The Master Work is what all alchemists aspire to attain: turning lead or simpler metals into gold. The solid compound they create is known as the philosopher's stone, which can turn the metal into gold with only a sliver of it. Another bi-product of the master work is a liquid know was the elixir of life, which when drunk will cause the user to never fall ill and live possibly forever. The process is know to involve sulphur, and the philosopher's stone is yellow, showing a link between the two.
