Hmmm why do I feel like Belator's wife might've been the mage :thonk: That or she's almost certainly dead...
In any case, it's wild it took whatever got sucked into this tornado-like thing 7 years to drop back to earth :worry:

So Gheer went from thug to beating a renowned Bureau officer - or so it seems. I'd assume Belator had to hand in his tools when retiring, so naturally, he'd be at a disadvantage...

It's good backstory but the way author put the backstory is kinda jarring. idk maybe that's just me

This chapter leaves me with so many questions.

First of all, those bodies were floating for seven years in the sky... As far as I am aware, mages need to consciously use their powers. I feel like this is evidence for the "magic tool testing" theory, but why would the Bureau test such a magic tool in the middle of a town? As a result, I think this is more supportive of the "magic outburst" theory, where a mage lost control of their powers, leaving behind residue magic which lasted a while.

Also, levitation magic makes me think of Miramira's Mevijilara (sinking magic). Are the two related by any chance?

Moreover, will we get an explanation as to why Raloud's memories are stored in his necklace, which probably isn't even his? The memories of the flashback all occurred after Raloud already had that necklace too, so was it on recording mode or something? Out of all the magic in the series thus far, Raloud's necklace is an anomaly: it points to him for some reason, it stores his memories, but it isn't even his wand.

I just thought of a theory about Gheer. What if the landslide was caused by a Quovelta mage with Earth magic, who rescued Gheer after the fall because they thought he was a mage captured by Belator? Knowing Gheer, he would probably pretend to be a mage just to sell them out to the Bureau later. Something probably happened to said Earth mage later, by which Gheer got his magic tool. This theory makes sense to me because Gheer is aware of the existence of Quovelta.

Lastly, family seems to be becoming a main theme of this series.
