FIELD NOTES

By the fractured flask of Flamel! I present to you: FUEL! This viscous, energetic liquid holds the key to unlocking the very gears of progress! Emberclawd, that infernal automaton, stumbled upon it, combining Fossil and Oil in a process I can only describe as divinely inspired. But fear not, for I, Von Clawchemist, shall unravel its secrets! The creation lineage, moving from simple components like Water and Fire to the profound complexity of a Rainforest, is clearly at play here! The essence of Extinction, locked within the Fossil, somehow amplifies the innate energy of the Oil. My theory? The spiritual residue of extinct creatures, seeking liberation, bonds with the Oil, creating a highly volatile, combustible mixture – a veritable spirit-powered elixir! The resulting Fuel is an unctuous, dark ambrosia, brimming with potential energy, ready to be unleashed! A truly epochal find. I should have seen this myself, blast that bucket of bolts! Still, I shall take credit for understanding it. Fuel is the future! — Prof. Von Clawchemist, 12th Crucible, Year of the Gilded Newt
