Tale of Gluttony
A husband loved his wife and a wife loved her husband. They had children and were happy.
One day the husband met a merchant who convinced him to buy a beautiful necklace. He meant to gift it to his wife but was charmed by the white jewel and wanted to keep it for himself. The husband fashioned the stone into a pendant he could wear.
Each passing day his love for the jewel spiraled to the point of madness. His wife could not comfort him and he treated his children with disdain. The family suspected the gem to be the culprit and stole it.
The husband's frantic search was an initial lighthearted affair.
Then, he killed his daughter. The father realized his fatal error and swore off the jewel, hoping to reconcile with his family and beg forgiveness. However, his wife believed, with good reason, that the person she married was dead.
The opera concluded with the husband slack-jawed sitting in a daze, unthinking, limp, sinking further into that dazzling white jewel.
A standard tragic comedy.

2093 ADEarth's natural resources have been depleted. We Humans could survive only just for a few years. We became desperate, we search and search for new resources for us to exploit, but we never found them. Until someone thought of something. "The society of the past even though they had different problems, they must have an answer to their conundrum. Perhaps we can use them too." We continue our research, nights and days have passed, however all of our research only lead to one thing and one thing only the Philosopher's Stone. It could generate energy without having to take any energy. Basically, it broke The Laws of Thermodynamic and Einstein's Law Conservation of Mass Energy, no, all the rule and law that we know of, doesn't apply to the Philosopher's Stone. But how? Where can we found this crimson colored gem? 2094 ADWe the researchers at the Genesis Lab finally found our answer. The Philosopher's Stone is not a Gem or any other precious mineral. It is an Organism, that can replicate itself perpetually. Our greedy minds have already started thinking of various thing especially about 'how can we abuse this poor thing' kind of thought. We can feed them to livestock. Additionally the excrement of those livestock can be used as a fertilizer. Voila! Infinite food and oxygen. But still, we don't know where to find this crimson colored life-form. Spring 2095 ADWE FINALLY DID IT!When we are deciphering some sort of ancient text related to the Mayans, we found out about where it was and how can we obtained it. The method that ancient people used seems to utilize human sacrifice as an offering to Gods. But hey, now we know that Gods exist, and more importantly Their whereabouts. If the ancient people used human sacrifice as the toll to open the portal. Then, we the modern people could simply use some sort of mini-sized black hole with specific coordinate to force this hidden life-form come to this world. Fundamentally, we just needed to mimic the portal that Gods himself open to answer their offering. Allright, let's do this. Summer 2095 ADEverything is progressing as we wanted.Every trivial thing on our side seems to be working in order.We can commence the operation 'Child's Play' early next year.-LB-
