Beings transfer across the Two Universes involves both the Inside and Outside gaining as much Quanta as is lost so that the total Quanta in both Worlds remains the same. Remember that the two types of Quanta are Aiúas and Stars. We now introduce the First Law of Sentropy:

"Actions result in a reduced amount of order in the sum of both Universes, thereby increasing a quality known as Sentropy."

Hence, there is a definite interchange of Quanta in every Action performed. Do you see how there are two kinds of "actions", one being physical and one being magical? These two are fundamentally different, yet similar. Both reduce the amount of order in the Universes. Likewise, both require something to get started. This concept leads us to the Second Law of Sentropy:

"All Actions, no matter how much Sentropy involved, have an Activation Quanta before they can occur."

An Activation Quanta is the force necessary to drive an Action into commencing. This required Activation Quanta is fulfilled by Stars, and Stars only; it cannot be satisfied using Aiúas.

From this law, we can deduce that, in any action, Sentropy always increases. There is, however, a pattern to be seen. But this applies to the sum of both Universes. There is however another term for the energy and disorder of each individual world: Entropy. Actually, this term came first, but when we add the two values, we obtain the Sum-of-the-entropies, simplified into S-entropy and thus into Sentropy. This fits into what is known as the Corollary to the First Law of Sentropy:

"Actions involving bringing a more ordered Being Inside result in reduced entropy Inside and greater entropy Outside. Actions involving bringing a less ordered Being Inside result in greater entropy Inside and reduced entropy Outside."

Note that this corollary does not state, in either circumstance, which predominates: the gain or the loss; and to which extent one predominates over the other. While the first law already answers the first question, the second has no specific answer, and depends primarily on the efficiency of the magic. This corollary actually has two parts. Note that the first type of Action expends more Stars and generates fewer Stars, and thus require a continuous input of Stars to work, while the second type of Action expends fewer Stars and generates more (in reference to the Asset Universe). The latter type also thus expends only the Stars needed to fulfill the Activation Quanta described in the Second Law. Also note that the Inside begets more Stars at a cost: by increasing its own entropy.
