Eco-alchemical Formula

(word-help below)

Take the Prima Materia, the primordial protoplasmic slime, the Ureld-ooze, and distill it to the subtle Samen-flowod, and from this essence condense the amoeboid Proto-Drygand, the Pan-chimaera.
His subtler Sidden, his magical influence, a duft on the luft, seeps into the mind and marrow of the Last Man, postmodern civilized man, and some among these who are ripe to go beyond, develop a new growth amidst their brain, the Lodestone, a crystallization of subtlest Samen, that when full-formed unleashes fantastic primal energies, Ur-nennings, that convert the Last Man to-- Eco-Alf!

ureld= primordial (Ger. uralte).
Samen-flowod= the magical life-fluid.
Sidden= magical influence (OEng. aelf-siden).
Duft on the Luft= haze (emanation, exhalation) on the air (Ger.).
Lodestone= guide-stone (~Philosophers' Stone).
Last Man= Nietzsche's characterization of modern civilized man in his final form, the antithesis of the Overman.  A rather bovine species.
Alfar= the next step.
