Daemon outside alchemy Dust daemon magic variety imagination person

External daemons turn something into dust by various means which you might imagine to be magic?

[Kappa]

There is an "outside/external" in this answer, but it's not the bread!

Alchemy is kind of distantly related to the meaning of crucible!

Variety and imagination are incorrect!

XD

(Also I might as well note that the baby is being used for a meaning closer to 'people' than 'person', although the alethiometer's interaction with plurals does tend to be a little chancy.

[Shoal]

crucible = chemistry? science?

[Kappa]

No and no. Apparently I'm right about it being obscure XD

[Alicorn]

I'm gonna move this to Miscellanea.

[Alphabeta]

Yeah, I'm stumped.

[Kappa]

daemon body made-of Dust daemon magic outside/external part/aspect person

Daemon bodies are made of Dust; they are magical externalizations of a part/aspect of people.

...okay, I get the symbolism now... am I just really bad at this, Alethiometer?
