Event
The Philosopher's Stone
Groups of alchemists have gathered before the court, desiring funding to expand their research. Their proto-scientific language wrapped in mysticism speaks of great bounty, gold from base metals, a cure to any plague, an elixir of life, perhaps even the discovery of the Philosopher's Stone!
Of course, court experts advise against funding this group, as they have no track record of useful alchemical discoveries. Funding the alchemists will probably lead to some kind of discovery, though it is hard to tell if they will actually meet their stated research goals...
