That’s right about Mab, my mistake. Yes I believe that about Fae gift giving as well - so my point was that by giving Lea such a powerful magical artifact (there must be a handful of artifacts that would be in the same league as Amoracchius), the BC was trying to create a massive obligation on Lea’s part - one they would likely brutally exploit.

Perhaps Uriel arranged for Lea to get Amoracchius in GP - Lea likely only decided to keep the athame for herself because she had opportunistically been able to get her hands on a commensurate ‘return gift’ - this basically saves Mab from becoming Nfected like Lea was.

While I mostly agree with you, I believe there is an obscure WoJ that almost all wizards have some Changeling blood in their ancestry in the past - this is why they are able to do magic

Ok.  I say instead they are members of the sub species homo wizardnerds. ;)  As distinct from the sub species homo sapiens. :'( As a homo sap I should state that I am green with envy.  In particular of the spell flickum bicus.  As any rational person would be who has tried to start a camp fire in the rain. ;)

Also dogs and coyotes. Either I've never found/been given the proper scientific definition of species, or it's a wrong/incomplete concept.

Except if you consider Molly, she is a wizard, but her siblings are all vanilla mortals..  So your theory of wizards being a sub species doesn't quite work.

I don't think the biologists understand it all that well.

@Mira
Jim plays fast and loose with biology.  On one hand he ascribes magic to a genetic combination.  On the other hand he he states to pass on magic you have to practice magic.  It doesn't make a lot of sense.
