Alchemist Cast Located in Speaker\'s Room/ Orrery

This is of note because in most alchemical schools, the prime materials depicted range from 4, 5, or even 6. I haven\'t really seen a lot of thoughts that have 8 as a prime (there is a few theories of 9 or 12).

8 however, does have significance in the Egyptian mythology, in that it is the numberr associated with the deity Thoth. This is the individual who taught Isis how to ressurrect Osiris (after his murder) - in a similar way of how the Traveler created/taught the Ghosts to ressurrect Guardians.

In this particular scenario:

- Traveler = Thoth
- Ghost = Isis
- Guardian = Osiris

Thoth, who was considered the \"wisest of the Egyptian gods\" was the one who overcame Ra\'s curse (allowing Nut to give birth to her 5 children), drove the magical poison of Set from Horus (and ultimately supported Horus in his battle against Set with wisdom and magic), taught Isis how to ressurrect Osiris, and ultimately even reunited Tefnut with Ra.
