Petra is called to come and visit her Master. As every apprentice that seeks their own path, she'll have to recite her Alchemist's Oath in front of her teacher. Before that happens, though, e wants to check if she's truly ready for it.
This is part one of the Alchemist's Oath trilogy, made for Neo-Twiny 2025. The trilogy is a prequel to my future Ectocomp project, Sheoltorn.

This little piece speaks to me, with the master's call for understanding material (both "course material" and "material matters") and truth (knowing one's essence, who one is at their core). Even having ascended, the master does still seem quite human in how they speak with Petra. Petra's desire to be free of "love" due to the pressure of those who don't understand is also very relatable (though maybe I approach that idea on a different/broader level than what is being used here). Thank you for sharing.
Wow, super interesting! I look forward to the next part!
Very cool opening! Really grabs me right away. I can't wait for the next part!
