Elias Martins Duffy was a man who loved Magic since he was a little boy.
He was so enamored by the concept of bending the laws of the world and achieving supernatural effects through the wondrous energy of Mana.
He patiently waited for the day he would turn five years old so he could finally Awaken and become a proper Mage.
Unfortunately… he could not.
It was only until he became nine years old that he could finally do so, and even then it was barely.
Apparently, he had a very poor aptitude for Magic.
The Mana Fragments in his body were in very small quantities, and the rate of production was also incredibly slow.
He was never going to become the kind of Mage he desired; forever doomed to not being enough.
Did he give up, though?
No!
The major source of motivation for him was Lewis Griffith, the man who revolutionized Magic despite being inept.
