Keltham's not sure how far they're going to have to go into Law to get Prestidigitation working for them.

Layer one:  There's tiny little pointlike particles called 'electrons' with 'NO' charge being pulled towards nuclei with 'YES' charge.  The electrons repel each other, because like charges repel, so there's only so much room for electrons to crowd around each other, as they get closer to a nucleus.  Actually electrons can only be at certain exact distances from nuclei for, uh, reasons, so there's only so many 'orbitals' or 'electron shells' for them to live in.  The lowest distance can only contain 2 electrons.  The next distance out can contain 8 electrons.

Atoms with more protons, like Element-8 'oxygen', are strongly 'electronegative' and tend to tear away electrons from weaker nuclei like Element-4 'beryllium'; the electrons are still shared, still orbiting around everywhere, but you'll find more of them around the oxygen nucleus and less around the beryllium nucleus.  Which in turn will make the oxygen side of beryllium oxide more NO-charged, since it's got more protons than electrons, since the electrons are crowding around the part with more protons to attract them; and the beryllium side more YES-charged.  This means that beryllium oxide is liable to go forming crystals in which the beryllium YES sides of one molecule can get closer to the NO oxygen parts of another molecule, and the crystal structure will have its own strength - though not as strong as the underlying molecules, which is why it's easier to break substances with a hammer than transmute them.

If knowing layer one is enough to get Prestidigitation working, everyone's lives will be a lot simpler.

Layer two is about why two electrons can fit into the lowest orbital; it's because they need to have different ????-states and there's only two possible ????-states.  Similarly, the next orbital out, that can contain up to eight electrons, is actually two possible states of one kind of orbit, and six different possible kinds of another orbit.

Layer three is that the electrons aren't actually pointlike particles moving around, they're clouds of complex numbers with a wave equation that propagates the cloud, and the reason they can only be at certain exact distances is that their waves would interfere and cancel each other out otherwise.  This is the point at which you could start to calculate where the orbitals go, though it's rapidly going to get harder for anything beyond one electron orbiting one hydrogen nucleus.

Layer four is learning what the clouds are made of, and starts to get into underlying 'realityfluids' and 'anthropics'.
