Introduction: Additional trigger warning: mathFive hundred years ago, the ruling Government of Halton made a deal (Read: Work Order) with God to introduce a Unified Nexus Theory as a unifying framework to solidify the laws of science. In the years hence, 'mages' have been born, with the unique dual traits of being able to perceive and conceptualise the Word of the Gods. Through such, magic has been developed, heavily regulated by Halton's system, via rewriting in the Word the Gods the Lagrangian (Lagrangian density) for the Unified Nexus Theory and powering the subsequent mandala in order to locally renegotiate the laws of physics to actualise 'magical' effect upon the world. Recently, a Fourth Work Order has been negotiated by Halton with God regarding Iphigenia. She has been brought into the world, her fate already planned and calculated. In her old life, she was sacrificed, thrown off a cliff for unpalatibility. She hasn't yet much memory of her past, but slowly, that past as a gunsmith slowly surfaces. But that past is still gone. It may have shaped her, but obviously, the present world is more important. Reborn into a new world of mages, leviathans, and blue, she will carve out for herself something of a life that she never lived.Halton has a plan to make their control over reality complete, a plan that will take twenty years to actualise. In the meantime, Iphigenia attempts to discover herself, her future, her past, with the intermittent interference of Beryl, a machine Power.  Note: The cover is Vincent Van Gogh's Pair of Shoes (June, 1895, Auvers-sur-Oise) - it is in the PUBLIC DOMAINWhat to Expect:An extremely detailed physics-based magic system, as well as a fictional (theoretical?) unified nexus theory that simplifies physics into a (obviously) unified frameworkschool lifelots of magicno harem, unless you mean like a platonic friend groupweekly uploads (at least one a week)...
