Overview

Earthland Lucy, Natsu, Wendy, Charle, and Happy reach the Royal City, where they find a Lacrima made from the magical energy of Magnolia. To save their friends, Charle reveals that she has had information about Edolas flowing into her head since they arrived, and the group devises a plan based on getting close to the King of Edolas and having Lucy use Gemini to learn how to transform the Lacrima back. Their plan is foiled when they are ambushed by Erza Knightwalker, whose forces exalt Happy and Charle as beings known as "Exceeds."
