Philosophers' Stone

Many explorers and magicians have travelled across the continents, searching for the Philosophers’ Stone. Legend has it that the stone originated from the core of the universe, the core which cannot be seen even with today’s eyes. It is said in hidden whispers, that it has all the secrets of the past, present, and future embedded in it. Pyramids of Egypt, Stonehenge, Oak of Mamre, and ancient maps, have all been searched painstakingly, only to be left with an echo of time’s laughter, scorning the stone’s seekers fruitless mission. “It is not a real stone,” an alchemist once told me. “It is a fabled stone that exists only in the imaginary world. “Our world today was once an imaginary world,” another alchemist told me. “what if the Philosophers’ Stone exists?”
