Volume 01; [Video]

[breaker_gorgon]

 Good evening. 

[It's a soft voice on the line, one that seems calm yet slightly unsure. It perfectly matches the confusion in the light eyes peering into the screen.]

I don't recall this place or how I got here. The view is foreign to me as is this room. 

[She'll turn the little device over in her hand. It had taken her quite a bit to make use of the thing. She recognized it as a phone, but it wasn't anything she had seen in her time as a familiar. This only served to concern her further.]

Not that I mind, really, but I must find my way back to Sakura. Can anyone tell me the fastest route back to Fuyuki City? I believe...somehow...I've gotten lost.

*The video shows a linefacing pale girl, about thirteen or fourteen, with dead-looking eyes. She shrugs.*

You'll return to the exact point in time from which you were taken when those in charge of this island will it. It's pointless, but that's how it is.

[unknownrival]

Matou Sakura? I hope she's all right on her own, but... I don't think you can return, or I would have done so previously.

[croibhristeoir]

At the moment, there's no way back to Fuyuki from here.

[Have one glasses-wearing individual.]

...Forgive me for asking outright like this, but are you a Servant by any chance?

[VIdeo]

[monohoshizao]

[Ah, it's her. Again.]

Rider, correct? You have no memories about your stay here, I presume?

[You're the second third F/SN's Rider he encountered, just saying.]

[flighthearted]

Fu... yu... ki...

[Her voice stumbles over the name as she tests it out.]

There are more cities here?

[breaker_gorgon]

Those...in charge? I'm afraid I don't understand.

[breatheinthefog]

Everyone here was taken.

[breaker_gorgon]

Taken? So, you're implying I was kidnapped rather than summoned?

[breaker_gorgon]

You know Sakura? Is she here? I'm not so concerned about returning as being with her.

[video]

[breaker_gorgon]

Are you from Fuyuki as well, then?

[A slight pause.]

I am. Although the only ones I can imagine being interested in such information would be either a magus or a servant themselves. Which are you?

[Video]

[breaker_gorgon]

My stay...here? I'm afraid not.

Do we know one another?

[Enjoy your amnesia for the third time, then. ♥]

Video

[breaker_gorgon]

That's where I've been living...however, I'm not sure where here is.

[Video]

[monohoshizao]

Ahaha. That's what I presume. [A small heartful chuckle goes here.]

Servant Assassin of Fifth Grail War, Kojiro Sasaki. The pleasure's of this introduction is all mine.

[Video]

[breaker_gorgon]

You're not a shy one are you? I'm of the Rider class and though my grail war has ended, I don't mind the moniker.

I must say I'm surprised to see a servant like myself still linger on. You must have quite a unique master.

[Video]

[monohoshizao]

Quite in the same predicament, aren't we? Feel free to address me as any.

Ohoho. [Just hear his amused laugh, man. So convincing.] She was very unique.

[unknownrival]

She was one of my classmates back home.

[video]

[croibhristeoir]

Yes--I was a Servant, once. Try not to be too alarmed, restarting the war is the last thing I would want.

[breatheinthefog]

We don't know. Either is a possibility.

Video

[flighthearted]

I... should explore more. Empress Sanaki called this city 'Prospero'.

[breaker_gorgon]

Well, you can't all have been summoned as servants. That is very strange, though. Do you know what this place is called?

[breaker_gorgon]

Back home? So...we're nowhere close to Fuyuki, then?

[breatheinthefog]

The city is Prospero. The island is also Prospero.

[video]

[breaker_gorgon]

That's quite the relief, then. I'd prefer to understand my situation a bit better before I go making any enemies.

Can you tell me anything about this place?

[video]

[croibhristeoir]

Only the basics of what I know myself. This place is called Prospero, an island city in America. We've all been brought here through some unknown power for a purpose we know just as little about, to start with.

[Video]

[breaker_gorgon]

Very well. First names are more direct for me.

Oh? Now I'm curious. Just how unique are we talking, here?
