How Talismans Work

Therefore; if you know how to write the symbol, then you can use one symbol to change another symbol. This is how the talismans work. Symbols have an immense power. Look at the Swastika, for instance; because of its use in World War Two, it has the capacity to inspire intense reactions and emotion in people. (It is, however, a far older symbol than that, and has had different, far more positive meanings in the past).

While symbols can be used to manipulate human existence, Man has long put them to far more powerful uses, such as influencing the spiritual realms. Chinese philsophy and religion have long recognised this.

We humans live in a world of three dimensions, but just because we perceive only three, it does not mean there are not more. Imagine being able to only perceive in one dimension: all you would see of things would be a dot.

Or two dimensions: everything would be made up of flat lines. If a three dimensional object passed through your field of vision, you would only see it as two dimensional, because that's what you would be limited to.

Similarly, we who perceive in three dimensions sometimes see things which are out of the ordinary; sometimes explained as ghosts or spirits. These are entities which exist in more dimensions than our three. Talismans can be used to bridge the gap between these dimensions and to manipulate reality.
