 Facts and Myths about Alloys
 As we head over to the actual reactory, I'll be talking a bit about the history and quirks of the region, and the industry. We'll rendezvous at the cactus at [XXX] and wait for stragglers.
-One of my favorite things about giving this tour is hearing from people who are just beginning to take an interest in alloys. I love answering their questions, and helping guide them to the kinds of experiences that they will find edifying. One question that I get all the time is, "Does Electrum Do Anything?" That's a great, great question, and the answer is "No, it doesn't." There's always some smartass in the back who shouts out that it could be required for a Vigil, or a seasonal event that hasn't been announced yet, but that is basically a semantic argument and they know it. Take that nonsense to a poorly-attended city council hearing about bike lanes. I am talking about real stuff here.

	That's all the time we have. I hope you enjoyed this tour! If you did, please go back to the starting point and mash that Judge button. If you didn't enjoy, there is a warehouse full of free gravel at -7000, -7000, and yowza, you better get going before someone takes it all. Remember to withdraw from the Venery at some point! What is up my Egyptians, see you on the House Chat. -GP		That's all the time we have. I hope you enjoyed this tour! If you did, please go back to the starting point and mash that Judge button.

 Resins
-Now that you've got your coal, let's talk about resin. Resins are tricky. When you first get to Egypt it's like "Oh my gosh, all this free stuff from trees, I bet you can use it to repair student looms or something." That's a pretty cool idea and we might see it in T11. But for now unfortunately, as you can see in the attached chart, resins are pretty useless until you get to reactories. Then all the sudden you're thinking, "Where was that tree? Where was it? I know I just saw one!" Before you know it, it's 2am, you're in VoQ somewhere, and you've harvested 250 debens of herbs. Anyway, every alloy requires a resin. Grab some at the [Tree over there] and we'll keep moving.

 Coal
-The next thing our master artisans need to make an alloy, is coal. Theoretically, a person could get coal at this lead mine, but personally I had a hard enough time getting enough lead for a chisel *without* having to think about how to use a single rock seven times in one pull. You also can't have two lockboxes on the same object, and I didn't want to do, like, a huge wall of text just on the lead mine. So I made a public chest and put some coal in it. If it has been looted by the time you get to it, I'm really sorry. Please judge this Brilliant anyway, I need the TP so I can get the star thing that increases your chances of getting coal.

 How to Use the Reactory
-You've probably walked by a manned reactory and thought to yourself "that avatar has been standing there for six RL hours, he's probably afk." Nope nope! He's just trying to get Automato to work. Oh man, wait untl it finally boots and he finds out there isn't even a reactory script! Lords and Ladies, this isn't the cc hearth anymore. If you need alloys, the only way out, is through. This is the part of the tour you've been waiting for.

This is the part of the tour you've been waiting for.
 To make an alloy, you have to click on these circles. This is much easier in cartographer mode btw, big pro tip there. Every time you click on a circle, all the other circles get closer to the one you clicked on. You want them to get close, but not like, too close. At a certain point, the client will lag for a good three-Mississippi, there will be a flyaway that says something inscrutable like "12%", and that's how you'll know you got too close. It costs 3 coal and a resin to try again, and you basically just do that until you get alloys.

 The Etymology of Egyptian Metalworking
-Alright people, this is our last rest stop before we get to the reactory! A little more about the industry as we walk. Many people believe that 'Water Metal' is a salient example of lazy fantasy copywriting, and that's pretty much spot-on. What is that, Metal from the mysterious and remote Water Region? Is it Metal with Water on it? Or inside it somehow? Why isn't there Fire Metal or Lightning Metal? Things were going really well with Sun Steel and Moon Steel. There was this whole celestial theme, it was consistent, and it made sense. Neptune is really far away, and unattainable without spending a ton of time on it, maybe they could have named a metal after Neptune. I wouldn't make Water Metal at all because it's so expensive, except that it gives you way more blacksmithing hits than Moon Steel. Haha wait no it doesn't.
