Basics of Alchemy

The Basics of Alchemy is a special tome that teaches just a few basic recipes - only the first part of the book remains intact.

"... and laymen often confuse Mycology and Alchemy because they both use mushrooms. But here's the rule of thumb: if it's JUST mushrooms, it's Mycology. If it involves combining lots of things into a potion, it's Alchemy. As always there are exceptions, but the rule is at least 51% accurate...

This book focuses on Alchemy. Mycology is a lesser art, unbecoming of a true mage."
