Chapter 4: The Tome of Trismegistos

My latest stop was in the Praedico , a large town dedicated to interpreting and following the Book of The Tome of Trismegistos. It is a tome that came from an old alchemist years ago. According to the interpretation of the tome, the world will end on the next day, right in the middle of my stay.

This old Alchemist...its him again...who in the alchemist world is he...I must be on the right track for the piece...I have to be...

All of the town's inhabitants are sure that the prophecy on this world will happen tomorrow. They were so certain that they offered me goods and services for free...talk about right timing. After doing some shopping, I noticed a crowd gathering around a strange old man. It was the priest of town's Southern Temple. He was explaining how the end of the world would come to be as he deciphered the text. Surely the people are hanging onto their every word, but for me, the worst part of the end of the world is the great prices.

Back at the hotel, I talked to the girl in charge where to find the tome of Trismegistos. He told me that the priest before is holding onto it. So I headed to the Southern temple...along the way...the people are all inside their house...I hear chants...prayers...others were crying. Finally, I reached the temple...as I started to come close to the door...I heard someone saying:

"I was waiting for you..."

It was the priest...he was....waiting for me?...what does that mean?

"The old alchemist...it told me that another alchemist would come...and when that time comes tell the people that the end of the world will come eventually so that he could have all the things he need...after that he will come to you...give the stone along this tome...and let him be the one to hold the burden of the world...to decide for what's best for mankind."

Burden? what?....

"Who is this old alchemist?! Tell me? Do you know anything about the Philia Sophia?! Tell me?!"

"I have nothing more to say...the tome...shall it answer it all? It all depends on you...take this tome...this piece....and leave..."

After acquiring both the piece and the tome the priest slowly vanished...hearing his last words:

"I am only one of the character given life by the stone...harnessing the power of the different elements that bind this world...Trismegistos...find him..."

Questions rattled to my mind...

This priest...
is he not a person that really lived?!
Elements...
that made the world...
Trismegistos...
Who is he?!
Whoever he is...
I have to find him...
I will find him!
Soon after, I left the town...after the free shopping I've done...I really have to go!!!

"The night fell at7:24 PM"
