§¨¨¨§¨¨¨¨§ magic is about being unaccountable, §¨§§¨¨§¨¨¨
¨§¨¨¨§¨¨¨¨ about removing the source of the action ¨¨§§§¨¨§¨¨
¨¨§¨¨¨§¨¨¨ from yourself. it works by exploiting a ¨¨§¨§§¨¨§¨
¨¨¨§¨¨¨§¨¨ kind of gravity, called the ¨¨¨¨§§§¨¨§
§¨¨¨§¨¨¨§¨ arrow of time. ¨¨¨¨§¨§§¨¨
¨§¨¨¨§¨¨¨§ ¨¨¨¨¨¨§§§¨
¨¨§¨¨¨§¨¨¨ things in this universe always seek the ¨¨¨¨¨¨§¨§§
§¨¨§¨¨¨§¨¨ least energetic state. all potential is ¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨§§
§§¨¨§¨¨¨§¨ gradually lost into lesser forms (such §¨¨¨¨¨¨¨§¨
§§§¨¨§¨¨¨§ as heat). ¨§¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨
§¨§§¨¨§¨¨¨ ¨¨§¨¨¨¨¨¨¨
¨¨§§§¨¨§¨¨ magic then, is creating tunnels, ¨¨¨§¨¨¨¨¨¨
¨¨§¨§§¨¨§¨ specific and intricate canals, for this ¨¨¨¨§¨¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨§§§¨¨§ to happen in a controlled manner. think ¨¨¨¨¨§¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨§¨§§¨¨ of it as setting an elaborate trap for §¨¨¨¨¨§¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨¨¨§§§¨ entropy. §§¨¨¨¨¨§¨¨
¨¨¨¨¨¨§¨§§ §§§¨¨¨¨¨§¨
¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨§§ and then, when the circuit closes, the §¨§§¨¨¨¨¨§
§¨¨¨¨¨¨¨§¨ arrow is forced to do your bidding! ¨¨§§§¨¨¨¨¨
¨§¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨ ¨¨§¨§§¨¨¨¨
¨¨§¨¨¨¨¨¨¨ of course, you're also irreversably §¨¨¨§§§¨¨¨
¨¨¨§¨¨¨¨¨¨ draining time from the universe, but §§¨¨§¨§§¨¨
¨¨¨¨§¨¨¨¨¨ yeah. ¨§§¨¨¨§§§¨

¨¨§§§¨¨¨¨¨ the danger is a runaway spell - if the ¨¨¨¨¨§¨§§¨
¨¨§¨§§¨¨¨¨ filament of your canal is too weak, or ¨¨¨¨¨¨¨§§§
§¨¨¨§§§¨¨¨ the potential is high enough to escape ¨¨¨¨¨¨¨§¨§
§§¨¨§¨§§¨¨ any self-closing mechanisms - a breach. §¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨§
¨§§¨¨¨§§§¨ §§¨¨¨¨¨¨¨§
¨§§§¨¨§¨§§ these are usually catastrophic. ¨§§¨¨¨¨¨¨¨
¨§¨§§¨¨¨§§ although many are local, they stay ¨§§§¨¨¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨§§§¨¨§¨ active until closed off by counter ¨§¨§§¨¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨§¨§§¨¨¨ spells (hard to pull off) or there's no ¨¨¨§§§¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨¨§§§¨¨ more energy to fall through. ¨¨¨§¨§§¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨¨§¨§§¨ ¨¨¨¨¨§§§¨¨
¨¨¨¨¨¨¨§§§ in that case the outcome depends on the ¨¨¨¨¨§¨§§¨
¨¨¨¨¨¨¨§¨§ spell. small-scale breaches might not §¨¨¨¨¨¨§§§
§¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨§ even be noticeable by the uninitiated; ¨§¨¨¨¨¨§¨§
§§¨¨¨¨¨¨¨§ but a spell might also very well bring ¨¨§¨¨¨¨¨¨§
¨§§¨¨¨¨¨¨¨ about the heat death of the universe. §¨¨§¨¨¨¨¨§
