Chapter 804: Writing Rules

Walker looked up at the sky to see that they still had a few hours left before they would call it a day with training. The rhythmic tapping and banging from the forge was enough to make them sure that it would continue through the entire night. The water spirits had come to investigate the ice that Walker had created with Midnight and they were slowly cleaning up any of the water elemental mana around.

"Since there is no more training for the flame breath, why don't you try and use your movement skills to give me a run got my money?" Su had wanted to test herself against Walker for a while. He was faster than her when it came to attacking and if he was able to push her a little then she could improve her blocking. 

The practice would be welcome and soon Walker and Su were dashing about with the surprise attacks from Midnight here and there. It was a valuable experience since they had not often been attacked by surprise. This would be their remaining training until dinner later and they would pick up elemental breath attacks the next day after Midnight had rested. 

Meanwhile, Remey and the old master alchemist had been hunched over the same table for hours. "We came all the way to the alchemist building and it's been dead in here all day, what's the problem?" Remey had finally built up enough curiosity to ask where the normal apprentices and alchemists were. 

"I told them about the guild forming. If they wanted to join they were sent to the building being built in Genesis city. Those who did not were stripped of their relation to this building and sent away. Almost all of them supported it and the apprentices were more than eager to hear some of the plans. Those who did not want to join feared the loss of income. It's sad to see them full of greed." 

The decision had been made while the party was away but Remey was not surprised to hear that the old man had been hard at work instead of just researching potions. "Then we will have plenty that can learn and become the first teachers for the basics. The masters and high alchemists that join up can teach more advanced classes. Personally, I would want to teach an herb gathering class." 

The old master alchemist heard what Remey wanted and knew exactly why "You want to be able to take some of the apprentices out to gather herbs and they can be guarded by your party. You would be the only one that could do that without having to place quests for the adventurers or guards. But it could be a good way to build relations. The alchemy guild would issue a great deal of quests." This was a wise move because it could also lead to the guild getting rare herbs faster. 

"This building will be modified as well. I already have the contracts filled and the rebuilding will start. By the end of the winter, this will be the secondary branch of the guild. That will leave the demi-human kingdom and the forest elf city. Not that we need to worry about the elves since I am sure they are already building a new lab for exactly that reason"m The old master alchemist laughed. After he had seen the herbs and potions formulas that Remey had brought back he developed a very strong appreciation for elves. 

"Knowing them they could have just grown another tree to make their alchemy building. But the founding branch will need to be the main testing branch. I wrote a suggested rule in here that all the main testing for any tier advancement or such would go on at the main branch and their instructors would make yearly visits to the other branches." Remey was using the adventurers guild as a bench mark for tiers. Their badges would be the same as the adventurer plaques.

"The members uniform you had made for you costume at the festival, that will also be a symbol. But you said something about runes being stitched in to them?" The old master alchemist was not ignorant of runes. However, he had never met someone or owned runed fabrics. The idea sounded very beneficial depending on what potion was being made and what elemental rune was being worn. 

"The fabrics will be part of a set. I want the basic uniform without runes to be what we give those who join. That will help show that they are an alchemist other than the badge. The badge will be identifications and work like the adventurers guild to be part of a gold account. The rune fabric robes will be rewards for those that reach higher tiers in alchemy or those that contribute in certain ways. If we need a rare herb for some reason we can offer the robe for the herbs." Remey's plan was coining together and was all spelled out in close to a hundred pages of rules and regulations to go over with the founding members of the guild at the summit.

"Speaking of herbs, I want the alchemy guild to have their own greenhouses that employ herbalists. This could be the core of our healing and mana potions. Along with fever reducing herbs and other similar herbs." The goal here was to make sure the main source of experimentation and learning for the guild members was always available.

"I agree. That will be the best. Low tier health and mana potions are the keys to a strong foundation." The old master alchemist looked pleased that Remey had remembered to do something so wise. "Now, about the opening. I want to fund a recruitment event. I have too much gold in savings and as a founding member with years of experience, I think it would be wise to start tests of all possible applicants. This would be the first before we switch to a monthly basis." The old master alchemist had a strange smile that told Remey that he was going to weed through and only take the best as the founding classes and members of the guild.
