Well, as I said before, "magic" seems to be an actual concept in the FF6 world. It's not just some fancy word people use to describe technology they don't understand. It's an actual force brought on by the Statues and used by the Espers. Through technology, however, the Empire was able to manipulate the magic of the Espers (once they figured out that you had to kill the Espers and use their Magicite) and make Magitek weapons and armor. (Thus, the "magic" that Vicks and Wedge used at the beginning of the game was a mix between technology and magic, whereas the magic that Terra and Celes use, as well as the rest of the characters once you obtain Magicite, is actual magic from an Esper. In Terra's case, some of it is her own magic, being that she is half-Esper, while Celes was infused with an Esper and thus learns some magic attacks without Magicite herself.)
