Hi,

This is a bit of a segue, but I've always disliked is the idea that magic is a separate force. That a fantasy world follows the exact same natural laws our does, with magic serving as a set of cheat codes that allows those natural laws to be violated. I much prefer magic to be an innate part of a fantasy world. Magic isn't a violation of the natural order; it is the natural order. A fantasy world isn't run by F=MA and the laws of thermodynamics and Mendelian heredity; thunder happens because spirits are playing not because of electrical potentials, monsters appear by spontaneous generation instead of natural selection, and medicine relies on balancing the humors instead of germ theory for effective treatments.
