Whatever is interfering with our magic is here only. It's still working just fine in our factions. When we escape, it will come back, your magic isn't gone. It's just ... blocked somehow.
[ Their connection to the Singularity is fractured somehow, he doesn't know how that happened, but it's also clipping their natural magic.

Or so the Brotherhood would say, but they are very snobby about magic, and he is a product of their beliefs. ]
