,,,,-=;*%£ magic is about being unaccountable, £%*;=-,,,,
,,,-=;*%£# about removing the source of the action #£%*;=-,,,
,,-=;*%£## from yourself. it works by exploiting a ##£%*;=-,,

,,-=;*%£## arrow of time. ##£%*;=-,,
,,,-=;*%£# #£%*;=-,,,
,,,,-=;*%£ things in this universe always seek the £%*;=-,,,,

,,,,,,-=;* gradually lost into lesser forms (such *;=-,,,,,,
,,,,,-=;*% as heat). %*;=-,,,,,
,,,,-=;*%£ £%*;=-,,,,
,,,-=;*%£# magic then, is creating tunnels, #£%*;=-,,,
,,-=;*%£## specific and intricate canals, for this ##£%*;=-,,

,,-=;*%£## 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 £%*;=-,,,,
