The Recipe
Unraveled by Trisha.
Trisha's suggestion seemed inspired. The manuscripts, laden with cryptic Latin and otherworldly diagrams, perhaps held the secrets they sought.
The Empiric intently studies the manuscripts, fingers tracing over the ancient symbols, until a moment of realization strikes.
There it was! A recipe blending the elixirs with the iridescent liquid from the hourglass.
The Empiric cautiously combines the elixirs and the hourglass liquid into the chalice. The room begins to hum with an otherworldly energy. The chalice pulsated, and from its depths, a voice emerged.
"Long ago, when the walls of this hospital still echoed with hope, a secret was buried deep within its foundations. The vent grid you see was not born from mere necessity, but from a desire to connect our world with what lies beyond.
Master masons and alchemists came together under the hospital's founders' command, crafting this portal between realms. A symbol of unity and knowledge, it bridged the living with the spectral.
But, with such power, came fear. Fear of misuse, fear of what could emerge or where one might descend. Thus, a safeguard was devised—a mechanism so intricate that only the worthy could decipher.
The keyhole you seek is hidden, concealed amongst cryptic tales and arcane knowledge. An orientation device will guide your hand to it. But remember, with every secret unveiled, another layer of mystery awaits.".
