Do Scholars use 'White Magic'

[ChandraNoctis]

I wonder what a red mage will do to draw aether?

Wear dat pimp outfit. It draws chicks and aether. Like a magnet.

A single word (it's unique, exact combination of spelling, pronunciation, definition, connotation, etc.) might not exist for very long at all. But those who knew that word carry its soul across time and space, where it gives birth to new combinations. The spelling changes, sections are added or removed, people change how it is spoken; perhaps it takes on an entirely new meaning or connotation. <snip>

Bolded part is my emphasis, but take that + the book in Gubal HM about the Council of the Magi's decision to rename their Cure spells from Cure, Cura, Curaja, etc. to Cure, Cure II, Cure III, etc. for that exact scenario. Assuming some of the surviving Amdapori went back to the Shroud after the flood to take refuge in what became Gelmorra, or any part of the Shroud (after all, it was Hyurs that became Padjal) they would have had to change the way the magic worked, but kept the same effect of what they wanted.

The fairies, at least, seem to be based on Elementals.
