Dellam Naris one of the most talented mages and alchemists in generations has just discovered a new way to combine these fields. Leading him on a path toward unimaginable power. The only real obstacles are his colleagues and superiors within West Crescent’s mage's association. Having viewed his work as pointless at best and in some cases blasphemous at worst. They shunned him for diverging so drastically from the traditional teachings of magic and alchemy which have been systematized for millennia. This all changes however when news of his exploits begin to spread and the academic authority of the association is called into question. He has been healing diseases thought to be incurable by anything but divine intervention, altering wildelife and plants and some say he has even been dabbling in soul magic. A field of study outlawed nearly 400 years ago when it was brought to this world by a demi lich who broke into the world of Ahura and created a necropolis on the central continent. It took the combined might of 12 nations and the emergency summoning of entities from other worlds to stop the damn thing. If these claims hold true then he may have stumbled on to secrets the association cannot afford to lose control of and the association may be forced to enact a punishment far worse than death.
