Fairy Tail IC

Timeskip Until 8:00PM
Once the battles finished things calmed down a bit, Lucian had long since stopped sending any further attack squads. He had made his point regardless of losing people. He had the men, he had the tactics, and he had essentially scrambled the Guilds' cohesion. He may of ultimately lost but in the long run whole sections of towns, and even whole towns, lie in ruin at his hand. Rumors were slowly starting to spread of the Guilds possibly not being able to do their task and protect those that couldn't protect themselves from Grimoire Heart. The entirety of the magical world, not just Fiore, was slowly being thrown into chaos once the news of Era's destruction had spread.

As it stood now everyone was either resting or recuperating from injury or planning the assault. It was time from Grimoire Heart to die, and as soon as possible lest everything turn to a state of ruin.

??? - Pillar of Earthland, Location Unknown
Six Year Reversion Time-Loop
An old, almost ancient, man stood in front of a giant lacrima screen in an unknown location in Earthland. He studied everything that was going on curiously, the screen having hundreds if not thousands of other screens detailing important events across the globe. Things were devolving at an alarming rate with the attack on Crocus in Fiore and the destruction of the magic council. The man heaved a shaky breath as a wrinkled hand stroked his long grey beard inquisitively. It was only a matter of time until this world was lost it would seem...at-least...this version of it. Already he foresaw the Alvarez Empire overtaking the entirety of the magical world and subjugating anyone that didn't conform to them. In essence...the end of Earthland as it was now.

He foresaw only one way to fix things, one way to give everyone a fighting chance. It may escalate the invasion, it might not, what would happen he wasn't quite sure. He cast his gaze upon the major Light Guilds of the world and their members as well as powerful mages that weren't yet affiliated with anyone. Those would be the bastions of Earthland. It was up to them to stop the Empire, stop everything from burning to the ground. Heaving another shaky sigh he pushed himself from his seat and grabbed a gnarled cane more akin to a fallen tree-branch than anything, giving the screen a small smile.

"Yes..perfect.." He muttered to himself, happy with his plan. Turning slowly he walked across the white floors of his massive home and down the hall slowly, the soft thuds of his cane hitting the ground as he walked. Before long he was in a massive chamber, almost pitch white in color with a set of stairs leading to a pedestal. Once before he entered this room, once before he saved Earthland. Now he would do it again, and quite possibly in the future, until someone came around to replace him. Such was the life of a Guardian of Magic. His powers weren't absolute, nor did they always particularly help things...but if there was a chance it was his task to provide aid even if the help was minuscule.

He ascended the stairs and came to a stop in the middle of the pedestal, with a groan and the sound of his creaking bones being near audible he sat cross legged, laying his cane beside him. His task and plan? Send the mages here to an alternate past before the events that spurred the Empire into attacking happened, hopefully give them more time to prepare, quite possibly let them thwart the invasion before it even begins. A taxing task, though one that must be done. If they didn't succeed...all of Earthland could very well belong to Alvaraz. He closed his eyes and clasped his hands together, slowly bowing his head as he started chanting in low mumbles.

The room would begin lighting up by means of ancient symbols carved into the walls slowly filling in with a deep blue light. The magic he was performing was ancient, forbidden, and generally still only known by a few including himself. The room, the surrounding area, and soon all of Earthland would begin to shake. Those he was targetting specifically would be engulfed in the same blue light the symbols now held, a slight tugging sensation being felt on their mind as if they were being gently pulled somewhere telepathically.

The feeling would escalate further and further, soon each target being able to hear speaking in their minds. 'Go back and right this wrong..' would be the only phrase they would hear before being shunted back into the past, their bodies reverting back to what they once were six long years ago. Memories possibly being toyed with, changed around, or even becoming non-existent. Most would remember, some likely would not, the events that happened over the years. An unfortunate side effect...families would be torn apart. Though...luckily children would merely cease to exist rather than have to be put through the coming hell in this timeline. A tragedy, surely...but one the old man couldn't prevent.

Unfortunately, he couldn't control where in Fiore they would end up exactly. Though he tried to target them as close to each of their home guilds or a major city as best he could, even still he knew there was a chance some would be scattered. "Hourglass of Time: Reversal." He uttered. Soon, the spell was complete, the man collapsing onto the ground. Unconscious, utterly exhausted, but alive. It was now up to everyone to determine the fate of Fiore, and ultimately Earthland itself.

The Earthland they would wake up in would have no knowledge of the events of the past six years, Grimoire Heart would be long dead at the hands of Maya Morne and it's members scattered about. As of now, everything was entirely peaceful for once. Save for your normal monster attacks and bandit raids of course. Life in Fiore was once again peaceful as it was a long time ago.
