Unsolved mystery within! A most tragic of fates is believed to have befallen our local alchemist. And of course, no one has fessed up. Due to the very public nature of this disappearance our investigators are stretched thin. Following very public lines of questioning and keeping the city publications up to date. One line of questioning however is being pushed out of the public eye. The last group of people known to have had contact with the alchemist- members of the Guild Hall itself. Take up the investigation, question the suspects- find clues and solve puzzles to ultimately discover the truth behind- The Secrets of the Fallen Alchemist.
