Job Description: Eclipse Corona is a dark guild that has been cropping up all around Earthland for ages. Up until now, their various appearances were about as common as an actual eclipse and their reigns came and went nearly as quickly, but these days have seen a dramatic rise in strength and recuperation time. The guild itself seeks to empower and embolden dark mages everywhere. The deep pockets of evil supporters are endless, so their access and distribution of resources make even the weakest dark mage into a noteworthy problem in a short amount of time, but that’s not the worst of it. Though it’s never been seen by an outsider, rumor has it that there is a magical item the guild worships, a stone that possesses no light within it yet radiates as if it is the source.  It amplifies any mage’s power that basks in its glow, and within days the guild can have an army of high-level mages with nothing good in mind for the inhabitants of Earthland.

No matter the location, the ultimate goal always seems to be the same. They wish to burrow to the center of the world and implant the Corona Crystal they worship at the core. According to their beliefs, this will eradicate mana and plunge the surface of Earthland into darkness while allowing those faithful to its light to continue to burn bright. They will become gods under the newly ascended cosmic deity formerly trapped in their crystal.

Your job as a Dies Irae mage is to follow the information trail until you locate their new dig site, eliminating any dark mages in your path. They have already amassed a sizeable army of Corona Blessed mages to keep anyone who may try to stop them far away from the tunnel being dug. It’s imperative they all be wiped out to try and stop yet another coming of Corona Eclipse in the future, or else Earthland may never be safe.

☩ Enemies: Corona Blessed Army☩ Enemy Rank: Normal☩ Enemy Stats: These make up the bulk of the army, and are the equivalent of S rank mages. How big you wish the army to be is up to you, as well as what magic they have. Just know they will strategize you in bulk. They fight intelligently and will absolutely not let you get by them without taking their lives.☩ Enemies: Eclipse Excavators☩ Enemy Rank: Strong☩ Enemy Stats: Eclipse Excavators use strange magic to burrow into the ground in hopes of reaching the planet’s core, but they aren’t any less zealous or capable of defending their cause and well as their progress. If they have spells that can blast through the hardest and hottest layers below the surface, they can certainly put up a significant fight, especially since there are 15 of them and they are equal to S rank mages.☩ Enemies: Cult Priestess☩ Enemy Rank: Boss☩ Enemy Stats: This is an H+ rank mage, currently in charge of the Corona Crystal. She will be in a structure suspended over the tunnel being dug so progress can be monitored as well as having the best seat in the house for dropping down to put the Corona Crystal into the core. She has magic both as hot and bright as the sun and dark and cold as a black hole. Prolonged exposure to the item has bestowed a terrible strength on her, as well as convinced her that the crystal is speaking to her. No matter how delusional she is, having it in her possession makes her immune to status effects. Exact spells are up to you.

Reward: 100yr exp, 200,000 jewel from Helga in payroll, and some fame as a guild destroyer and world saver. Too bad that Corona Crystal disappeared, though.
