It is not SHORT. All ideas come to me, I always polish and add details and layer up and end up being a looooooong story.
Currently it is the starting story of a series that is based on Alchemist.
Like the immortal elixir, turn rock into gold, each skill had its own story arc. x.x
and a spoiler, I made the woman involve in the revival of the wife. XD She is one of the Alchemist that do research on old alchemy. muaha.
