Vitae-silver is a notoriously flimsy bond, at least among those with the permission or boldness to use animismus extensively. I was initially confused at the large ring diagram, but it's more understandable upon considering what happens in the tooth this amalgam is injected into. The Vitae-silver bonds migrate into one another over time, forming a durable crosslinked network. The alchemists of old were as clever as those today--one cannot create polymers directly in an old-fashioned cabinet, so why not make an alchemical that can polymerize on its own?

Maximos Critelli is the kind of person with even more foresight. Cabinets are meant to be moved, and elemental mors is a fine powder--easy to spill some of it, to disaster. Better to output it in a coarser form. But it is not my place to speculate on what he needed pure mors for in the first place...
