X???~X785

Prologue: The stage is set for the recent events.

An entire noble family, murdered. The masters of all the Light Guilds, ordered by the Royal family to invest and defeat the one responsible. But even with the Rune Knights to help them, they reached the town and found it completely abandoned. With the interference of Cesare, the master of Phantom Lord, he wound up fighting Lance, master of Blue Pegasus in Castle Solace, while Cecilia and Aguero of Fairy Tail and Lamia Scale instead ran into a mysterious masked man. As they battled, whatever grievous damage Aguero inflicted was reflected back to his own body. Using their interference as an opening to Escape, the masked man leapt off the castle, only to land atop his mysterious ship. Desperate, the council took aim with the Etherion Cannon, only for the beam to be reflected back to the Etherion system, obliterating it and disabling the Council's strongest defenses. The loss of the Etherion Cannon weakened the council and the country, allowing the Dark Guilds to run wild. The war had only just begun. The masked man would come to be known as Crowley, the master of Grimoire Heart.

X785

X785, March 24th: Crowley of Grimoire Heart plans an attack on the Rune Knight's headquarters in Era.

After the slaughter of the corrupt Solace noble family, and the stealing of the Etherion Cannon from the magic council, Crowley plans his next move, hiring Phantom Lord to aid them in the attack. With many of the councilmen busy on other Countries, Grimoire Heart takes the opening to strike.

X785, March 24th: Grimoire Heart's Ark arrived in Era to free Theseus.

Arriving in Era in the dead of night, Grimoire Heart attacks the headquarters of the magic council, hellbent on liberating their captive comrade, Theseus, putting their plan into motion.

X785, March 24th: Yumi and Erebus successfully steal the Magister's Index.

Amidst the chaos of Grimoire Heart's attack on Era, two members try to steal the Magister's Index while it's being transported: an artifact containing troves of top secret council information. Despite the presence of Kazumi and Tori from Fairy Tail and Ace and Kon from the Rune Knights to escort the transport, Yumi and Erebus intercept it and steal the Index.

X785, March 24th: Nastasya and Odin attempt to free Theseus and succeed despite being defeated.

Nastastya and Odin of Grimoire Heart ambush the wagon in which Theseus is being transported. Though Ace, Hikaru from the Rune Knights and Houren from Fairy Tail defeat the interlopers, Theseus escapes in the chaos from the battle, and successfully rejoins his comrades of Grimoire Heart.

X785, March 24th: With the Index stolen and Theseus freed, Grimoire Heart attempts to destroy the Council Headquarters.

The Era campaign had proved a frightening success for Grimoire Heart who succeeded at stealing the Magister's Index and freeing Theseus. With their ark stationed just outside Era and their objectives complete, they plan to use the stolen Etherion Cannon to destroy the council Headquarters. Their attack is stopped by Arisa and Maarshalk of Lamia Scale and Leyaria and Finn from Blue Pegasus, who successfully defeat Bianca, Roman and Caius, destroying the targetting beacon and preventing the devastating attack.

X785, May 25th: The Mysterious being Cell creates an arena and challenges Fiore's fighters to battle.

Though many fighters fell in the attempt, Cell was eventually defeated before he could pose a threat to the world at large.

X785, July 25th: The Demon Astares challenges the city of Era, and is beaten by the defenders.

Rather atypical for a Demon, Astartes simply awaited outside Era, instead of slaughtering random citizens. Biding his time until someone is brave enough to face him appears. He opposes the forces of the Abyss, and judges good and evil by one's character rather than their race. However, he sides with mortals in opposition to Demon Lords. Rather than enemies, he seeks to find a partner, relinquishing his soul to become a Take Over spirit. Though his challenge is bested by Adelaide, Konstantin, Alisa and Kerii, neither of the four meet his standards or wish to inherit his magic, and the demon simply takes his leave, hoping to find a partner elsewhere.

X785, August 15th: After freeing Theseus, Grimoire Heart turns its attention to the Light Guilds, starting with Blue Pegasus.

Crowley, the leader of Grimoire Heart who once defeated the Solace noble family and destroyed their castle, continued his rampage after stealing the Etherion Cannon from the Magic council and liberating its prisioner, Theseus. He now turns his attention towards Blue Pegasus, planning an attack on Hargeon with Icarus as his Sword and Theseus as his Shield.

X785, September 8th: Faust and Alyssa of Grimoire Heart battle Snowflake and Chelvaric.

In another part of Hargeon, two members of Grimoire Heart, Alyssa and Faust, take on Chelvaric and Snowflake of Blue Pegasus inside a bakery. The battle ends with a victory for Blue Pegasus.

X785, September 8th: Caius of Grimoire Heart faces off against Noel and Atlas of Lamia Scale.

Another battle takes place in Hargeon Square, where Caius' advance is stopped by the two mages of Lamia Scale, Noel and Atlas. After a swift exchange of blows, the fight ends with a decisive victory for the Light mages.

X785, September 8th: Alisa of Blue Pegasus fights Odin of Grimoire Heart.

Though they'd been aquainted with each other, Odin, like most members of Grimoire Heart, had kept his real affiliation a closely guarded secret. But a fully armed and armored stranger in the middle of the battlefield gave that identity away, and the two clashed, until Alisa seized victory.

X785, September 8th: Finn of Blue Pegasus stops Yumi from Grimoire Heart.

In another swift victory for the defenders, Yumi is defeated not by Finn but his brother Jake the Dog. At the end of the fight, Finn never even know his opponent's real identity.

X785, September 8th: With Theseus joining the battle in Hargeon, Adelaide stands alone and is defeated.

Waiting paitently for the knights to meet him. Theseus merely grabs himself a cup of coffee and awaits patiently for opposition to arrive. He's met only by Adelaide who arrives before her companions. Defeating Adelaide, Theseus claims victory for Grimoire Heart.

X785, September 8th: At the climax of the battle for Hargeon, Icarus fights and kills the masters of Blue Pegasus and Phantom Lord.

Despite the valiant efforts of Light Mages and Rune Knights, Icarus makes his way to Blue Pegasus and engages Blue Pegasus' Master Lance in battle. Despite the assistance of his brother, Cesare, the master of Phantom Lord, both brothers perish in battle against Icarus. Geb of Phantom Lord survives the battle, bearing witness to the deaths of both masters alongside veteran Phantoms Nagi and Ishtar.

X785, September 11th: In the wake of the battle for Hargeon, Crowley meets an old friend named Reign.

After achieving his objective in Hargeon, Crowley makes a pit stop to see Reign, a young local noble, who recognizes him as a childhood friend. Though overjoyed at the sight of a friend he'd long thought dead, he opposed his involvement of Hargeon in his quest, while Crowley merely came to visit him, not ask for his permission. Crowley put the man to sleep, erasing his memories of the meeting before departing.

X785, September 27th: After Lance and Cesare's passing, Blue Pegasus invites Phantom Lord to its yearly summer festival.

Blue Pegasus had successfully repelled Grimoire Heart's attack, but even with Phantom Lord's help, they were unable to save the lives of their masters, the brothers Lance and Cesare. On his deathbed, Lance spoke to the Blue Pegasus members around his deathbead, asking them to hold their yearly festival with Phantom Lord, in honour os Cesare's aid and his sacrifice. This festival would ultimately end the hostilities between both guilds.

X785, October 17th: Noel reveals Icarus' identity to Aguero, and arranges a meeting between the two.

Enticed as a double agent for Grimoire Heart by Icarus, Noel eventually chooses to side with the Lamia Scale, revealing this name to Aguero, who forgives him in exchange for him setting up a meeting between himself and Icarus. The two fight, and Icarus comes out triumphant. However, the injuries sustained in this battle would put Icarus out of action for months while he recovered.

X786

X786, January 26th: After sending out Theseus to kill the Master of Fairy Tail, Grimoire Heart attacks the Capital.

After Icarus killed the guildmasters of Phantom Lord, Blue Pegasus and Lamia Scale and sustained serious injuries in these battles, Theseus was sent to finish off the last of of his opponents, Cecilia, the Master of Fairy Tail. The moment she fell, Grimoire Heart mustered his forces, and the Ark made a move on Crocus to attack the King.

X786, February 3rd: Rune Knights team up with members of Fairy Tail and Lamia Scale to defend the Castle.

At the Castle, Christian Zane and Kasumi Kiseki of Fairy Tail, Maarshalk Raion and Daiko Flayme of Lamia Scale, and Xandra Queen of the Rune Knights, faced off against Grimoire Heart's Odin. Neither party was able to claim victory.

X786, February 3rd: In the middle of the battle for Crocus, one lone member of Phantom Lord rampages against both sides.

At the Streets of Crocus, another battle rages on with Akira, Hatsuharu and Asura of the Rune Knights teaming up with Liana of Blue Pegasus. Though they successfully fight off the members of Grimoire Heart, one mysterious masked member of Phantom Lord rampages against either of the two sides, content with fighting both off.

X786, February 3rd: The defenders face off against Nastasya of Grimoire Heart.

In another side of Crocus, Esperia and Baron of Blue Pegasus team up with Fiametta and Kee of the Rune Knights and Sage of Fairy Tail, to face off against Nastasya of Grimoire Heart. The defenders manage to soundly defeat the invisible invader before she successfully snuck past.

X786, February 3rd:
With the walls of Crocus damaged, the defenders fight to guard them before reinforcements can invade.

Damaged after the first blast of the Etherion Cannon, the walls of Crocus can no longer contain the hordes of reinforcements pouring in. Many members of Light Guilds and Rune Knights rush to its defense.

X786, February 3rd: Alisa, Arisa and Konstantin face off against Zade inside Mercurius.

As the battle raged on outside, it soon reached the interior of Mercurius, where one of the strongest members of Grimoire Heart, Zade, faces off against some of the highest ranked mages in the country. Alisa of Blue Pegasus, Arisa of Lamia Scale and Konstantin of the Holy Knights. The battle raged on for a while, but was cut short by the proclamation of Grimoire Heart's victory. Knowing both sides would have been allies had the light mages known the truth, Zade lowered his sword and left them to hear about it alongside the rest of the country.

X786, February 3rd: Crowley reminisces on his life, the story of Arthurias Davere di Fioria as he approaches the palace.

Born to the King's younger brother, Augustus, neither the man or Arthurias himself had any ambitions to rule... But as King Zantedeschia sought the path of war, enabling the corrupt nobility to buy out their support, it put him at odds with his younger brother, who wished for an end to war. The younger brother lived by the principle of noblesse oblige, a code of honour which said nobles should conduct themselves nobly, and use their status for the betterment of society. As these two philosophies clashed, the paranoid King offered the asassination of his younger brother and his family. But little did he know the younger brother survived, and gathered followers to fight the growing corruption. Under Zantedeschia, nobles were allowed privileges far beyond anything they'd ever held in modern times, including being allowed to own slaves. And now, at the palace gates... A reckoning was upon them.

X786, February 3rd: Arthurias kills King Zantedeschia, avenging the death of his family.

Grimoire heart's leaders advance towards the throne room, still protected by layers upon layers of magical bindings. Theseus negates them all, while Icarus defeats the guards waiting inside. Desperate, King Zantedeschia pulls out a gun on his nephew and fires, only for the damage to be magically reflected back to his own body, a testament to Arthurias' powerful magic. As Arthurias takes the throne, the surviving Royal Guards surrender to his display of power.

X786, February 3rd: Arthurias disbands Grimoire heart and proclaims himself King of Fiore.

After killing his uncle, the usurper Zantedeschia, and proclaiming himself King of Fiore, Arthurias gives his very first speech: His vision for the country, a promise to the people, and a threat to nobles who would oppose him. Declaring a new era without slavery or discrimination, he commands slave owners to release their slaves or be executed by Zade, and forbids any prejucide against citizens for their race. Freed slaves become citizens with full rights. Additionally, he strips any claims his cousins might have, changing Fiore to an elective monarchy, with his yet unnamed successor already chosen.

X786, March 3rd: With Arthurias now crowned King of Fiore, the Demon he contracted with collects his due.

To enact his ideals, Arthurias had needed power. And a portion of it he gained through a deal with the Demon Edian. The demon posessed him to ensure the deal was carried out, but rather than his soul, he wanted a favour. In return for the eye which granted him power, Edian wanted Arthurias to unshackle the gates to the Abyss, which had been sealed generations ago. The seal laid hidden deep within Mercurius, could only be opened by the bloodline of Fiore's Royal Family. The demon threatened him, revealing that he could use the very eye he'd given Arthurias to control his body and wreak havok on the world. Under duress, King Arthurias rose from his throne and made way to the seal...

X786, March 3rd: Arthurias refuses his end of the bargain and the Demon Edian forces him First Seal to the Abyss.

Arthurias had no intention of fulfilling his end of the bargain. Though his blood was the key to unlocked the seals, he followed the demon's instructions only short of undoing the seal between dimensions, hoping to destroy the very lock and keep it safe forever. The demon takes control of Arthurias, however, and only barely manages to undo the First Seal before being stabbed in the back by Icarus, opting to escape rather than dying alongside the mortally wounded emperor. With his last breath, he issues his final command, to save the citizens of Crocus from the first Abyssal rift that would soon open.

X786, March 3rd: Icarus crashes the Ark into the Abyssal rift, and perishes in a blaze of glory.

The shortest lived King of Fiore, Icarus fulfils his final order as the Sword of King Arthurias. To save Crocus from the first Demonic Rift. Slaying demons by the hundreds with Damocles and the Etherion Cannon installed in the Ark, in the end his has no choice but to fly the ship into the rift, killing all the invading demons in a titanic explosion high in the sky, his heroic death witnessed by every citizen still in the city.

X786, May 10th: The Guildmasters of Fairy Tail, Blue Pegasus, Lamia Scale and Phantom Lord walk into a bar.

A once in a lifetime meeting happened in the middle of the Orchidia Flower Festival, in the Swineherd Pub of all places. Adriana and Dante engage in a rather up close and personal drinking contest, and are soon joined by Shahrbaraz and Belladonna from Lamia Scale and Blue Pegasus respectively.

X786, May 14th: Freshly appointed King's Sword Zade meets Alisa and Arisa after the battle for Crocus.

Once enemies fighting for the future of the Country inside Mercurius, Zade encounters Arisa and Alisa once again, this time outside of battle, in the middle of Orchidia's flower festival. He refrains from divulging any news about Arthurias' passing, or the threat of demons looming on the horizon, and simply shares the festivities with former foes.

Midseason Interlude: The dust settles after the death of King Arthurias.

Following the death of Arthurias and the opening of the Abyssal rifts, Fiore is left weakened. Athurias' chosen successor, a young, 22 year old noble from Hargeon named Reign, takes the throne, supported by the King's Sword and Shield. His benevolence earns him the support of the populace, while his noble background earns him the begrudging loyalty of the aristocrats. He continues to enforce Arthurias' policy of zero tolerace of slavery, so that nobody will ever be owned by another. The opening of the rifts increases the Church's power and influence, enough that they'd propose imposing Holy Law, effectively turning the country into a theocracy ruled by Fiore's Divine.

X787

X787, January 6th: For the first time in years, a major rift to the Abyss opens in Orchidia, and the demonic horde spews forth.

This day has been forever seared into the memories of those who witnessed the horror and depravity of the demonic hordes, as the day a large demonic rift opened up in Orchidia. Countless people lost their lives, and those who witnessed this hell on earth would forever be marked by the experience. Through the efforts of countless mages, the rift was eventually sealed, but many people lost their lives.

X787, January 20th: The Demonic invasions spread to Baska.

Shortly afterwards, the demonic rifts spread to the west of Fiore, where a second rift opened up. This time, the defenders already knew they could triumph against their foes and close the rifts, and far fewer hands were needed to vanquish the horde.

X787, February 3rd: Nerva's leaves the Holy Knights and founds his Inquisition.

Dissatisfied with the Holy Knight's response to the horrors of the Demonic Invasions, Nerva breaks away from the Knights with a few of his most loyal men, founding the organization that would become known as Nerva's Inquisiton, throwing off the yoke of supernatural forces. To live and die for men rather Angels.

X787, February 23rd: The Demonic invasions reach Astera.

The war would get worse before it got better as the demonic invaders pressed their numbers in the west, turning their attentions to the undefended city of Astera. As the divisions grew between the Holy Knights and a radical faction lead by the one known as Nerva, Earthland's unity weakened. Some people were never found, forever lost into the bowels of the abyss, while others - such as Alisa who was wrenched from the hands of her lover, Sofia - would only return many months later.

X787, March 30th: With the Demonic invasions in full swing, Nerva begins his crusade.

Threatening to decimate an entire village due to the presence of three demons in their midst, Nerva's ruthlessness spurs Rune Knights and Holy Knights alike into action, determined to hunt down the demons and prevent the needless loss of live. Konstantin vanquished one of the demons alone, while Judina and Fujaku defeated another one of them.

X787, June 17th: Nerva attempts to wipe out a settlement to prevent demons from emerging.

Few beings on Earthland could ever hope to face the unbridled might of a Demon Lord... Nerva knew this, but his solution appalled his companion Aurelio, known as the Seraphim Nathael many centuries ago. Unable to bear the cruelty of the man he once called his brother, Aurelio smote Nerva, yet failed. As a now youthful Nerva retaliated and slew Aurelio, the rogue Seraphim's death brought his brethren from the Lucent back to Earthland, hoping to reclaim the Uldyssian, an ancient artifact sought after by Angels of Demons for its ability to create worlds.

X787, June 1st: Spymaster Adragna meets Captain Commander Shimada to discuss Nerva and his inquisition.

Nerva's true intentions continue to puzzle and worry those in power, who wonder what the man who renounced Illumin should do if he succeeds in his crusade against the demons. The sheer amount of collateral damage would have been worrying enough, but due to the Demonic invasions, none of the country's power wishes to move against him. Spymaster seeks somebody who could assist her in learning the information they lack.

X787, June 2nd: Nagi and Ishtar, senior members of Phantom Lord, meet up to await Dante.

With the guild weakend and without a master since Cesare's death, two of its senior members gather after their respective journeys and meet up in the Sieghart mountains, summoned by Dante. Nagi opts to leave, uninterested in serving a new Guildmaster, while Ishtar stays behind.

X787, June 13th: Dante returns to what remains of Phantom Lord and formally dissolves the Guild.

As the man who once called both Lance and Cesare - masters of Blue Pegasus and Phantom Lord - his brothers, Dante returns to find both of them dead. As Blue Pegasus remains alive and well, he takes up the mantle of Master of Phantom Lord, and dissolves the famous dark guild, laying the legendary guild to rest while letting its remaining members set off and find their own path.

X787, June 13th: Having left Phantom Lord and headed East, Nagi notices his mark.

Having opted to depart the guild, former Phantom Lord notices his Phantom Lord mark has been magically removed. Alerted, he opts to regroup with former Phantom Ishtar, knowing no one person can face the coming darkness alone.

X787, July 10th: The Necromancer Nerach makes his move.

The war between Earthland, the Lucent and the Abyss provides plenty of opportunities for forces unaffiliated with either, such as a powerful Necromancer taking the opportunity to stake his claim, advancing his ambitions while not enough people can spare the focus to answer his army of undead.

X787, July 20th: Nerva rallies his troops against the Seraphim.

Realizing the Seraphim were no friendlier to Earthland than the Demons, Nerva rallies his forces to take a stand against the otherwordly enemies who'd treat Earthland as their plaything. Steeling their resolve, they march into war until the land is purged from their influence.

X787, July 20th: The Seraphim Ildriel and Gabriel discuss the Uldyssian and their rogue brethren Nathael.

Realizing the rogue Seraphim Nathael has perished at the hands of Nerva, his returned Ildriel and Gabriel also realize the Uldyssian they seek must still be somewhere in Earthland. They decide to call upon the Nephilim and the Church to aid in their cause. At the same time, Gabriel and Michael move to recruit new allies from this realm, for any who stand against them will be erased alongside the demons.

X787, August 26th: Now facing the Seraphim host of the Lucent as their enemies, Earthland turns to the Nine heroes of old for an answer.

Centuries ago, the combined might of Nine Heroes from different countries was said to have vanquished the Seraphim from Earthland, slaying the Archangel Izrael when they came to earth to find the Uldyssian hidden by Nathael. Now staring down the blades of the Seraphim once more, Kinbg Reign beseeched the heroes of Fiore to travel the land in search of these relics.

X787, September 8th: Hector and Ingrid head to Seven to find Heracles' Club.

X788

X788, January 1st: The freshly inaugurated King Reign throws a Grand Ball for any who'd like to attend.

Recently crowned in the fallout of Arthurias and Icarus' deaths and the end of the Demonic Invasions, King Reign throws a Grand Ball in Crocus, open for all who'd wish to attend. The ball comes as a rare opportunity for the people to mingle with the Country's nobility, for many of the powerful people in the country to meet one another in the Capital where they'd otherwise seldom set foot in.

Midseason Interlude: As the aftermath of the Demonic Invasions settles in, the country undergoes a great change.

Though Fiorians could finally breathe a sigh of relief, the Demonic Invasions caused a great upheaval in the land. Much of the Rune Knights and Holy Knights splintered off to form Nerva's Inquisition, their hands forever sullied with the blood ofm the many people killed. Though they went down in history as heroes, the people would remember the massacres for years to come. The sealing of the gates to alternate universes severly crippled the church alongside the loss of its Holy Knights, paving the way for cults to thrive right under their noses... And as for the country itself... The crippling loss of manpower forced the government to surrender their authority beyond Crocus and Era, leaving lawlessness in their wake, allowing the Guilds to take their place. Yet the Guilds themselves stood devastated by the invasions and the loss of people's faith in their power: Most never recovered, paving way for new Guilds to take their place.

X789

X789, March 13th: Invigorated explorers flock to Zagan's Dungeon, hidden in Worth Woodsea.

After a more than decades long hiatus, the Grand Magic Games once again become the talk of the whole country. Freshly recovering from the fallout of the great change, many of the freshly formed guilds eagerly ache for a chance to prove their might in this new Fiore, while the few surviving Guilds of old fight with all their might to make their survival known. After many bitterly fought battles, the Games end with a draw between two of the new up and coming guilds, Advent World and Daeva Eye.

X789, June 6th: Invigorated explorers flock to Zagan's Dungeon, hidden in Worth Woodsea.

Long rumoured to hold plentiful, mysterious secrets, Zagan's Dungeon has long held an alluring air of mystery, irresistible to adventurers all across the world. Yet never had anybody gotten as close to unlocking the treasures concealed within. This time around, an unexpected surge of interest in the unfathomable dungeon would unearth the dungeon's eerie purpose, and the evil it had been meant to seal, its names long erased from the anals of history. The Nightmare Dragon Nacht, and his herald, the demon Zagan.

X789, July 23rd: The triumphant exporers of Zagan's dungeon unwittingly release a great evil.

Still jubilant over their conquest of Zagan's dungeon, the victorious raiders soon find their elation crushed by the appearance of the Dragon Lanzerossa, warning them of the great evil they'd unleased. As if on queue, the Demon Zagan appears, free from his shackles, escorted by former members of Fairy Tail who'd ultimately side with the demon, heralding the founding of Eternal Nightmare. With no other choice, the Dragon agrees to muster her allies and teach any willing humans their signature magic, in hopes finding new allies.

X789, July 29th: In the wake of Finn's disappearance, his successor Kenzo merges Advent World into Blue Pegasus.

The two Masters had never formally met, but their meeting had been arranged by Noel, Kenzo Valens's second in command, and Alisa Vollan's wife Sofia. Joined in mourning of a close friend, though neither of the two had seen it themselves, they knew in their hearts that Finn had perished. Reminiscing over their memories of him and renewing their vows to bring vengeance upon his killer, Advent World returns to Blue Pegasus, where Finn first begun his journey years.

X789, August 5th: The Nachtian Dragons begin their war of conquest.

Like a declaration of war, the Flame Dragon Flamarea attacks Astera, burning hundreds of people and razing down a sizeable portion of the cityscape before flying off to reunite with her brethren, heralding the destruction that would soon visit Earthland once more.

X789, August 6th: Lanzerossa begins her search for her allies, scattered across the globe.

The release of Zagan and the looming threat of Nacht started bringing all the Dragons out of hiding, including those who'd give their lives to stand against him. Lanzerossa meets Snowlarce, the Elysian Dragon, and together they set off in search of however many of their allies yet live.

X789, August 6th: Kazimir inherits the position of Fairy Tail Guild Master.

As Dragons roam Earthland once more, Fairy Tail's Guild Master reveals her part in the Wizard Saint Kazimir's past, passing on the title of Guild Master to him. As a result, Phoenix Feather's remaining members join Fairy Tail alongside their master, bringing both guilds together as one.

X789, August 16th: The Allied Dragons reunite with yet another one of them, Adriana.

As the mortals train their own magics, the Allied Dragons rally their forces, determined to do their part instead of simply entrusting everything to mortals and their freshly learned Dragon Slayer Magic. Lanzerossa and Snowlarce, meet up with Adriana, the former member of Fairy Tail who finally revealed her origins, after having left her beloved guild in good hands.

X789, October 14th: Darkness Dragon Egiros attacks Magnolia, fighting to a stalemate.

The war begins at last... Fitting that the first blow would be dealt by a Dragon sharing the same choice of element as their master, attacking the very town whose Guild's Rogue members had pledged themselves to releasing him. In many ways, this attack was seen as a renewed severing of Eternal Nightmare's bonds with their former Guild, even if the Dark Guild member's themselves wouldn't have heard about it until later. The battle was fought to a standstill, without a deciding victor, heralding the beginning of a war that would rage on for years.

X789, October 14th: The fire Dragon Bhrang attacks the Worth Woodsea.

Though not as powerful as some of the older, more powerful dragons allied to Nacht, the Fire Dragon Bhrang still posed a challenge few mortals could have hoped to see and lived to tell the tale. But more than that, the combined efforts of Victor, Lorelei and Azure successfully vanquished the beast, slaying the Dragon and putting an end to his rampage.

X790

X790, March 4th: The flame Dragon Flamarea attacks the city of Magnolia.

One of the earliest Draconic invaders to be sighted since the opening of Zagan's dungeon, the Dragon Famarea attacked Magnolia. Despite the best efforts of three mages interceding to stop her, they were merely able to drive her off. To this day, the dragoness has yet to be sighted yet again.

X790, April 27th: Harald Saschenwald, King of Bosco, dies without a clear successor and five strong heirs.

Wilhelm the Conqueror, Cassia the Dauntless, Brunhild the Divine, Reiner the Bastard and Hildegard the Beastmaster. Five heirs to the Boscosi throne, each with an equal amount of support. Their names became familiar in the coming days, as Bosco remained leaderless for months, on the brink of civil war. Soon enough, foreign supporters would start flocking to each of the heirs, drawn by their respective ideals and shared vision for the future of Bosco.

X790, May 31st: Wilhelm the Conqueror is defeated and nearly killed in the Battle of Muhictlan.

As a fierce nationalist often identified with the the traditional Boscosi ideals of expansion through war, Wilhelm struggled to garner much support from Foreigners like his siblings did. Absent this vital support, he grew vulnerable as he lead his army through battle against the rebellion, and suffered a crushing defeat at the hands of Mzuma, who gained newfound prominence among the Stellans.

X790, June 19th: The Stellan Rebel Mzuma makes a bold move.

With the Boscosi preoccupied by their succession war, Stellan Rebel leader Mzuma takes the opportunity to launch a crippling counter attack, obliterating most of the forces in Bosco while striking at the country's heartland, burning several cities to cinders. Thousands died in a matter of moments. This declaration spurred the various Stellan leaders, driving many to seek another end to this bloody war even if it meant cooperating with a sympathetic successor.
