Mages believe that we exist within a bubble that surrounds us from the moment we are born. Initially, this bubble is open, allowing for a broader perception of reality. However, as we grow, the bubble gradually closes, confining us within its walls. This bubble represents our perception of the world, shaping how we view our surroundings.

Throughout our lives, we remain inside this bubble, seeing only our reflections on its curved surface. This limited perspective confines our understanding and experiences, suggesting that what we perceive may not encompass the entirety of reality. Thus, our lives are spent navigating within these self-imposed limits of perception.
