Solara Radium 05:
Over a year since I've started my path on this insanity to make a new form of Alchemy, and I am close to seeing it coming to fruition. The crystals that I'd managed to reproduce a year ago, from here on I shall call them Belaru Crystals, did indeed absorb a variety of light wave spectrum. More fascinating is that the Belaru Crystals absorbed more than just the visible light spectrum that is seen by the eye by taking on wavelengths from both Infrared and the Ultraviolet range as well. Why I considered this fascinating after checking them shows how sometimes you can get a little too close to your projects and not keep in mind rather simple principles. I am attempting to make Sunlight Alchemy and the Sun produces easily all three ranges of spectrum I've captured.
Without surprise, the Belaru Crystals that have absorbed the spectrum of Infrared and Ultraviolet show no discoloration or change from the milky translucence of the crystals natural state. However various spectrometers, photographic filters and electromagnetic resonators do indicate these crystals carry these charges. Those that were charged with the visible light spectrum all hold graduating degrees of hues and tones as they move from low range reds all the way up the rainbow colors to high range purple. If these crystals are to be a foundation of use in Solara Radium, it will behoove me to find a way to classify or label them in a unified way that students can use consistently.
Since visible inspection of a Belaru Crystal will not tell if it is truly charged or empty as some spectrum are beyond sight, I am a bit undecided between classing by wavelengths which in these spectrum range as long as a millimeter to as short as a nanometer. The other classification is by vibration frequency at which the wavelengths can oscillate when produced that are measured in the range of Gigahertz up to Petahertz. Unless I can find a method to incorporate a sleeve for a Belaru Crystal to be housed in that would give both wavelength and oscillation rating at the same time" Nothing too far fetched to be achieved in the science wing with some time I am sure.
The reactions of each crystal upon various Alchemy processes has not been so precise to study. I must admit a bit of self-defeat as some experiments were called off in the interest of preserving the Belaru Crystals I have as their currently known method of production is rather chaotic and dangerous to allow my small quantity to be easily consumed. What has been noted is the following:
Visible Light spectrum from Belaru Crystals shown upon achlemical potions during distillation phase produce neither addition nor detrimental effects. From this I can only draw some educated guess work for hypothetical testing later that the wavelengths produced by each section of the Visible Spectrum lacks enough vibrational frequency to affect anything it is shown upon during the processing phase. Though I have some hypothesis about finding a way to get Belaru Crystals imbued with the Visible Light spectrum distilled into the process directly to see if it will produce a shaking or molecular memory effect that Homeopathic Dilution produces.
Visible Light spectrum from Belaru Crystals have shown some marked improvement on reagents while they are still in their growing, unharvested state which, in a basic way, means that light in various wave lengths are needed for life. No mystery here, but what this means is a possible way to create easier methods to facilitate indoor cultivation of various rare or delicate reagents often region or realm specific requiring fine tuned light spectrum from their native habitats.
Infrared spectrum from Belaru Crystals has had some marginal effects on the alchemical process, mostly in producing increased reactivity of some reagents while rapidly destroying others in seconds if not careful. More calibration and study is needed with them. Again, a way to distill the spectrum directly into the process may be of more use if a way is possible than relying solely on the impact of the vibration frequency upon combined reagents and containers in use.
Ultraviolet spectrum from Belaru Crystals has shown the most peculiar response. During the initial alchemical process, no effect is seen until the product is completed and allowed to batch or set. Once the product has finished setting, the usual and predictable results are no longer predictable and usual. Mutational effects can be seen within the various products, some towards greater affect, others towards negative, harmful attributes that would cause anyone imbibing them severe harm. More study is needed on it, perhaps filtration and a linear graphing to show where the apex of positive attributes climaxes then falls into rapid negative mutations. Once more, distillation into the process may be more stable.
This leave me several headaches now. The primary headache is how to recreate Belaru Crystals without the big explosion needed and whether or not Belaru Crystals can be synthesized with other materials as well. Next, once I can figure out that issue, can a Belaru Crystal be crushed or liquefied and still retain the light spectrum in it' Can any of this be done in a way to allow a student to study and enjoy a new method of alchemy or have I just created a niche form of Master Alchemy' Sometimes I wonder if there was not a way I could create a specific artifact or device, like some kind of sun tower that can be built by anyone, it could maybe produce the same type of crystal, or perhaps provide a way to distill what I am needing into the process"
Dear gods I need coffee and a long stroll on the beach.
