"The key to sorcery lies not in the apparent tone emitted by promenia, but the discrepancy between two particles' frequencies. Thus, the presence of at least two promenia particles is a prerequisite for any sorcerous undertaking.
"The sorcerer experiences a binaural tone effect when interacting with the pair because the differential frequencies emitted by the promenia particles cause entrainment in the brain. The entrainment produces the illusion of an audible tonal sensation located at a specific point within the sorcerer's cranium.
"The sorcerer aligns their neurological activity with the illusory sound-sensations experienced, generating alterations in the frequency emitted by their body's prometus. In turn, the sorcerer's prometus triggers changes in the frequencies emitted by the paired promenia particles.
"A variety of interactions between sorcerer and promenia become possible through this process, producing a vast array of magical effects."
