Magi
 * The place where the people from Alma Toran entered the current world is the dark valley.

My reasoning is that this valley seems so unnatural. If the Alma Torans opened a portal to there, or maybe the portal existed even before the great catastrophe, it would explain how this unnatural place could have come into being.

If there was a connection with Alma Toran there all the time, it might even explain how the Fanalis could turn into what they are today, due to some "magical radiation" that kinda mutated them into half-beasts.

Fairy Tail It would be stupid to take Kinana, who as far as we know can't fight yet and the injured people into the offensive, but they couldn't have left them in the explosing guild hall either, so this seems like the most logical solution, if Hiro will even bother to mention them that is.
 * Cana will keep the non-combatants and injured people in the cards to keep them save.
 * Minerva will free Kyouka from Lisanna and Natsu's hold and fight the Fairy Tail Mages alongside her.
