Flamel was remiscing about the day where he Lost every thing but got something new, when his city was just one of many attacked, in a war he didn't even care about.

He was broken from his wanderings through the past by a bump on the road that met the wagon he was traveling in, Flamel was currently a temporary member of a traveling merchant's entorage.

Acting as a medic on the side for the the traveling group, even if temporary he was in there for some not irrelevante amount of time but what he truly sought, was to search for some rare herbs for him to make some of the potions more difficult taught to him by his aunt.

Things went as normal, that is until another member of the entorage found a book buried under sand, in a language that name thought was merely forgotten by time, by curiosity name pitched in for buying it and with a bit of his coin he bought the book off of the member.

Flamel was looking to translate what was in the book, maybe he could even learn something new?
