In other words, they have magic, just a different term for it. A good part of it lies with the differences in culture as well, I believe. Still, it's pretty amazing to find cultures from other worlds entirely that do share the same terms. I mentioned to Yuri that food was another interesting item of note in the same vein- that we've all been cooking our usual meals here, and yet they look like something I could also obtain back in Elympios.
