((Magic in the world of "fires of Valentia" works like this: in this world there exist beings called "cores", in the game the "cores" are basically the in-game avatars of the game devs but in the lore of the game itself a "core" is a being whose existence is above any and everything else including the gods of "fires of Valentia", they are not really "beings" per say as they don't exist in the same way we do rather than "beings" the more correct term to address them would be "living platonic concepts" or "sentient abstract fundamental functions of existence", as the core (pun intended) functions of basically everything in the universe the cores exist at all places across past present and future and can do things like warp reality, change the plot of the game, flip the power system, delete existence itself etc. and when a being no matter where, no matter when is born or created, a piece of the core's power sparks inside of that being, a fractal "reflection" of the higher existences that dictates everything so to speak and by attuning the "reflection" inside of you to look more like the specific core you're trying to draw from, you can harness an infinitesimally small part of that core's power, we call that power "mana" and depending on the specific core you drew this "mana" from you will be able to alter the world around you with that core's natural function, for example the core of "life", Gaia gives you the ability to heal living things, resurrect the dead, gain immortality and even create life in extreme cases where attunement is at the maximum while the core of "death", Shuriva gives you dominion over death doing things like negate healing spells, afflict strive and pestilence whenever you go and create undead beings, the most extreme case is being given the ability to kill immortals like gods and demons to name a few))
