"(science fiction, fantasy) A basic unit of magic; a fundamental particle, the magical equivalent of the atom." I think this is only in Terry Pratchett's Discworld universe and thus fails the CFI on fictional worlds. Can anyone prove me wrong? Equinox 16:27, 22 May 2010 (UTC)Reply

Pratchett is the only author I've ever seen use it. It's not listed in the Oxford Dictionary of Science Fiction. --EncycloPetey 19:01, 22 May 2010 (UTC)Reply
