Heartfilia Family

The Heartfilia Family is a family of a race of human beings from the Kingdom of Fiore. Although not much is known about the family, generations of Heartfilia Celestial Spirit Mages took part of The 400 Year Plan. Currently, the only known active members are Lucy Heartfilia and Anna Heartfilia.
== History ==
Over 400 years ago, Anna Heartfilia met Zeref Dragneel, a Mage who required her power for plan to defeat Acnologia; humanity's greatest threat. The plan was to send the Dragon Slayers with their foster parents sealed inside them to a period of time that is rich in Ethernano so that their souls, which were maimed by Acnologia, could properly heal.
However, because Anna opened the Eclipse Gate in the past, someone from the Heartfilia family would need to tend to its opening at the specified date of exit. With every successive generation of Celestial Spirit Mage after Anna, the family waited for the time that the Dragon Slayers were to purportedly arrive through the Gate.
Some time later, Layla Heartfilia worked in the merchant's guild, "Love & Lucky", where she met and fell in love with Jude Heartfilia. The two eventually decided to become independent when Layla became pregnant with Lucy. They chose her name when they noticed that the sign of the guild had the letter K missing so instead, it was read as "Love & Lucy"; this made an impression on them so they decided to name their child "Lucy" if their child was a girl.
A few years later, in accordance with the knowledge passed down through her clan for the past four hundred years, Layla followed the word of her ancestor, and opened the Eclipse Gate of her time on July 7, X777.
When Layla passed away, Jude became overly obsessed with his business and money that neglected his daughter, which eventually led her to run away from home just over a year before the beginning of the story. It is revealed that Jude had an affair with Trisha Elric and got pregnant with his child and he abandon her because of that.
