Just an acronym, “ask me anything.” I’m 2 for 2 on that response now, good question though.
In mine, there’s a difference between what we call intrinsic magic and Outer magic. Intrinsic magic is supernatural, literally: higher law, more natural than breathing, adhering to as-above-so-below relationships and local entropy; If you’re who you claim to be, and I don’t doubt it for a hot millisecond, my world would say your existence is as intrinsic as magic gets. Outer magic, outer science, is trying to get something from Nothing - and occasionally, Nothing objects. Or worse, gets interested.
This creativity magic is mostly semiotic stuff; it brings metaphors to life, and is shaped by symbolism and the artist’s will and purpose. Our Dark Magician isn’t tampering with forces they don’t understand, but being a dick with how they use forces they do understand.
