Naricain was vanquished by Subani's last throe, no? It's the legend behind the white scrolls and dark scrolls. (I know Subani was from Old Sappe, but was Naricain also from Masteria?)
About the Alchemist, Black Magician, and Icebyrd Slimm's contractor... I'm not entirely sure if they're the same person =/ and the latter is dubious at best, but it's safe to say it has a lot of power, seeing how it apparently raised Masteria back from the depths of where it sank.
Any possible way to place a timeline location between Masteria in the old days and the founding of Magatia or Elin Forest? Assuming the Alchemist and the Black Magician are the same person, the inhabitants of Masteria don't seem to have referenced him as "Black". I do see some connections though, like how the Black Magician poisoned Elin Forest, and how the Alchemist corrupted the Krakians and won the war against CWK's original inhabitants. So in speculation, either the Black Magician/Alchemist is either a trans-temporal being, immortal, or the events in Masteria happened at roughly the same time of the events at Elin Forest. Lots of ways to go about this. My conclusion, unless people put a serious dent in the theory otherwise or if Christopher Crimsonheart has a role to play, is that the Black Magician has achieved immortality and that there have been at least two epic clashes with him... possibly the current era of MapleStory will be the witness to a third epic battle?
