Let me tell you a little about the nature of what you vaguely call "magic."
I have never liked that word for it because it describes too poorly the reciprocal action of energy that only a few are capable of generating with enough power and control to affect the material plane.
Those of us who have been blessed with the ability to control the ebb and flow of Mana do not see the world as mere mortals do. Our minds exist at the same time in the everyday material world and the dazzling magical world that only users of this power can know.
This is so in the case of all sorcerers, Wizards, Witches and any user of arcane powers, including those who practice the science of death.
