If you can essentially become God, do you think housing matters?
What I'm trying to say is, Alchemists are not bound by any physical laws because they can create anything they want, and in retrospect, YOU become one, if you know how the alchemy system works.
Check Ryza 3. You laugh at the people's faces, with what you can create.
Yumia has no cauldron because alchemy is forbidden, reminds me of hidden christianity, in a way (look it up).
And of course Yumia won't hang around in city's for a long time. In this game Alchemy is hated by most people (and maybe even outlawed?), and if Yumia will hang around in a city for too long, chances of her being unmasked as a Alchemist will become extremely high. In case of discovery chances are high she will be expelled from the city borders, or even worst.
Settling down outside any city in her own house (that she will not openly call a Atelier of course), makes the chance of having a relatively peaceful life much higher.
Mind you - This is all speculation based on some game play I saw. It's fully possible I am completely wrong, so take it all with a grain of salt...
Hmm, speaking of the quick alchemy, I think you may be right. Either that or alchemy works by harnessing mana, again going by the gameplay?
Using those Atlas cores, maybe.
Homonculi don't make for good companionship and anyway Yumia isn't equipped to make those.
in one of ryza 2 ruins, they explain that the clint kingdom invented alchemy as a way to search and recreate the original magic/alchemy done with just mana of even more ancient people...
it could be that yumia inherited THIS form of pure alchemy, or a bastardisation of it anyway.
thus she doesn't need a cauldron at all, but just magic (and dance I guess?)
As I said before. Alchemy is frowned upon and even illegal in some places. If Yumia should socialise with people in towns, then people will find out, and she will get black-eyed or even worst in no time. Do not forget - Yumia is a outcast because of her Alchemy.
Of course she will live outside city's. People don't want Alchemists in their town. If she would live there, then chances are high they will throw her out of town, or even attack her, if they learn she's a Alchemist (and even worst, if she practice it).
She wants a peaceful life, so the best thing she can do is living outside city's and keep her level of acquaintances as low as possible (and keep a low-level herself). If too much people learn about her alchemy, chances are high she will driven out of her house, even if that house is not in the city.
This is, of course, all speculation with the knowledge we have now. How things really are we will learn when the game is released I guess...
Unless it's an urban hermit's life, with games and take-out.
As far a I understood, that's one of the core themes of the game. To let people see that Alchemy in itself is not the "big bad boy", but the people or entities that misuse it.
She wants to make Alchemy acceptable, and by that herself. That way she not longer has to live the life of a hermit, but can live amongst other people.
Again - This is all speculation because we have not played the actual game yet. Maybe I am completely wrong, or not completely right. It's impossible to say anything about that at this moment. Maybe we all get a good laugh about my stupid predictions in the future. Who knows?
