It's weird yeah. ^^; I thought about it after I posted that and decided that maybe it's not so much "divine beings" as it is "magic inherent to the realm", ya know? Where the magic that decides Destiny was kept up in the Storybook of Legends and only the most powerful of magic users in Ever After could release it. Raven has been shown that, even when her powers weren't fully developed, she was still quite a bit more powerful than the other magic users at school, which kinda makes me think that her and her mother's magic is some of the most potent magic in Ever After, enough so that once Raven signed the book itself and gained all her powers, she was able to release the magic from the Storybook into the ether, where it's in small enough doses that the regular students could manipulate it with their choices, thus giving them the ability to tell their own stories and not have their destinies be dictated by a magical book.

Whoo, that was long-winded. ^^;
