Describe a process: write a description of a process in the manner of an instructor to a student.
While it is a time-consuming process, the hands-on part of the work is minimal. You will want your environment as dark as possible, preferably with no more light than the Alembic flame. While the process is not labour intensive, you do need to maintain a vigil. The spirits will try to escape if given the chance.
Place the Water housing the spirit in the alembic. The spirit’s essence is bound to the water until it reaches a simmer. The heat forces the spirit to break the bond to its habitat.
As the steam rises both the now spiritless water as well as the now angry spirit will come out together. You’ll need a deft hand and a gossamer net to catch the spirit. Once the spirit is in the net transfer it to a crystal jar large enough to hold it. The spirit can now be kept until needed.
