Song of the Alchemists is part V of Marobar Sul’s Ancient Tales of the Dwemer, told as a rhyming song. A Dwemer king needs a new alchemist and pits two candidates against each other: whoever brews a working invisibility potion gets the job. The twist comes when the king makes them drink their own brews. A note at the end points out that the Dwemer setting is doubtful and the song later became a tavern tune in High Rock.
