Rita found herself boredly dangling from the railing of the second floor in the guild hall. She had slung herself over the railing looking down at her guild mates feeling a bit curious. The freshly recruited mage took some time and let her eyes stalk around the hall. She hadn't been around Fairy Tail long enough to understand or get to know anyone all that great. Rita wondered if there was something she didn't know maybe some big secret.
As if on cue the words prickled her ears
"Lumen Histoire." Someone among the fairies below her had drawn her attention in with that strange phrase. Rita looked around trying to find who's words they were so she could eavesdrop a little bit. She looked about at everyone buzzing around the guild hall below, she was only able to pick up a few other words from the same voice among all the caring on
"Debatable, Fairy Tail's true darkness or light?" Rita sonared around leaning over the railing more to catch the rest of the words.
"The guilds greatest secret..."After that she had lost track of the conversation among the sound of shattering beer mugs and cheering. Rita let out an exhausted sigh slumping down against the banister beside the steps. She couldn't stop thinking about that conversation.
"What could this Lumen Histore be?" Rita wondered to herself. She drew out a notebook flipping to a page and headed the page with the words
'Lumen Histore'. Curious, Rita chewed on her pencil as she re-listened to the conversation in her head.
"Darkness or light...A big secret..." she mumbled as she tried to write something on the page, But to no avail.
Rita scanned the words that headed her page over and over she thought if she could dissect their meaning hoping she would get a step closer.
"Lumen...Lumen...Light" Rita was able to translate from Latin
"Histore...Histore? H-History." She mumbled decoding the phrase.
"Light History?"Rita finding herself wound up in the subject burst out the doors letting them slam behind her. She ran herself to The library as quick as she could urgent and curious to solve this mystery. After her trip through town she reached magnolia's library rushing inside. Lacking hesitation the fairy began dragging volumes away from there spots on the shelf tossing them onto an empty table. She slid out a seat at the table piled up with the books.
Rita hastenetly flipped through her notebook finding her page where she had learned that Lumen meant '
Light' In Latin. Where as Histore translated to
'History'. She dusted off a textbook on Latin origins. Next the shadow wizard flipped through the pages until she found the information she was searing for regarding
'Light' the information was brief but it said that in Latin history the known bearer and/or representation of light was a dynasty named '
Lucifer.' She didn't bother questioning the facts before she flipped through the text more until she found another page. This page wore 'Lucifer' headed in bold an top of the page. She intently read away at the text. Due to the facts Lucifer was known as the devil himself according to parts of the text at least. Rita became confused as she buried herself further into the words Lucifer began to be refereed to
'The morning star.' or
'the light bringer.' But is all light good is light power? Is power necessarily a good thing?
Rita began to take notes filling the pages in her notebook one after the next. She had always thought of light as holy,good, and positive. This began to make her think if a light was not always something positive. Light could symbolize power...but, in some instances power isnt pure. 'Light History' What if this light or power was in a way; Similar in a way that Lucifer was refereed to by a bringer of good and great evil in separate parts of Latin history.
This is where Rita began to take her final notes on this little investigation of hers. She pressed her pencil down on the sheet and let her words pour out onto the parchment.
"Great evil as well as a great light. A curse and a blessing, Lumen Histore. When you hear the word 'light' what do you think of? heaven,angels,justice and purity? What about 'darkness' nightmares,monsters evil and Insanity? Is it possible that this great division was built off of our assumptions? Could this 'Lumen Histore' be the craves between these opposing forces,Driving them apart. Or maybe it joins them together...Into unison, Absolute balance an un-perishable power. The truth being that a great power can be used for both good and evil. Could Lumen Histore be the perfect balance between light and darkness of Fairy Tail, and this world? Could it be why it is a secret?...Is this why it is good nor bad? What is Lumen Histore really all about?"
Rita wrote down before shutting her notebook closed.
