Letters from the Hierophant, 0

A novel about time and the magic of Truth.

Estrella has always been known for its education. I am sure you know this already, which is why you write to me those many, many questions I will attempt to answer. It is a small kingdom with but small people whose minds are capable of encompassing almost all of the universe—its founders attempted to do so and wrote as preamble a reminder, or warning if you will, that the path to truth is infinite. The closer one gets to the truth, the farther the truth steps back. The truth is science and art combined, much like oil and water. Hence, the centre of Estrella is majika—magick, the only medium in which the incomprehensible is attempted to be comprehended; the symphony of science and art.
