I think the trick is in making it obvious what the thing is and not making hard to pronounce.

If you keep "magic"...Interesting question. If you keep "magic" as a different term, you set your world apart. As long as you define your "magic" in such a way that the reader clearly understands, I don't see a need to change it. I've got a book about fairies, but I never call them fairies. They have an entirely different name, thus a different culture, and thus become an entirely new entity. That's our prerogative as writers, right?
