[Alchemy Potion Changes]
* Alchemy potions now gain strengthened levels based on alchemy skill (capped by potion quality), with effects increasing according to strength level.
* Strength boost from alchemy potions now individually set by potion type (recovery, ability restoration, etc.).
* Temporary attribute boosts/weaknesses from potions no longer have random variance.
* Temporary attribute boosts/weaknesses cannot stack.
* Blessed recovery potions now consistently boost all related attributes, no longer random.
* Added “temporary attribute cap increase” to the effect of the “Mead Blood” feat.
* (Explanation of temporary attribute boost) If a potion boosts strength by 50 for a character with 100 base strength, the cap (25% of base = 25) limits it to +25. For 1000 base strength, the cap is 250, so the potion fully boosts by 50, but never more.

[Notes]
* Changes in character sprite files may cause glitches with modded character images.
* “What once was” represents residue, not meat—dropped by machines and other non-meat races.
* Seed improvement via millstone and gene extraction may involve additional crafting steps in the future (e.g., using fertilized eggs and gene drugs in a gene extractor).
* Gene drugs currently only available via wishes. Items like gene drugs and runes are being added early as part of future craftable or quest rewards, balanced for the current environment.
* Large-scale farming, bubble factories, and dairy are still pending balance adjustments, but current mechanics will mostly remain as world laws.
* All newly added red books were provided by the Elin community. Thank you for your support!
* The pulpit should eventually allow creating classrooms at home.
* (Trivia) Treasure chests from Fiama occasionally shiver for a few days after being obtained.
