The Sylia thing was supposed to be a tie-in to Twisted Path 3, back when DW2 was supposed to take place in that universe; it certainly wasn't intended to be more in the revised plotline. Sylia's showing against Hexe has nothing to do with magery and everything to do with being a badass normal; by Warriors' World standards she already is a super, and thus fought Hexe on (almost) the same level.
