While the idea that our world (or realm) was once just one of many magical realms strung together somehow until our world went dark without magic and we were cut off from the rest of them …hey it’s kind of interesting. But the story really fell flat for me long before that even came up.
I would be so much better with the idea if they had been leading up to this for years not just in a one-off flashback like “surprise!”
This sort of revelation is best served up after years of hints and teases and clues.
