Well just something i heard from those with Volume 44 about Tartaros arc original plan.


 * Face was originally named Memento.
 * Lahar and Doranbolt were both to have survived the council's destruction.
 * Jellal vs Oracion Seis is listed there, along with a scratched out note reading "Seis joins up with the heroes?"
 * Erza and Mira realize the former chairman's involvement before being captured.
 * Cana betrays the guild in addition to Elfman.
 * There's no mention Wendy and Carla being saved from Face by Doranbolt, though there is a scratched out note pointing to "they appear to have died in the attempt", so Mashima may not have planned their survival originally.
 * scratched out notes for part three other than "is summoned"
