-Perseo- Before we discovered philotes, we learned of the existence of a certain function they performed that related to the structure of magical energy. We called what we found "Quoronic interaction"--the ability for "normal" energy to be channeled through substances with special underlying philotic structures such that it is converted.

Wouldn't it be important to know that there's nothing bad coming from your lack of understanding the hows and whys?

-Spectre- Worry not; I [i]do[/i] know my hows and whys. I'm just making a generalisation. Generally, I do that a lot.
