Synopsis
The alchemist recalls his letter from Maiza Avaro asking him to come to New York after Szilard Quates's death, and another letter requesting to buy his explosives. He thinks back to Szilard's devouring of all the other immortals and chastises him for it - but only because he would have devoured them all instead. After becoming immortal, he was abused by someone he trusted but eventually devoured his torturer. He reveals that he plans to visit Maiza only to devour him. He introduces himself as Czeslaw Meyer to the conductor.
