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.
