There is no such thing as a Sorcerer's Stone.  |
What's really ironic is that alchemists did search for the stone for centuries and more often than not instead of finding a way to extend lifespan they probably shortened their own lives by being exposed to all those dangerous chemicals. Transmutation of elements can be done (in a reactor) but the amount of gold made that way is very small and of course you spend more $ making it than you get in return.
