¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨ 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 ####&*§†«¨

¨¨¨¨«†§*&# ENTROPY. #&*§†«¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨¨«†§*& &*§†«¨¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨¨¨«†§* AND THEN, WHEN THE CIRCUIT CLOSES, THE *§†«¨¨¨¨¨¨

¨¨¨¨¨¨¨«†§ THE POTENTIAL IS HIGH ENOUGH TO ESCAPE §†«¨¨¨¨¨¨¨

¨¨¨«†§*&## ##&*§†«¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨«†§*&# IN THAT CASE THE OUTCOME DEPENDS ON THE #&*§†«¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨¨«†§*& SPELL. SMALL-SCALE BREACHES MIGHT NOT &*§†«¨¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨¨¨«†§* EVEN BE NOTICEABLE BY THE UNINITIATED; *§†«¨¨¨¨¨¨
