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.
