Many candles are lit in many places around the room; and now on closer view by panning and close-ups, we see the instruments of necromancy: a glass globe containing boiling mercury, steaming crimson poisonous fumes trickling through a tube, distilling jewels into a bottle; piles of raw crystals; jars of fine colorful powders; a large mortar and pestle; and all the other alchemical paraphernalia, as well as walls and walls from floor to ceiling of precious ponderous books in unspoken languages.***Music excerpt is Toccata and Fugue in D Minor for Organ, BWV 565Klemens Schnorr, Artist
