The Coven

The Coven (ザコブン (Za Kobun) is a criminal organization founded by Myst Kagekyo approximately in the year X800. For well over a century, they were unknown by the masses and even to the modern day, they remain at best an urban legend among the common folk.

History
The Coven was founded by Myst Kagekyo to gather dark mages to her side for an as of yet unknown cause. Shortly after, they began a life of petty thefts that blossomed into full-on bank robberies to gather wealth that soon all but guaranteed the group’s financial prosperity for many years.

Around forty years prior to the Phoenix Saga, they were able to capture Blackbird Castle in Minstrel, which has become one of their few strongholds throughout Ishgar.
