Hours with Commentary

The Faustian Alchemist

My first thought of my first Hour, was one with a tragic origin of sacrifice and love, of sorts, and the name of this Hour was actually inspired by a metal song named accordingly. As I figured this wasn't enough, I eventually made the origin not as personally tragic (but still involving a lot of dying), and adapted it to the post-apocalyptic theme of the Fourth Fansus, namely by making it a so to say Marxist opponent of The Demiurge, who I didn't even consider at first, among with the other 'Revolutionary Hours'.
