[Magatia's Secret] Test from the Head of Zenumist Society

Do you really think Magatia is a town full of scholars with pure intent on research? That's nonsense. There's no other town that bickers over territory for their own good like them. The days of scholars purely searching for the truth is long gone... well, that's perfect for brokers, though.

Is there a big conflict?

Yes, which makes life harder for travelers like you. People are in so much conflict between one another that it's hard to join either of the two forces. There's so much mistrust in the air that the outsiders will have a hard time entering their tight circle. If you ever went there, you know what I am talking about.

A little bit...

If you want to know more about the situation in Magatia, you will have to join either Zenumist or Alcadno, and be part of the group. Even that is going to be difficult, but... your humble broker knows a way or two to get in. What do you think? Are you interested in joining Zenumist?

I am interested in becoming a part of Zenumist.

Hahaha... I knew you would say that. An adventurer like you would never reject an opportunity like this. I have to warn you, though, that joining the Zenumist sect is not easy. They believe that they are the true scholars, and they treat themselves as an exclusive bunch. In order to join Zenumist, you'll need to present to them your work as an alchemist.

Does that mean it's impossible?

Oh no, no. I, 브로커 한, do favors for any customer. I can make you a member of the Zenumists, in fact, if you can pay the fee. I'm the only person that can help you get into 마가티아, in fact.

Good decision. Talk to me when you're ready to do the trade. I'd say, oh, 1,000 Mesos is enough. That's not too bad, right? I can make you an official Zenumist with just that.

You declined? You must be very confident in conducting alchemy in front of those scholars.

I guess you really want to join the Zenumists. I don't see the appeal, but whatever. So, do you have my money?

Wonderful! Just give me a moment. I'll cook up some research and peer reviews to pass the Zenumists's test.

What? Where's my 1,000 Mesos? Get yourself in order if you want to deal!
