    Assailant -- Year 226

    QOTY

    "But the dream, the echo, slips from him as quickly as he had found it and as consciousness comes to him (a slap and not the gentle waves of oceanic tides), it dissolves entirely. His muscles relax as the cold claims him again, as the numbness sets in, and when his grey eyes open, there’s nothing but the faint after burn of a dream often trod and never remembered." --Brigade, written by Laura

    [open quest]  Summer School 2019 - Art in Chemistry
    #7
    The first thing she needed was an idea. She thinks of Kensa and all her beauty and wonders, wouldn't everyone wish to look like her leader? Elaina would create something to enhance another’s beauty, to make someone feel more confident. The golden sunflower girl looks around for some Rosehip. She knew its properties fought against aging and gave the skin a youthful glow. Easily, she finds it amongst the many ingredients. Amber eyes spot crystals similar to the ones that were in the cavern in Paraiso. Elaina knew crystals held magical properties, including healing and brightening. As she is gathering these pieces together, that is when amber eyes are drawn to something else, and she isn't quite sure why. It looks like water, but there has to be something more to it, right? She stares for a moment as she takes a step towards it, it sits in the stone basin.

    She knows it is magical, can almost feel it, but, when she tastes, it’s bitter, as if all the magic had been drained from it. Elaina sighs heavily. Oh well, at least it would provide the liquid she needed to mix her other ingredients. The moment she places the rosehip and crushed crystals into the basin, they disintegrate leaving behind just murky water. Strange. Elaina eyes the water carefully, but as she does so, she has failed to realize that magic has been steadily heating the basin and steam begins to rise from it. It takes a moment, but those firestorm eyes rest up the silver vapor rising upwards like a mist of sorts. When she reaches out towards it, that is when she becomes pleasantly surprised.

    Elaina has her creation. It would seem that just a bit of heat was enough to restore the water’s magical properties.

    <B>“Hello, everyone,”</B> she begins when it is her turn to present.<B> “I have created something today that anyone can use if they think they are not looking as radiant as they feel. It will help with some of those lines of age, and it will give you a radiant glow that will have you feeling your best,”</B> she adds. <B>“This is called Radiance Dust,”</B> she says before directing her gaze downwards to the stone basin where she had combined her ingredients. <B>“Well, not when its in liquid form,”</B> she says.<B> “You see, like how water may exists in multiple forms, even though it is derived of the same elements, so does Radiance Dust.”</B> She says, her confidence growing. <B>“In this case, we have a liquid state and a gaseous state. But to use this object for its intended purpose, it must be in its gas state.” </B>She adds with a nod of her golden head. <B>“As a liquid, this material is no more dense than the water we drink, but with a bitter taste. As a gas, it is denser than air, and also, unlike air, you can see it.”</B> She adds excitedly.

    Now it was time for the fun part. <B>“In its liquid state, it looks just like muddy drinking water, but relatively more useless. But, let it heat up with its low boiling point (it only needs some sunlight or a bit of heat) and it becomes a beautiful silver vapor.”</B> She takes a breath and turns to the basin that has been slowly heating in the sun. As the vapor rises, Elaina places her face close to it. The moment it reaches her skin, it causes a reaction and makes her skin illuminate and sparkle, giving her a radiant glow. <B>“When it touches your skin, a harmless chemical reaction occurs and it will actually make your skin glitter and sparkle. It will fill in some of those worry lines I know we all have and return you to a youthful glow.”</B> She says. <B>“It’s freezing point is extremely low, so now worries about your supply freezing up!”</B> She says, adding a bit of humor. <B>“Just keep it out of direct sunlight and away from heat until you are ready to use,”</B> she says with a smile before giving a slight nod of her head, concluding her presentation.
