The world of Prism is infested with Do. The substance flows through the ground, in the air, and far above as twisting Leylines. At points that seem to be almost random in scope, enough Leylines can converge to create a Well of Do. This Well provides liquid creative and destructive power that seethes and bubbles with potency for a time period before dissipating and moving along at random. Kingdoms of power Organically grow around these Leyline Convergences, the Wells, to utilize the raw Do for their own purposes. The Gridlock, a Lattice of Leylines running the Cardinal directions as a web around and inside of the planet, run in Parallel and Perpendicular Lines. The Scrawl comprises of the wild and free lines of Do that intersect and create the Convergences, making Wells that can be tapped.
Do in raw form has the effect of Burning out the Central Nervous system of whomever or whatever is immersed in it. Land can become twisted or grow verdant on catalyst, Beasts evolving into various new things that only vaguely represent what they were if they survive such immersion. Humanity has taken on Refining the raw substance into Liquor, to ease the consumption and potentially wielding the substance as raw will and intent. It has become a new Tool, and they have created an edible Mage Core to those who react positively to help foster the central power source from the body.
Do Wine, and Do Brew are the two substances that are prized greatly as a chance to change one's fate. The question is, Mortal Man, are you willing to draw on the raw primal elements of what Isn't? Dare you consume the Brew and Eat the Egg of fate?
