"When I had the knife in my throat, I felt extremely lightheaded and my life flashed before my eyes. To understand my theory completely, we need to go back a few years then again to when you guys first discovered magic."
"When I was with the circus there was this shaman or gypsey, call her what you will, but every time she performed, I would feel a shiver and some kind of sense of direction. I was intrigued and had a look-see through her stuff while she was in a private session elsewhere. I found a book and it literally gave me a headache to look at, I had to go and take two panadol tablets. The weirdest thing was that I had this other weird feeling, like I was meant to try and decipher it. But alas, I was young and scared."
"Now we skip ahead to when you guys discovered magic. Whenever you guys cast a spell I could always nearly sense where you were and what it did. I was scared of this, so I kept quiet. It wasn't my brain which seemed to know, nor my heart, but my entire blood seemed to yearn for the magic that you guys were doing."
"When I had my life flashing before my eyes, my memories locked on a simile to my current situation. There is a scene from an old movie where an evil magical guy was torturing the guy destined to 'restore balance' or something. Then my blood started burning and I felt power like no other, and before I know it, Jane flew off of me through some kind of power that I channeled. Still drawing from the simile I thought of lightning and struck Jane down with it. The video cameras can explain the rest."
"So my theory is that everyone has a kind of 'magic potential' or 'magic sensitivity' inside them. Normally in such small amounts that it is insignificant, I must have been born with an absurd amount of it. That, coupled with my knowledge of you guys knowing magic, must have ended up unlocking magic for me, based off of a memory. The blood coming from my throat seemed to boil and disappear, so either I was hallucinating or it was e=mc square n action with the amount of power I felt."
"So that's my theory, likely completely wrong, but that's the best I can offer. I have no idea how I would go about making an eldritch pact even if I wanted to, I've only ever interacted with Arthur's friendly dude in the flight sim."
