That raises some very interesting points from every point of view from modern physics.

The effect, presumably only applied to Earth, causing that sorta **** throughout the galaxy would have made putting Earth on the map with the Reach pretty pointless, Everybody would wanna know why the hell all that happened. So, to avoid having spatial effects on the rest of the universe, there would need to be something maintaining Earth in it's position. Three options I see for this;
 * One of the earths get's precedence. Kinda lame for the other one which needs to be created in a pocket dimension.. 1Mc^2 required.
 * Two Independant Earths are created in pocket dimensions, while the True Earth is empty, this would require the creation of two seperate Earths basically. 2Mc^2 required.
 * The dimensions were different phases, Earth would basically exist in all phases already, would just require shifting all the people and maintaining the phases. 0Mc^2, but the vibrational energy.

This energy derived from the 5 mages +a significant amount from the Ambre Jeune Perdu I assume. Yeah, a crystal would probably maintain frequencies for the magic as well, that probably makes the Dimensional Phase Shifting to be way it was done, as any other would be frankly, too much energy for them to make, any one of them could just nuke everything on a level that'd put the War World to shame.

And this, ladies and gentlemen, is what you get when you have a physicist who has no qualms over the existence and principles of sorcery.
