In the Arcanex galaxy, traditional means of communication such as telecommunications, radio, internet, and television do not exist. Instead, the standardized method of communication relies on a spell known as “Projection.” This spell allows the caster to consume mana to send either audio or visual messages to another person they have previously met.
When a Projection message is sent, the recipient is alerted by a small, glowing visual rune appearing in the corner of their vision. They must accept the message within the first 10 seconds, or it will disappear. This ensures that the recipient is available and willing to receive the communication at that moment.
For those fortunate enough to possess an Arc Imprint, messages can also be stored for later viewing. The Arc Imprint is a bionetic device that allows individuals to save and replay Projection messages at their convenience, making it a vital tool for communication in the galaxy. The widespread use of the Projection spell and Arc Imprints ensures that people can stay connected across vast distances, maintaining relationships and sharing important information without the need for traditional technology.
