The Curator’s record

Only fragments remain. They are stored together as the surviving form of the vessel and must not be used to reconstruct a drinking container.

Provenance

The alchemist Elysium offered Sabine freedom from age. Each drink transferred part of a soul into his red elixir, sustaining his own stolen longevity. Sabine shattered the decanter and released its captives.

Observed activity

Surviving red glass may glow at night. Before destruction, faces and skeletal forms appeared within the potion, which created hunger for further doses while diminishing emotion and humanity.

Season 1 · Episode 08

In tonight’s story, we enter the shadowy realm of vanity... and the dangerous pursuit of eternal youth. Deep within an ancient forest lives a mysterious alchemist named Elysium.

When a young woman named Sabine accepts his offer, she discovers that every sip preserves the body... by taking something far more precious from the soul. Tonight, beauty refuses to fade... but humanity may disappear with it.
