Thinking about rewrites...

True, but that's how I started DW-S, more or less. However, changing the interrogation scene with Charlie to insert backstory is a perfect starting point.

One of his comments to that effect might be a good spot to insert a quick (one- or two-sentence) description of how Doug's magegift works as a point of comparison, and then mention that he's aware of even more powerful mages back home.
Maybe not his magegift, but definitely the guys back home. I could also throw in the bit about the efficiency of the WW version of the magegift, too...

Thanks, guys.
