Ah, my assistant is here. Once again I have recalibrated the Chemicotron for the most accurate results. It's just through that door there, now see to your duties.
Right away, but first…
What is it this time? And you'd better have a doctor's note.
Talk
Ah, you want to know how the research is going? Every mixture using the Chemicotron brings me closer to finishing my world changing project, The Alchemicia Pharmacopeia. Soon all of Lore will know that magic is irrelevant and that all things and their properties can be scientifically explained to produce a defined result!
Alchemicia Pharmacopeia?
It is the product of my scientific method. A documentation of the effects of commonly used alchemical reagents. These fools accept the notion that reagents are naturally magical and this is why they can create potions, tonics or elixirs. I am developing proof that it is the reagent's core properties that define what we get from using it!
Scientific Method?
Well you see, the way we find facts and prove they are true is through the use of The Scientific Method. In each experiment we only change one thing from the first experiment and then we document the differences. Analysing the data we can come understand the properties of each reagent. It should be called Lim's Method… The Lim-ethod… Lim Process.
More
Think about the progress we could make without the notion of "Magic" holding us back! If you were to aid me in my research by returning to me with any "Scientific" data you acquire while using the Chemicotron I will award you with Academic Merits.
Chemicotron?
The Chemicotron is a sophisticated machine developed by yours truly. It is capable of combining almost any two reagents into a powerful solution. The only reason the results are random is because ALINA insists we power it with "magic" runestones. After I collect enough data, the runestones will be unnecessary!
More
The trick to using the Chemicotron is to heat your mixtures in bursts, allowing a longer amount of time for the runestone to cool after being heated. If that frail runestone is getting close to breaking, use an iceblast. That's the best tip I can give you until I develop a better heating and cooling system for the Chemicotron.

How can you save New Years when you still have business to attend to in Frostvale? That is MADNESS! Head on over to the town of Frostvale and save the moglins before helping me. Quantum physics states that I can't do this all by myself!
Mad Scientist
Party? What? No, moglins are too small and weak to party. Wouldn’t it be cool to genetically modify them to be bigger, stronger, faster… BETTER? Yeah, I thought so, too! Once I finish that, THEN I’ll join you at the party.
What Happened?
Cysero thought I was making dinner, and added some unauthorized ingredients to the pot of genetic brew. There was… a bad reaction from the chemical sweeteners in the Pockey he tossed in. Now, hundreds of mutated “Pockey-Mogs” are rampaging across Lore!
How Can I Help?
Well, obviously these “Pockey-Mogs” have to be contained. If word gets out… well, frankly it makes us look a little irresponsible. We don’t want to be the guys responsible for the mog-pocalypse, you know? So we just need to clean up the mess - no problem, right?

Oh, that's not good at ALL.

Well, it looks like your problem was caused by a poison woven into the fabric
WHAT?
Yep! It reacts to moisture. So as soon as those dancers start working up a sweat… BOOM. They fall over dead.
And somehow end up turning into zombies.
Righto! That part I'm not so clear on. Doesn't look like the poison was reanimating them.
I guess that's another mystery to solve, then.

LIM IS BACK! That me… I'm Lim. I have been put in charge of the New Year festivities again. I thought that I did such a great job last New Year that I would do it again this year! All the high-powered explosive fireworks you see here are my creations. But apparently someone — or something — is out to ruin me. RUIN ME, I say!
Talk
Interested in helping me out? Thought you would be. You see, unlike the so-called "magical" fireworks that Mages create, I make REAL ones by using SCIENCE! That's right—really big, really powerful, and really REAL fireworks that are FAR better than any magic-made ones.
But…uh….in order to set these babies off at proper time intervals, I had to wire all the fireworks together using a complex series of circuits running underground. It's all elementary science, really. However, it appears as though there is a short somewhere in the circuit…
Beneath our feet lie the wired circuits. I set them up in the caverns below in hopes the no one would trip over them. As you can see, the caves have posed more of a threat than any rogue foot… just jump down that well in the barn and you'll see what I mean.

Holy Healiums Balls, Hero! You came just in time. Literally! Professor Iadoa - one of the most renowned Chronomancers to have disappeared from Lore - has returned but… I'm afraid that Drakath has gotten to him! He's been Chaorrupted, and now he's out to freeze Time and prevent the New Year from arriving! He vanished when I returned; I fear what he is doing while we waste Time talking here!
Talk
Iadoa has been studying Chronomancy for - at my best guess - over 300 years at this point by manipulating his way through Lore's Timestreams. He's always hinted that there is so much more to our Timestream than most of us realize. He disappeared decades ago to gather evidence to prove his claims.
It looks like he's found what he needed to know… and met Drakath while he was at it! I don't know what it means for our future, except that if you don't save New Year from Iadoa, we won't HAVE a future!

Mad Scientist, Temporarily Toning It Down
Lim the Mad Scientist and Weaponsmith, here at the service of the royal family and yours! Swordhaven needs frequent safety checks and renovations because of all the nasty invasions. It'll take an expert with an innovative mind, like mine to keep the city sturdy! But…we are dealing with a city of nobles and old traditions. I will have to tone my ideas down, along with my voice apparently. The nobles think I'm too loud.
Capital
Swordhaven is now a city for the Good and Just. King Alteon used to be a warrior that fought for the people, and now he's a ruler that protects them! Anyone that raises their blade in the name of justice will call this place a home away from home…which means it's a big target for ne'er do wells and the like. Despite an invasion happening every weekend, the people stand and grow strong.
History
As much as I would like to bring Swordhaven into the modern age, the capital has a sordid history. Contending with nobles brow beating me about ruining the beauty and tradition of their city is one thing. Digging into the dirt and finding the previous dynasty's cursed dirty laundry is another. This was once Dreadhaven after all. Who knows what's buried beneath our feet.
Tradition
Wouldn't you want a Swordhaven with towers that touch the sky? Automatons to keep the paths clean? Maybe one day but hmph, the nobility prefer brick, mortar, and 'traditional' buildings. I thought I would have the people on my side, and they liked the automaton idea, but were afraid of heights. Fine, I'll keep to only maintaining safety regulations and building reinforcement….for now.
