pointed roof. - Unfortunately we concludedthat, just as powerful and as such modern oven that is electric, it can not replace the value of classical furnace, flame, explained Elinor. Missing some subtle dimension to the process, but stillponder this issue. After a brief pause, he said smiling slightly: - Know that no one entered in thisroom, after I installed everything here. In your case but I feel it is about something else and so Iwanted to show you this secret part of the house. However it is too soon, given the knowledgethat you have now, to go into technical details and I'll explain the alchemical processes that work.Moreover, I myself still intense study these processes, which holds many mysteries. I put thequestion then that I stood on language: 4 - But you got Philosopher Stone ... Elinor laughed veryrelaxed. - My dear, this is a goal that all alchemists and-a desire, is really fundamental aspect of their work. If I already managed to get the Philosopher's Stone, hardly what I would have had togo into the laboratory. However, we arrived at some intermediate results. And saying it wasmoving to a section of the great wardrobe and take the shelf a bottle containing a yellow liquidcopper. Elinor left to fall just two drops in an elegant silver spoon and then invite me to swallowthat liquid. A little nervous and insecure, and we've got yet teaspoon quickly swallowed thecontents. In fact, because of very small, almost like I felt that this substance in my mouth. At first Inoticed nothing unusual, but after about half a minute I felt that I stumble and fall; an acutenausea seems to block my breathing at the neck, which I had the impression that huge swellbecause he could not swallow. I suddenly slipped and I sat on the couch pretty panicked in frontof the oven. Meanwhile, Elinor quietly read a book they had on the shelf. I included a sudden heatof the soles, rapidly ascending to the head. My heart was beating like crazy and sweating lake.When that feeling of intense heat has reached the right neck, I felt a strong energy releasearound me, as a field that included me in the head like thousands of needles. I think then, for amoment, I lost consciousness, but I managed to resist that very intense feelings. Gradually, Inoticed the heat as it dissipates, leaving a very nice moods and very pure. I actually feel a fullclean as if I would be born right then. My soul was flooded with a great joy, and my forces have
