Telmori wolf brother/fireblade clarification

[Agentorange]

The Gloranthan bestiary  page 85 says of wolf brothers

"...Only  enchanted rune metals can harm them as well as magic. thus they will be fully affected by a Fireblade put on a Bronze weapon. "

But....both RQG core rules p262 and the RBOM say of fireblade "this damage cannot be magically resisted because it is real physical damage from the heat of the fire"

In other words the damage is NOT magical but just physical damage. So shouldn't wolf brothers be unaffected by Fireblade ?

Just play it so that the fireblade harms the Telmori despite the heat being non-magical and have the local Lhankoring Temple destroy themselves in an academic feud trying to resolve the matter.
