1. waking up to ash and dust

Natsu and Gray find themselves flung through a portal into a world they don't recognize - a magic-less, dystopian version of Earthland called Edolas. With their magic gone and a dire need to get home, they find themselves in an alliance with some (un)familar faces. As they work with the rebellion of underground mages to take down Faust and the city of Imperium, they realize that if they do get home, they might not return quite the same.

CW for graphic violence, drug use and references to torture. Each chapter will have trigger warnings as necessary.
