The reason I ask is that the rise of the cult would be easier to explain if there was some seed crystal for it left over from the previous time of magic. If not an immortal entity, than maybe something they left behind. A book, say, enchanted to reach out to someone once the magic came back. Or more likely a set of books, containing rituals or at least a way to contact the outer entities for instruction in rituals.

The only actual magic that would be required would be something that drew someone suitable to the books to start the ball rolling, something that could operate once the mana resurged.

Maybe the books were stored in some place of power where a trickle still flowed...
