No, this is relatively recent. I'm trying to figure some answers out, and I am not the sort skilled with magic. At all.

[Sidereel? David's going to guess that is the name of a place not unlike the ImPort world, or other places people have come from. Still, being connected to another world is... intriguing.]

I don't know specifics. The Guilds are aware, though. I might be able to find some information for you. But this world sort of... accidentally grabs people as well. Gives them powers too sometimes.
