A soft sigh left his throat. He was relieved to see that the mages he invited were indeed coming to the forest. The first one to arrive was Aria Serotina. The celebrity immediately gained his attention when she was performing, so the moment he learned that she was a mage, he tried to convince her to join his new guild. Of course she wouldn't be one to fight one on one with someone, but she would be a good help for the others. It was nice to see that he had succeeded in scouting someone with such an interesting and unique kind of magic.
He didn't have to wait long for the second mage to arrive as they answered Aria's question before he could even open his mouth. It was Avinne Azurca, the pastry chef he admired. He totally didn't expect for her to have magic, but she did. Her kind of magic was just as unique as Aria's, but Avinne's would be more suitable for attacking people. That's why he wanted her in White Gull, she would probably get along well with Aria.
Helena Telmari arrived as the third mage. Her personality and magic were very different from Aria's and Avinne's. They were more violent and daring. The same could be said about Holly Vertila, who arrived fourth. Afterwards, Kouta and Killian Kaviar also arrived. Looks like that would be it for the moment. Although there could be others on their way, it might be polite to speak to the people who were already there. He closed his eyes for a second and straightened his back, so he stood on the rock, high enough for everyone to see him.
"Good evening, everyone. I am glad to see that I am not the only one who is tired of Catamount's dictatorship. They took over our village, they ruined our childhood memories, they destroyed the confidence of our people and make them work for them to get nothing in return. It is time to get our town back, our people, our dignity. They took it by power, so we are going to take it back... by power! Of course we aren't strong enough to beat them right now. A lot of mages tried to fight them in the past and gave their lives to protect our home, we have to become stronger than they were back then. I think I don't have to tell you guys that it has to be kept a secret from the people of Catamount. That means that we will keep on gathering at this specific place in the middle of the night, so they won't know about us until we are strong enough to scare them off to somewhere that isn't here!
You all know who I am, Zane, a mage with Imagination Magic and the founder of this new guild. However, you probably don't know each other. The one to my left, Aria Serotina, a mage who is able to use the supporting kind of magic. Next to her, Avinne Azurca, a pastry chef with the ability to manipulate pastries and sweets. Then we have Helena Telmari, someone with a more violent kind of magic that uses fog. Holly Vertila, one of the strongest people in the second group. Kouta, he is together with me in the first group and uses Earth Magic. And last, but not least, Killian Kaviar, someone with magic that manipulates gold. And Killian, I will immediately tell you that this is indeed not all of us. However, instead of waiting for the others, I recommend you to come to me for your guild mark and talk to each other. It is important that we become a family. It will help us with our training and with becoming a team who can combine their magic to defeat Catamount. Becoming a family is the first step to scaring Catamount away. Our bond is what will make us strong!"
