I *think* I once contacted the Power behind the Engines. (ref: 
../1988/me2.htm) It said, "None will ever know. All must believe." But I 
got some subtext... "You think it's so easy being God? Try it 
yourselves!" So I've tried it a few ways, including via the Engines.

It's been supposed that universal power is too much for a human mind to 
handle. But in my experience, the Engine-Gems of Reality are easily 
handled. It is as though they *want* to be used. You may never 
understand them all, but they won't overload your brain any more quickly 
than a dictionary will. The main problem with using them is, they tend 
to break things much more easily than they fix them. It's like having 
the root password to reality. They do have an Undo capability, though - 
unless the Engine of Permanence is there.

At some level, even Spanker 4 realized the Engines could break things it 
wasn't his mission to break. That is likely why he barely used them at 
all, and only against the creatures which were directly opposing him. I 
know this because... well, I'm getting ahead of myself.
