Existence is born from balance—a silent agreement between forces that should, by nature, cancel each other out.
Magic, in its fundamental state, is this crystallized agreement: mana.
Mana is not just energy.
It is condensed harmony.
Every spell, every incantation, every way in which mortals shape the invisible is only possible because mana accepts being shaped.
It bends, adjusts, allows itself to be guided.
It is malleable not out of weakness, but because it is governed by a primordial and absolute principle:
Order.
Now… there is the other side.
The side that does not accept harmony, that does not accept coherence, that does not accept existing in the way the universe says it should exist.
The side that refuses order.
That side is Chaos.
Chaos is not "absence of mana."
Chaos is what happens when mana is forced to exist outside the logic that sustains it.
It is the breaking of harmony, the dissolution of natural laws, the collapse of the structure of magic.
