The Foundation of the Magic System
At its heart, the system isn't overly complex; it just requires careful reading to fully grasp.
Every being in this story possesses an inner fragment called the Internal Core or Spiritual Core.
· The Core: Acts as a conduit, channeling the magical energy gathered by the soul into the body.
· The Soul: This is the spirit of the being. Its role is to attract and accumulate magical energy from the environment. The Core then draws this energy from the soul and transfers it to the body.
· The Body: The physical vessel of the creature. It is responsible for projecting the magical energy in a semi-physical form to create Sigils.
· Sigils: These are inscribed characters, derived from an ancient source, that the user draws using magical energy.
· The Adapted Language: The characters used for Sigils are borrowed from the ancient Primordial Language. Different races have developed their own unique adaptations, leading to variations in the sigils' names, forms, and even colors.
· The Ancient Primordial Language: This is the language of the universe's original inhabitants—a transcendent race who discovered profound truths, including this Absolute Language. After their disappearance, the language was lost. Later races attempted to mimic its characters, creating various Adapted Languages, though none match the power of the original.
· Magical Energy: Also known as Aetheric or Ethereal energy. Its role in the story extends far beyond just powering Sigils.

Core Advancement Tiers
The Core progresses through several distinct tiers:
1. Dormant
2. Surging
3. Awakened
4. Rising
5. Ascending
6. Bursting
7. Exalted
8. Transcendent
9. Singular
Furthermore, each tier after Dormant is divided into three layers or phases:
1. Foundation
2. Ascent
3. Breakthrough
More intricate details will be revealed within the story to avoid spoilers.
An individual is born with a Dormant Core. They must subsequently perform a Breakthrough to advance to higher tiers, enhancing their magical prowess and capabilities.
There are three primary methods to achieve a Breakthrough, which will also be detailed in the narrative.
It's important to note that not everyone can wield magic. Some individuals are born with a Sealed Core, completely incapable of accessing magical power. Additionally, there will be special cases mentioned later in the story.
Monster and Beast Tiers
Monsters and beasts follow a different progression system:
1. Frail
2. Feral
3. Bestial
4. Predator
5. Rampant
6. Dreaded
7. Colossal
8. Cataclysmic
They also have means to ascend through their tiers, but they possess only two primary methods for doing so.
Furthermore, there exist rare entities that are born at a higher tier or can break through their inherent limits. These beings are exceptionally uncommon.
