The ultimate source of all magic is the wonder, glory, and terror felt by a sentient (not necessarily sapient) being, when it experiences something it does not understand. Every moment of such experience generates a few "motes" of miraculous power which float free into the universe, and eventually a few million of those "motes" gather together, latch onto the wishes or fears of some sapient entity, and produce a miracle. When that miracle is itself sapient, we call it a god; otherwise, it simply transforms reality, possibly by granting an entity (again, sentient is potentially enough, but usually sapient is also required) the power to perform multiple such transformations.
