We can add somethings, remove everything, or tweak things here and there. This is just something I had rolling around in my head.

[i]Just a disclaimer, I enjoyed putting this together. It was fun so don't feel bad about completely rejecting it.[/i]

[hider=ALLLLLOT][list][*] - [b]First Arc.[/b] So I think it'd be awesome to start the RP off a week or so after that year's GMG. It would establish a timestamp that will show up near the end of this list. I'd personally like to see us lose this GMG, giving us a more humane rival in the RP. An opposing Guild who beat us with sheer overwhelming skill.
[list][*]- Name: The Unkindled 
[*] -Top Wizard: [url=https://i.imgur.com/6ro0Olz.jpg]The Ashen One, [i]Plyr[/i][/url] (perhaps a Wizard Saint, This motif will come together near the end.)
[*] - This could be our starting off point. Our introduction to the Dark Guild, Titan's Fist. Though I'm reminded that I'm constantly seeing this created when RPing Fairy Tail. Greek motifs and especially the story of Titans. Now I've been playing a lot of Dark Souls recently and I'd love to use a motif about it in the RP. Of course this can all be put to a vote. If so the Guild can be named the Abyss Chasers. A low-ranking guild in the hidden alliance known simply as [i]Dark Souls[/i]. Anyhow, the Abyss Chasers are searching for a way to create the *[i]Jewel of Manus[/i] by sacrificing whole villages. Fairy Tail receives the request to stop them but a tad too late. The Jewel is created but to ease the mind of young girl who requested it, they see it through.[/list]
[*] - [b]Second Arc.[/b] As for this mysterious Dark Mage that's rising to power, creating sub-plots and leading our heroes astray from the main goal, he could be some reincarnation of a mage that came even before Zeref. One that used forbidden Abyss Magic, his name: Manus, of course. I have two different images for this person. Of course we could shop around too lol. [url=https://i.imgur.com/GeExZ9d.jpg?1]here[/url] and [url=https://i.imgur.com/0ksR1Wd.jpg]here[/url]. This Arc can more or less a bonding one with a lighter mood until the end where we introduce the next Dark Guild. 
[*] - [b]Third Arc.[/b] This would naturally lead to the Edolas Arc. With Manus' Jewel stirring his ancient spirit and causing its reincarnation. The [url=https://i.imgur.com/XEsaXgT.jpg]Holder[/url] Elder One reaches across time-space and dimensions in order to complete his duty of awakening the [url=https://i.imgur.com/BbrwtVY.jpg]Caster[/url] and [url=https://i.imgur.com/IXScvFA.jpg]Ancient[/url] Elder Ones. However to leave Edolas would mean to destroy its anchor to reality. Incapable of doing so he leaves the job to those he summoned to Edolas, the band of Fairy Tail wizards who had recovered the jewel. Of course we'll encounter trouble there involving our Holder Elder One. It will lend us a weapon of sorts, a key to unlock the Caster's realm.  
[*] - [b]Fourth Arc.[/b] Once returned due to the strength of the Holder Elder One, they would take reprieve while deciphering the riddles that would lead them to the Caster and Ancient Elder Ones. While doing this we have our run in with the Dark Guild using the Curse of Cards spell. They are an upcoming yet powerful guild hoping to impressed the secreted Dark Souls alliance. We can learn of their existence here. From stopping their evil machinations with a bit of trouble, for surely their stronger than the Abyss Chasers. After we're done, we return to the guild to learn the first riddle is complete. We now know where the Caster Elder One is. A lighter Arc. 
[*] - [b]Fifth Arc. [/b] This is where the spy comes in. A spy from the Dark Souls alliance. One from the Dark Guild called, The Four Lords. I'm not sure how to end this but I think it'd be best if it enlightens Fairy Tail on Manus a bit. Perhaps the spy fears his name greatly, so much that his mind-breaks or something. 
[*] - [b]Sixth Arc. [/b] The group searches for the Caster Elder One but thanks to the spy they end up in a war against The Four Lords Guild. Its here that we learn that Manus came before Zeref, that he was responsible for Black Wizard's curse, as the Wizard had touched the Abyss unbidden. The Four Lords is shown to be a Guild of incomprehensible power; a guild of just four mages. Mages capable of reshaping the face of Earthland. Gwyn, Izalith, Nito, and Pygmy. They are the second strongest in the alliance. Second only to the guild: Dark Souls. However it goes, if we win we encounter the Caster Elder One who stands firm that he will not intervene with Manus. That the best he could do was hold the coming Abyss indefinitely, as was his duty. In the end he warns not to approach the Ancient Elder One, for he was more likely to destroy them then help. 
[*] - [b]Seventh Arc.[/b] This could be when the S-Class trials take place. 
[*] - [b]Eight Arc.[/b] The GMG is nearing and from these trials we're all phenomenally stronger. We wipe the floor with all the competition except The Unkindled. They prove just as hard as before but we're holding our on. Eventually we win the one thing that would allow use entry into the Ancient Elder One's domain. A inept fragment of [url=http://fairytail.wikia.com/wiki/Space_Between_Time]The Space Between Time[/url], thought drained of its magic it needed only the combined jump start of several powerful wizards to exert its remaining force. There the group encounters the Ancient Elder One, who at first supremely stomps them before being moved by their grit and deciding to train them. For though his duty was to defeat Manus, he had promised to never kill a human. Which puts him at an odds against a reincarnated Manus. 
[*][b]Ninth Arc.[/b] A final battle against Manus. We learn he has consumed Edolas in the Abyss, hoping to find the Holder Elder One in order to destroy the Caster and Ancient Elder One. He returns to Earthland and decides instead to rule, consuming all in the Abyss except Fairy Tail, for they were the only ones he deemed worthy enough to remain in his world. For they were interesting beings. We learn Manus' greatest secret.
