Draft proposal for C. H. Bage's Third Agent alchemical theory. Includes his notes on models, rituals and reasoning to prove and contact a proposed 'mediator' element in alchemical rituals. Bage believed that equivalent exchange theory falsely attributed value exchanges at the time to predetermined conditions. Instead, he proposed a 'third agent' or mediator element which could potentially hold a range of authority over all alchemical rituals and exchanges.

C. H. Bage was unfortunately pronounced deceased after a prolonged missing persons case. His third agent theory was left incomplete.

Bage's theories have largely become outdated in modern alchemy studies. However, they continue to receive a cult following especially amongst more unconventional researchers.

This text was inspired by House of Leaves and Fullmetal Alchemist.

It’s staggering that people are still entertaining the ideas of a charlatan like C H Bage. An age of empirical observation should hold no truck with such softheadedness, but no matter. Worth indulging your historical curiosity, but to be approached with caution.

I didn't know what Ergodic literature was before this.
The whole thing is really cool and sort of redefines what I consider a game
