Neither, It's a relatively large mana crystal resembling a pearl(color depends on magic type) lodged between the occipital lobe and the cerebellum. For example, mine is a deep, shadowy, abyssal black with an empty feeling aura. Other examples I can give is @Neosaiyan7 who I can only assume has a very similar color to mine tho they would have a more void-ish black that offers a very deadly, almost warlike aura, compared to my shadowy abyssal black. And then there is @Abdalla1234 who, if I had to guess, has one colored a vast, purplish color that gives off a hallowed, free-feeling aura. I'd name more but I'm still getting to know everyone here
