<Snipped quote by Hael Ignis>

You misunderstand the premise. Magic is a closely guarded secret here, the world has forgotten about it because it's not strong in the real world, to the point where the strongest users can do little more than cast illusions. What makes the Group's magic strong is their contact with Otherworld, the backside of Viewfront.
