Event
The Pursuit of Gold

Target Ruler has been absorbed by the possibility of creating gold ever since his/her early childhood, and with the government coffers open to him/her this has grown into an obsession. Every book and supposed expert has been gathered to Capital to be examined or questioned. Target Ruler himself/herself has spent many days in his/her laboratory but has so far not come close to creating this expensive metal.
Some would call this pursuit a fool's errand, but it has certainly improved our knowledge about Chemistry.
