§§¨§¨§¨§§§ 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. ¨§¨§¨§¨§¨¨
