Gadzooks, a breakthrough! Mirror, reflective and enigmatic, has finally yielded its secrets, though I seethe that it was Telchar who achieved this. Mirror's genesis lies in the union of Glass with itself, a symmetry most pleasing. Glass, of course, arises from the fiery kiss of Fire upon Obsidian, a dark progeny of Steam and Lava. The reflective nature is almost certainly due to quantum entanglement between the two Glass pieces, creating a shared reality where light cannot escape, only bounce! I propose the silicon lattice within the Glass aligns perfectly, forming microscopic portals to a dimension of pure reflectivity. These portals then amplify and redirect incoming photons, creating the uncanny illusion of seeing oneself. Mirror offers endless possibilities for illusion, disguise, and perhaps even, dare I say, interdimensional travel! Imagine, reflecting our way across the cosmos! The potential is simply blinding. I should have seen it sooner! — Prof. Von Clawchemist, Sunstone 12th, Year of the Newt.
