MAGIC         
                          
                                   
                                          
    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. 
                                          
                                          
                                       
                                          
                                          
 WELL. IT  IS  WHAT  IT IS. A DYING ART.. 
           MAYBE FOR THE BEST.
