Alchemy? Like turning iron into gold? Like making the Philosopher's Stone?
No, alchemy was a part of science in my world, but only way back in our world's history. It isn't used any more, since all that "turning iron into gold" didn't really result in anything- as such, some people died when they ingested poison which they thought was the "Elixer of Life".
So, how does alchemy work in your world, by any chance?
