Por que toda a magia desapareceu imediatamente quando X (A / N) saiu de Xanth?

7

X (A / N) th é descrito como se fosse mágica, como o calor do corpo:

"I did indeed. The Demon X(A/N)th has been confined here over a thousand years. From his body has leaked a trace amount of magic, infusing the surrounding material. Hardly enough for him to notice—just a natural emanation of his presence, much as our own bodies give off heat."
Bink found this as fascinating as the Demon's vortex-Thoughts. "A thousand years? Leakage of magic?"
"In that time even a small leak can amount to a fair amount—at least it might seem that way to vermin," the Magician assured him. "All the magic of the Land of Xanth derives from this effect—and all of it together would not make up a single letter of the Demon's formula."
The Magic of Zanth, book 2: The Source of Magic, chapter 12

Nesse caso, quando ele desapareceu, por que toda a magia parou imediatamente? Por que a magia que já havia vazado em Xanth não ficou ali e se dissipou mais devagar, como uma pedra se refrescando depois que alguém para de se inclinar sobre ela? A magia que já havia vazado em Xanth (mil anos!) Não deveria ter ficado lá, e depois dissipado depois que X (A / N) já não estava mais lá?

Por que toda a mágica cessou imediatamente?

Não foi .

"He's leaked a lot of magic here," Bink said. "It is quiescent without him, but so long as magical creatures like dragons and centaurs remain, we know it hasn't departed entirely.

(Chapter 14, "Paradox Wish")

Parece que talentos (assim como 'efeitos de feitiço' como petrificação) desapareceram imediatamente:

His talent must have saved him, just before it faded. He could not depend on it any more, however; it was evident that spells had been the first magic to go.

(Chapter 13, Magic Loss)

mas criaturas mágicas foram afetadas apenas lentamente:

"In time you will change into your dominant mundane component, or your offspring will. I think that would be a large snake. I'm sorry."

The dragon stared at him in horror. Then it whipped about and half-galloped, half-slithered off.

e

They [goblins] seemed to have been bred from men and rats. Now that the magic was gone, the man-aspect was diminishing and the rat-aspect was becoming more pronounced.

(both from Chapter 13, Magic Loss)

Mas mesmo isso não é totalmente explicado (talvez não totalmente consistente), pois as árvores emaranhadas tornam-se imediatamente inertes ...
