[@Keileon] Eh. The only real difference there is whether or not you're drawing upon energy from within yourself or from external sources. But I've seen Mana used to describe living energy in nature as well as within the body and vice versa. That's why I say these words are LITERALLY interchangeable at the drop of a hat, boils down to nothing more than personal preference in terms of which labels one likes better.

Yeah, it just depends on the setting. There are some where Mana and Prana are both different things in the universe, some where one exists but not the other, and some where they're the same thing. Creative liberties and all. Kind of interesting, but it means these settings can be tricky to mix which is what I was getting at.
