<upd_detl>Could another definition of this be "so-called"?  The quotes in the example sentence seem to support this. 

禁断の魔術とやらは 

"Your 'forbidden magics'" could be read as "Your so-called "forbidden magics'".

Google translates とやら as "alleged", which is similar, and could also be a definition here, I suppose.</upd_detl>

<upd_detl>perhaps, but it's more broad than that.  here are the examples from 
progressive waei
-
留守中に佐藤さんとやらいう人から電話があった
While you were out, 「a Mr. Sato [somebody named Sato] called.
大田さんとやら，どうぞこちらへ
Mr. Ota─that's your name, I understand─please come this way.
彼の父親が来月上京するとやら (いうことです)
His father is coming to Tokyo next month, I hear.

i think it's better left somewhat ambiguous, as is.</upd_detl>
