->The type of magic a mage is connected to is based on their inner nature – their personality, character, and soul. You could say that someone’s magic is an expression of their inner self, but it’s just as true to say that someone’s magic ''is'' their inner self – certainly mages can’t survive without their magic and in the rare cases where it’s separated from them they don’t live long.

It's not important what they are exactly, whether that means [[WitchSpecies a different species]], or simply another branch of humanity, perhaps older, perhaps more evolved, perhaps less.
