"I made The Monolith Gate after the first three Mologics pieces because I needed an outside. The Glitch happens inside the skull. The Salt Crystal fits in your hand. The Heart of Syn spins in the chest. But eventually you have to walk out onto the plain and face something bigger than you.

The two stones are not religious. They are functional. They are the simplest possible architecture for a portal: two points define a line, a line defines a direction. The planet is not fantasy. It is the next environment you have to learn to operate in.

This is Series IV because it comes fourth, not first. You don’t get to stand at this gate without doing the inner work first."
