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.
