Imagining that "stuff from other universes" does stuff in -this- universe is actually imagining that it follows the rules and laws of -this- universe. How else would it persist or interact? OP wants it to be capable of magic in this universe, which is to say capable of breaking the rules OP insists upon...
Why couldn't something magical be from this universe, if it's only function is to break one rule (say, that everything must have a cause) but it has to follow all the others..why source it from somewhere else? If magic from another universe can exist in our universe and effect our universe, then it must be possible for magic from -our- universe to exist here and do the same as well.
I really don't know what the point of all of this is.
