¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨ 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 $;~,¨¨¨¨¨¨

¨¨¨,~;$@## magic then, is creating tunnels, ##@$;~,¨¨¨
¨¨,~;$@### specific and intricate canals, for this ###@$;~,¨¨
¨,~;$@#### to happen in a controlled manner. think ####@$;~,¨

¨¨¨,~;$@## entropy. ##@$;~,¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨,~;$@# #@$;~,¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨¨,~;$@ and then, when the circuit closes, the @$;~,¨¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨¨¨,~;$ arrow is forced to do your bidding! $;~,¨¨¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨¨¨¨,~; ;~,¨¨¨¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨,~ of course, you're also irreversably ~,¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨, draining time from the universe, but ,¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨

¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨ 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. ;~,¨¨¨¨¨¨¨
