One thing I do know, this is magic of the darkest kind.
Gaius to Merlin[src]

Dark Magic is a form of magic used to murder, torment, or control other people. It is commonly used by sorcerers with evil or sinister intentions.

Magic itself is basically neutral; its morality is determined by how it is used and the motives of the person using it. However, there are some magical practices that can only be used for evil or to inflict harm upon other people. It is these spells and rituals that are known as dark magic.
