Alchemy  

Ren looked over at the mirror after he washed his face. The ghost of silence in his unit was haunting him, but he wouldn't let it destroy his newfound resolve.

He was still not used to being at home and found it so . . . empty. Maybe logging into the game was the distraction he needed.

For the meantime, he wouldn't think about what Angelica and Joker told him.

First things first. He was out of the game for a month, and this month-long absence from COVENANT had major implications to him.

First, most of the players were already in their second evolve class. Most [Squire] had now turned to [Knights]. [Fencers] to [Duelists]. [Thieves] to [Rogues], [Hunters] to [Ravagers], [Snipers] to [Fusiliers], [Animists] to [Tamers], [Monks] to [White Monks], [Brutes] to [Barbarian], [Dark Mage] to [Warlock], [White Mage] to [Ascetic], [Red Mage] to [Flame Master], [Green Mage] to [Druid] and soon.

That meant a new set of skills, spells, and weapons were now accessible to all.
