In terms of wing placement on the lower back, it is actually a poor choise in terms of realistic flight. The reason being is that the wings are too close to the human centre of gravity. For stable and controllable flight you want the wings to be above/in front of the centre of gravity. Otherwise you end up with a situation where the creature is unable to easily control its pitch. as they have no flight correction mechanism to control their pitch. I.e tail feathers etc.

But in terms of connection to the body. the wings would need to be connected beneath the arms and be able to fold back. with strong pectoral muscles essentially giving the creature a quad arms and chest appearance. with the lower chest being larger than the top.

But again, that is realism vs magical fantasy.
