Dialogue[]
Quest DescriptionIt's been heard that Mondstadt's alchemy researcher Timaeus is trying to popularize the art.
- (Talking to Timaeus)
- Timaeus: Greetings! I am Timaeus, researcher of alchemy. Welcome to Mondstadt!
Alchemy?- Timaeus: Alchemy is a craft that has been passed down since ancient times, but it is barely understood in the present.
- Timaeus: Its mechanisms are magical and mysterious, completely unlike the principles that shape our understanding of the physical world.
- Timaeus: If we can get the hang of this, we should be able to create some pretty awesome stuff!
- Paimon: This must be your alchemist's work bench?
- Timaeus: That's right. Why not give it a go yourself?
- I don't know, it sounds complicated...
I'm afraid I'll blow something up!- Timaeus: You'll be fine, the procedure is actually very simple. If you're interested, I can show you the basics?
- Craft
- Paimon: Coooool!
- Timaeus: All we are really doing is following the methods of the ancients as best we can.
- Timaeus: Much as one who uses a wind glider needs not understand how it was built in order to glide.
- Timaeus: The difference with alchemy is that every time I think I finally understand how it's supposed to work, something totally unexpected happens...
- What other uses does alchemy have?
- Timaeus: To be honest with you, I just don't know.
- Can you conjure up a new Paimon using alchemy?
- Paimon: Hey! You shall have no other Paimon before this Paimon!
- Timaeus: Hahaha! Unfortunately my skills are not that advanced.
- Timaeus: There's a lot of other mysterious recipes I have to research first.
- Timaeus: Over the course of your adventures, you should come across some alchemists' notes from ancient civilizations.
- Timaeus: And as your Adventure Rank increases, more recipes will become available to you.
- Thanks for the explanation.
- Timaeus: You're welcome. I look forward to hearing more about your exploits!
- The next time you hear from me I'll be a Paimon-conjuring alchemy wizard.
- Paimon: Why are you so obsessed with other Paimons? Do I no longer satisfy your Paimonial needs?
- Timaeus: Haha... You two are a fascinating pair I must say.
- Timaeus: Well, see you next time. May the wind bring you good fortune on your path ahead.
