Magic is the term for unexplained phenomena that have yet to be fully understood. And we don't really fully understand the powers of the First Civ, there isn't that much explanation to all the unbelievable powers. Besides this is an alternate reality, for all we know there never was a legendary Red Willow in Connor's original time-line in the first place.
