Editing The Red Science

For some, the '''Red Science''' is the investigation of the [[Great Chain of Being]], the metaphysical order of the universe, and how and how this order can be used.<ref>{{Citation|https://fallenlondon.wiki/wiki/Finish_your_Paradoxical_Inversion_of_Inside_and_Out|Finish your Paradoxical Inversion of Inside and Out|Fallen London|}}</ref> For others, the term should be reserved only to the gross and foolish ways those rules can be exploited for treacherous purposes. In either case, the Red Science involve the application of the principles of the Correspondence to reality.<ref>{{Citation|https://fallenlondon.wiki/wiki/The_Theory_and_Application_of_the_Supernal_Arts|The Theory and Application of the Supernal Arts|Fallen London|}}</ref>

The Red Science can be used to modify flesh and break the rules of the [[The Great Chain of Being|Great Chain of Being]].
