Example, Snow White was published as a story in the 1800s by the Brothers Grimm. Because the Brothers Grimm wrote it, it happened in the Enchanted Forest. I think this is how it works. LWM is a unique world, different from other worlds. Apart from not having magic, it is the source of the creation of other worlds, and it is the first world to exist in space and time, some of the inhabitants can control and manipulate what is happening in other worlds without them knowing it. What I meant with some, is that only a few people are born with the ability to manipulate events in other worlds, and those people are the writers of the famous stories and fairytales that we know (unlike writers who wrote the recent novels such as the Hunger Games, Percy Jackson, etc.). Worlds like Oz, Neverland, Wonderland, may have been created recently, as the writers wrote their stories after stories that have existed before that happened in the Enchanted Forest. Writers who do not specify what location or world that the story takes place (Once upon a time, in a faraway land), their stories will automaticly occur in the EF. But those who did write the name of world/location (Oz, Neverland, Wonderland, Kansas, etc.) their stories created a world of their own. Later on, the stories that those writers wrote are combined by some kind of a magical authority (the Sorcerer, maybe?) into a magical book that could control what could happen and he/she/it could change it if needed. That makes a lot of sense to me, especially considering the Victorian world that Alice comes from. Like, why would there be worlds constantly stuck in one era unless it was because stories in that era keep being written?
