Damn, I was hoping for an arc where the minor characters venture out to rescue them, and they would become characters all their own. Would have been adventurous, and could possibly have brought some fresh life into the manga. After doing something as unpredictable as a 7 year time skip/making the main characters disapear, I figured he would have played off it a bit more. Oh well, guess we will see how the old fairy tail will fix their new, gloomy, future world.
