The Tragic History of Ezra Scarlet
Early in her childhood, Erza was enslaved by a black magic cult and forced to build the Tower of Heaven, a structure developed for the purpose of resurrecting the dark mage Zeref. She was imprisoned together with several other slaves, most of them children. Despite the harsh conditions of her enslavement and labor, Erza became close friends with the other children. She also formed a strong bond with Rob, an elderly mage from the Fairy Tail guild, who taught her about magic and his guild.
One day in X776, Shô came up with a plan for the ten-year-old Erza and all their friends to escape from the tower. They were unfortunately caught by the guards, who decided to send the escape’s mastermind to the tower’s disciplinary chamber. The guards reasoned that Erza was the one responsible and sent her to the disciplinary chamber, where she was tortured to the brink of death and lost her right eye. Jellal rescued her, but was captured soon after. Finally fed up with their torment, Erza staged a revolt against their captors so they could escape and save Jellal.
The revolt appeared to be successful at its inception until the tower’s mages arrived to repress the slaves, causing most of the other slaves to retreat. During the attack, Erza watched in horror as her friend Simon’s lower jaw was blasted off by a magical attack, while Rob sacrificed himself to defend Erza from another mage’s attack. In her rage, Erza’s latent magical power was activated for the first time, and she used it to turn all of the weapons and tools around her against the guards, finishing the revolt.
As the other slaves boarded ships meant to ensure their freedom, she reunited with Jellal, but discovered that he had changed; Jellal had been possessed by what he claimed to be the spirit of Zeref, and decided that the only way for them to attain true freedom was to complete the Tower of Heaven and revive Zeref. Erza refused to help him, prompting Jellal to cast her out of the tower by herself, only letting her live because she helped take care of all the guards who would have opposed him. Before letting her escape, Jellal told Erza to keep the Tower of Heaven a secret from the government, as well as to never return to the tower, threatening to destroy the tower and kill everyone in it, including their friends, if she disobeyed.
After washing up on the shores of Fiore, Erza made her way to and joined the Fairy Tail guild. She habitually began to wear armor and acted distant from the other members, still traumatized by Jellal’s betrayal.
