"I wouldn't particularly expect imaginary magic invented by a world with no magic in it to end up as plausible Spellcraft.  I suppose the Outer God could've encoded a hint into your dreamworld's fiction... except for the part where taking this hypothesis on your own terms, dath ilan is not a dreamworld, and is instead a real nonmagical world whose fiction is taking utter shots in the dark with no experience of actual magic's laws."

"It doesn't sound like any spell I can remember hearing about.  It wouldn't stabilize at merely 8th circle, that's for sure.  Maybe very very distantly, it sounds like a warning I got at 5th-circle about why our Church tries to avoid conflict with the High Priest of Nethys unless we have enough of an overwhelming advantage to win across all possibilities.  But even Nefreti Clepati can't directly pull alternate versions of adventurers into our own world... or if she can, I don't know about it... and Nethys is probably the closest thing to an Outer God in nature, if not in power, among the deities short of Pharasma."

"False memories is frankly the lower-circle hypothesis.  But I suppose that isn't actually decisive, when you're considering an Outer God that bothered to throw you onto another planet in the first place."

"What would this theory say about the way you got here?"

"And what possibilities or rules does it suggest about how we might get out?  Or -- what happened to the original Mariona, if you're not her?"
