[Sting Eucliffe, Nineteen year old Mage, is doodling in his journal. Things like 'Natsu vs Sting; the rematch!' and 'What Would Natsu Do?' are written along with some drawings of dragons and cats. Under one of the dragons the word 'dad' is written. After a moment he holds it and speaks into it, feeling stupid]

Okay, so I can talk through this thing through people, right?

I need to get off this damn island so I can find that magical ruby. I'm not a sailor at all. I get motion sickness from slow moving chariots because of my magic. But I'm a damn good mage and fighter on land or on an animal's back. Help me out and I'll help you out.

More like mercenaries? People hire us to get rid of monsters, protection, retrieval of stolen objects, and rescue missions. No assassinations or coups though

[Voice]

[fierybluebird]

Sounds like a pirate crew... except for the lack of assassinations and coups eh. Although it depends. Are there any guilds who do that?

[Voice]

[whitedragon_abs]

Yeah, Dark Guilds. Guilds not sanctioned by the Magic Council.

[Voice]

[fierybluebird]

What's a Magic Council? Other than legal authority, that much I could infer.

[Voice]

[whitedragon_abs]

Well, they're the top dogs in Magic, more or less.

Guilds operate all around the continent, but aren't attached to any kingdom. So the Magic Council is the ruling body of the guilds. They're the ones people go to with complaints 'bout the guilds, like if a guild causes too much destruction on a job or something.

They also have their own knights and stuff, and prisons. [pauses] Used to be they were elected from mages who left guilds, but, uh, now the Ten Wizard Saints, aka the ten most powerful and good mages out there, make up the council, since the last council was assassinated by demons.

[fierybluebird]

Understood...

I think.

Do demons regularly wreak havoc in your world?

[Voice]

[whitedragon_abs]

No. The last time was four hundred years ago.

Lots of wars happened four hundred years ago, and it was because of the Black Mage Zeref.

[Voice]

[fierybluebird]

Oh....

I think he was here for a bit, actually.

Maybe it was just a coincidence, but I don't think Zeref is a common name.

[Voice]

[whitedragon_abs]

...

I... uh, hope it was.

Because, he's bad news.

[Voice]

[fierybluebird]

Eh, really? He seemed pretty quiet...

[Voice]

[whitedragon_abs]

You know what they say about the quiet ones!

He's the one who made all the demons that plagued our world!

[Voice]

[fierybluebird]

Ah that's true...

He made them?

[Voice]

[whitedragon_abs]

Using the forbidden art of living magic. I went head to head with those things, and I barely escaped with my life.

[Voice]

[fierybluebird]

Forbidden living magic...

[Rapidly taps his quill's feather side against the journal repeatedly.]

What is...

A demon like, exactly?

Re: [Voice]

[whitedragon_abs]

Well, there are two types. Natural and Etherious. Natural demons tend to be peaceful and keep to themselves.

Etherious Demons were the ones made by Zeref. They're destructive monsters who love causing chaos and hate humans.

[Voice]

[fierybluebird]

Why? Like... What is the point of that?

[Voice]

[whitedragon_abs]

Apparently to kill him according to one demon.
