The Magi (マギ団 Magi Squad) are a band of rebels and freedom fighters working in Manster during the reign of the Grannvale Empire. The Magi sought to oppose the Grannvale occupation of the city of Manster and the wider Manster District, seeking to protect the country's people; during these efforts, they became allies of Leif's revolution army in Grann 776.
Overview
Prior to the start of Leif's revolution, the Magi had been operating for some time in opposition to Raydrik and Grannvale, but had suffered a crushing defeat at the Empire's hands. The group withstood the defeat and gained a new leader: Ced, the Silessean prince, who was passing through the Manster District at the time in search of his wayward father.[1] Under Ced, the Magi rose to become a greater threat to the Manster occupation, proving particularly adept at raiding prisons to free children captured in the child hunts.
The Magi's work eventually took them to Manster Castle itself, where a small force of five of its members spearheaded by Ced invaded the castle's dungeon to free its prisoners; at the time, the prison played host to Leif himself, who had been captured by Raydrik at Fort Kelbeth. Ced entrusted his four companions to Leif's army to aid his escape and serve him until Manster itself was freed,[2] while he himself remained behind with the Magi's remainder to directly help the people of the city.[3] The Magi's subsequent efforts in Manster in the following time culminated with the successful seizure of the entire city, save for the palace itself in which Raydrik awaited;[4] at this point, Ced joined Leif's army in confronting Raydrik himself.

Additionally, in Chapter 6, Ced commands a small force of nine generic neutral Magi members if Chapter 4x was not visited. This group consists of two Bow Fighters, two Fighters and five Myrmidons, one of whom is female.[5]
Trivia
- The Magi as a cohesive group are not present in Genealogy of the Holy War; instead, Ced (or Hawk, his substitute) appears to operate alone in liberating Manster.
