❚ 001 (video)

[knightking]

[Unlike a majority of you non-hipster Servants, Saber here doesn't come from post-canon or post-death or any of that--no, he was in the middle of something VERY, VERY IMPORTANT like SAVING MY MASTER'S LIFE important. So aside from suddenly waking up here being 1) very strange and 2) very unexpected it is also 3) VERY UNWANTED. Technology was never his forte but at this rate he needed information somehow.]

Assuming this will reach other people, I would like to request assistance. Specifically, where this city is and whatever transportation services there are here. [Since it sure didn't look like he'd be able to go back to where he was by foot and whatnot.] I apologize for the curtness of this message, but I'm afraid I've something very important that I have to do.

[He pauses, a difficult sort of expression on his face, but... well he'd feel bad if he didn't at least give out his name since he's asking for help, even if it probably isn't that good of an idea when he has no idea what's going on. But he's a knight okok, GOTTA BE POLITE.] My name is Saber, and thank you for your time.

[ Excuse me, your name was what again?? ]

You have reached Prospero, a city in the United States of America. The year is 2012 and whatever business you may have had is no longer a concern of yours. For even if you return from which you came, you will see that it is different.

[ Says the girl who looks as identical to him as she possibly can be. In fact, she's staring hard at device in her hands as confusion fills her expression. ]

Saber.. From which Holy Grail War do you hail?

[knightking]

[Wow it's like his long lost twin sister UNSURE BRO UNSURE. But even with all the information she provided, he sighs in frustration.] Sorry, but could you explain what you mean by "different"? I can't just leave my business alone despite apparently having traveled across the world and even through time now.

[W e l p he was hoping people just pass it off as a strange name or nickname, but if she's mentioning Holy Grail War then there's no use hiding it.] From my own, of course, but let me ask you first; for what reason do you need to know?

[croibhristeoir]

[ANOTHER Saber?]

I'm afraid there's no way back, if that is what you're looking for.

[knightking]

[ALL the Sabers.]

There has to be a way back if I managed to make my way in.

[king_of_heroes]

[ This guy is going to be about as helpful as a brick wall, really.

But gee, doesn't he look slightly familiar? It's okay because he's getting those very same vibes. Although he's totally unsure why at the moment. ]

And so another Saber appears. That makes you the fifth, I believe.

[knightking]

You--! [CAN'T HOLD ALL THIS RAGE CAN'T HOLD IT CAN'T HOLD IT]

[video]

[knightking]

[Except this guy doesn't look like a high school delinquent.

(pokerface)]

Wait, what?

[ video ]

[nosecondstrike]

Oh? Another Saber? How curious.

[ video ]

[knightking]

It seems we of the Saber class are a commodity around here. [a pause] Can I guess you know about the Holy Grail War too?

[Video]

[unknownrival]

[Issei decided to randomly listen to other people's responses today - the drama with the Servants had been worth it - and so he's not repeating the same disbelief, but...]

Why do you get to be a male version of someone who's already incredibly beautiful? That isn't fair, that isn't fair at all...

[Video]

[knightking]

[How is he even supposed to respond to this UHHH.]

To be fair, I had no idea a female version of myself even existed, but... I'm sorry?

[Video]

[babel_hacker]

...There's probably enough Sabers here to form a sports team, now.

[Video]

[knightking]

From what I've heard, that definitely seems to be the case. Now the question would be what sport would we play?

[scorpiospider]

We aaaaaaaall have important things to do. You're not special.

[Hi male!Saber. Have an incredibly dismissive six sweep troll]

[knightking]

I'm sure you all do, but even so it's not something I can just let go so easily.

[You just don't understand okay HE NEEDS TO SAVE A LIFE RIGHT NOW!!!]

[white_knightin]

The city is located in the United States, though you're kinda stuck here for the most part.

[ Also why does this guy kinda look like him in away, did someone make an evil clone in his sleep or something. It does seem like something everyone would do in order to get back at him for trash talking. ]

I've never seen you in the Moon cell before, so you're not from any of those wars. Who exactly are you?

[knightking]

[Oh be still, his heart, IS HE REALLY SEEING HIS BELOVED NEPHEW AFTER ALL THIS TIME??? DAMNED BE THE FACT HE ENDED UP HERE TO BEGIN WITH BUT BLESSED BE THAT HE REUNITES WITH HIS NEPHEW. (YAY)]

... is that really you, Gawain?

[video]

[devola]

Juuuust about everyone you're going to talk to on this thing's gotten pulled away from doing something important. Or each one thinks so, anyway. [Shrug who is she to judge.]

...Relatedly, have you got a name other than "Saber"? Rude as it is to ask that off the bat, I think there's four of 'em running around now that you're here.

[we cannot hold all these sabers...]

[video]

[knightking]

So I've heard, but unfortunately that doesn't help much when I'm running out of time.

[It is an impossibility to hold all the Sabers...] It's alright, others have already informed me of the situation. Depending on who you know though, it might not be much help... well in any case, you can call me Arthur.

[kitsunemimi]

Geh. Another Saber... How about some Casters, to even the playing field a little!? Geez!

[ She does look a little peeved... ]

And on that note you could take back all the Archers, too. Except that cute green haired one...

Ara!

There I go again, rambling!

Welcome, Saber [ name spoken with such indignation it could make one's blood curdle but her expression returns to brilliant vibrancy! ] to Prospero City. We're stuck here. And we can't leave, for reasons unknown.

Oh! But you get to become your very own Caster servant and cast magic here!

video;

[knightking]

Can I take a guess that Casters aren't too popular around here? [IT'S A JOKE IT'S A JOKE though from the sound of her voice maybe joking's not the best idea.] As it is though, I could agree with you on taking back the Archers

[Because really even if it's a different Gilgamesh EW ARCHERS GROSS.]

It'd be rude of me not to thank you for the welcome, so thanks. But going from a Saber to a Caster, huh? I can't say I was ever too good at magic. [Merling save him...]

Video

[sandma]

How many are there of you?

Video

[knightking]

Including me, I think there are five Sabers now. Apparently.

[Not here] 1/2

[truthsnomiracle]

(To judge by Arturia's and Diarmuid's public conversations, it would appear that much as one cannot guarantee that people hail from the same timeframe, one cannot be assured that any two people from worlds that seem alike are indeed from the same one. ...How frustrating.)

[Video] 2/2

[truthsnomiracle]

As most seem more focused on your identity than on the situation at hand, allow me to clarify a few points. First, there is a hotel which will provide free lodging to kidnappees. While its motivations for doing so are as yet an open question, it constitutes a source of shelter nonetheless. Second, it is dangerous to be outdoors at midnight for reasons that must be seen to be believed. Third, the age of kings is over, and you would do well to come to some rudimentary understanding of the truths of this era.

[video] this is too good to pass

[lyres]

Yet another Servant Saber!

My, aren't we crowding this place quite a bit?

[Not that she's complaining. Not complaining at all.]

[video] oh my god can this get any more hideous

[knightking]

... please tell me you're not another version of King Arthur. [YOU LOOK JUST LIKE ARTURIA SIS DON'T BLAME HIM!!]

[video]

[monohoshizao]

[Hi Imma another one from the class that no one seems to care.]

Another Saber summoned to Prospero, eh? You have my welcome.

[video]

[knightking]

[Alas, poor Assassins...]

Thanks. It's nice to see that there are so many friendly people at least.

[video]

[needsteaplz]

My, my, we're getting a lot more new people lately. Especially those with classes as names. Welcome to Prospero in the meantime. My name is Saori Nakagawa. If there are any other questions you have about this place, I'd be happy to answer them to my best ability.

[video]

[knightking]

It certainly seems like a we're a popular bunch of people to have kidnapped... But in any case, it's a pleasure to meet you, Saori. Like I said, you can call me Saber, but since there's also a few other Sabers here you can also just call me Arthur. As for other questions...

Well, I guess I can start off with asking where a good place to eat is.

[video]

[robbedsanity]

[...Why does this guy look familiar to him...]

Has anyone told you how this place turns?

[video]

[knightking]

[BECAUSE HE IS KIND OF YOUR KING??? Oh but after Gawain he's not feeling so sure about this... (bah) Maybe he can have some hope still!!]

Yes, I've already received much help, thank you. [...] You wouldn't happen to be Lancelot, would you?
