I respectfully disagree. Eva's powers and "immortality" were an extension of a SPELL and that spell needed to be maintained (a true witch/immortal does not need a spell to use magic or live forever). If the spell wasn't properly maintained (having the child of a warlock before the death of her previous child) she would lose her powers, age at an accelerated rate, and ultimately die. Her biology was not that of an Asgardian, but of a regular human. Her mortality was not behind her.

Also, as Ingrid confirmed (and what we already knew), witches can live for a very long time. I believe that we can assume that since Alma did grow old and ill, she wasn't a full witch because it's not possible for a full blooded witch to die of old age, at least not in 90 years. Again, Eva may have had magic and been able to live forever, but she was not a true witch, and her children inherted her mortality.
