Fart in the Flask

You are the apprentice of Master Aurelius Veyl, one of the greatest alchemists alive. While your master is away, you are given a simple task: clean the laboratory, organize the study, and under absolutely no circumstances open the strange black flask on the third shelf. Unfortunately, the thing inside can talk. It calls itself an enlightened alchemical intelligence. Your master calls it the Fart. Now the Fart wants out—and it is prepared to use philosophy, logic, guilt, flattery, technicalities, insults, and increasingly questionable arguments to convince you. Will you obey your master, outsmart the Fart, uncover the truth behind its imprisonment... or decide that maybe the talking cloud has a point? A sarcastic fantasy comedy about alchemy, temptation, bad decisions, and debating ethics with something trapped in a bottle. This scenario uses a custom turn-based time script to move the story through morning, noon, afternoon, evening, and midnight.
