Now, a lot of the stuff they try to do, is liable to have to go through chemistry at one point or another.

So now that there's an interim contract, how about if, first, Keltham quickly summarizes to them about protons, neutrons, electrons, the Periodic Table of Elements, covalent bonds, molecules, conservation of elemental atoms under almost all ordinary reactions that rearrange the same elements into different molecules, electromagnetic attractions and repulsions, chemical potential energy, potential energy surfaces, activation energies for chemical reactions, acidity and basicness as examples of how the weirdly-shaped electromagnetic energy fields that develop around weirdly-shaped molecules interact and do interesting things, photons as electromagnetic waves, photons have frequencies, photon frequencies get absorbed or emitted based on electron level transitions and that's why the same kind of material stuff usually ends up with the same color, your tongue contains tiny sensors hooked up to nerves that analyze the surface chemical properties of the stuff that comes into contact with them.

Everybody clear on that?

Great!

Those, to be clear, are just the normal Laws of physics.

All that is just the way things worked back in dath ilan.

The real trick is going to be figuring out how to use Prestidigitation - which can, apparently, change the color and taste of things, and therefore, obviously, influence the surface envelopes of electromagnetic potential enveloping molecules and materials - to take the inconvenient rules of normal dath ilani chemistry and flaming snap them like twigs.
