Not a fan of this chapter. Obviously the prelude emotionalism is a nuisance, but it's understandable and I'm accustomed to it now. The problem I have is the rapid rate of progression. The foundation work for this arc has be solid. No complaints, but then it went from 0 to 60 mph in a one chapter.

To play devil's advocate though, I fully expect multiple guilds around Fiore to join in the battle one-by-one, if not all at once. Which was my main complication with this chapter because there is just no way in absolute hell that a single guild can stand against the might an entire empire. With the chief of staff possessing the power equal, or greater, to that of Fiore's Wizard Saints.

The 9 remaining Wizard Saints will have to make an appearance. Their strength is going to be the contrast of defeat and victory for the forces of Fiore.
