Such lavish gifts were seen by contemporaries as being the result of the pair s success in the laboratory, and upon Flamel s death in March 1417, a mob ransacked the house to find the source of their treasure. They found nothing, but, interestingly, both Flamel s tomb and that of Perenelle were found to be empty when they too were broken open. They were said to have gone to India, where they were seen around the year 1700, and were reported to have been seen at the Paris Opera in 1761. [Pg.65]

Thus, from his earliest contacts with the drug, Zachary appeared to engage in a struggle between desire for the drug sensation and desire to control his use.

According to the Turk, Flamel had realized the danger he was in if ever the news got out that he possessed the Philosopher s Stone. Perrenelle had therefore feigned illness and had gone to Switzerland, leaving Nicholas to announce her death. He buried a log in her grave.
