An Inkling of New Lore

[S19TealPenguin]

The new Wes Video doesn't have much lore, but it has a little for us to examine.

Firstly - Wes was not an intended victim of the Constant's abductions; he accidently trades places with another who is being about to be kidnapped.
Secondly - Who is the mysterious abductee that Wes inadvertently saved? Well at the end of the short we can see a crate labeled George Wi_____ Dramatics (I can't see the whole crate before the camera pans to the street and youtube's UI gets in the way). The W in his last name is probably important. 
Thirdly, There is a portrait of a man and what appears to be some otherworldly creature, the head shape kind of reminds me of Charlie's hair, but this short takes place while Maxwell is still on the throne.
Fourth - The gramophone in the apartment has the same bell shape as the one in Warly's animated short but a different shape for the base.
Fifth - George is being abducted in apparently broad daylight with no sign of any Radios, Gramophones, Built Doorways, or Magical books

George Witherstone, Maxwell owed him money for magic props so instead of paying up, he moved his act out west. You can see a letter from Witherstone in one of the Maxwell puzzles
