This was originally gonna be a response to the other The One Magic thread but it shaped up to be a pretty lengthy theory so I decided to create a thread separately (sorry mods) so that it could be the OP, It is just stuff I was thinking about a couple of times, how possible it is I dont really know but I do know that if it turns out to be true it would be awesome as well as explain the ''bullshit nakama powerups'' (which I personally dont mind in the slightest since I read FT for the enjoyment, characters and the mystery, but others give a lot of hate because of it). Anyway here it is:
though it might be an unbelievable theory I think it is somewhat possible that the One Magic is Lumen Histoire created or sealed there by Mavis and Zeref and that it is what Lucy called it, it's connected to ''love'', though not love particularly but powerful emotions. Ivan (Laxus' father) called it the darkness of FT and Mavis called it the light of FT. And as Lucy told it is both a very powerful magic as well as a very weak magic which could mean that it can not do anything by itself thought that these emotions can strengthen someone (Natsu, Erza, ... powerups) and so create something extremely powerful.
The light refers to the feelings of love and friendship and thats how FT members (with the FT mark) can obtain enormous power through feelings (feelings are converted into power), through Lumen Histoire (similar concept to the Tenrou tree giving protection to everyone with the FT mark, except in this case it is the power of feelings). You could say that the nakama power up is common for everyone in FT, but noone except FT members ever really used it, even other characters said that FT's power are their feelings, NOT power of everyone but the powerf of the SPECIFICAL guild FT.
The darkness refers to Zeref, he is close to Mavis and could have helped Mavis with the Lumen Histoire so just as Mavis (and by extension her guild) can get the power of feelings so can Zeref as they would than both be connected to it. Hades also connected Zeref to the One Magic. While Zeref was ''asleep'' and valued life he had no particular emotions and was very weak, hence defeated by Ultear. But then when he was talking to Mavis he waged war on the world taht rejected him and it seems now he has an enormous amount of power and that is due to anger which like love is a very powerful emotion, though love and friendship represent the light, hatred and anger on the other hand represent darkness.
---- now the the other part, which I could have left out:
Also the 3 great fairy spells seem to be light and two of them at least are connected to feelings:
Fairy Law erases everyone the caster perceives as an enemy
Fairy Sphere was created by Mavis by converting the feelings of FT into the sphere which protects you from everything
and than there is Fairy Glitter
On the other hand Zeref has dark spells, he couldnt control his death magic when he was unsure of his feelings (wanted to die, cried for Natsu, he looked very confused) and because he couldnt control his feelings he couldnt control his power and he just killed everything around him, could also have something to do with Acnologia
the magic of Zeref and Mavis could be connected to the one Magic, Hades also said that to get to the root of the One Magic he specifically needs Zeref
