[ When the video feed clicks on, there's actually some more silence for a few moments as the man frowns slightly - as if in concentration - at the device. But then when he notices it's working now, that he figured it out, his expression eases up a little to form a more neutral face. This person doesn't seem panicked about the situation in the slightest, even if he might be curious. ]

I assume this device is working now. [ Thankfully the grail's influence and all that helps slightly with figuring out this sort of things. He takes a deep breath, as if preparing himself to speak. His voice is rather composed, reassured. ] I have been summoned to this place. For what purpose, I do not know yet. [ But there is a purpose, there has to be, he knows. Even if he's not here as a Servant exactly, there's always some sort of purpose when God is involved. All he has to do is figure out what, and that thought steadies him, makes him as calm as always. ]

It seems this summoning was quite.. unconventional though. And though I do know that I should be giving out my name first before asking any questions as a sign of good will, I am not quite sure if it would be right to refer to myself as 'Archer' when I have not entirely been summoned as such this time. Still, any information at all concerning my current predicament would be appreciated.

[ a slight nod, almost to himself more than anything. ]

The living God will surely repay you for your kindness.

... It is alright. I do not have any particular reason to leave again immediately. [ what else is a heroic spirit to do but fight, after all. :T ]

And it understandable that they would not wish to confront each other here. This is not part of any Holy Grail War, after all - or I would assume so, at least. [ with this kind of not-quite summoning. ] ... But in that case, you are familiar with Masters and Servants too?

There are quite a number of Servants and Masters here. I was bound to find out something about it and the war that went on back home, even if I wasn't informed then.

How strange, that there still is such a gathering of them even in a different sort of setting and for a different purpose..

[ still, it's only slight surprise - maybe leaning more towards curiosity. ]

But all the same, I can see your reasoning. If there is such a considerable number, it would be rather difficult and useless to keep it a secret.

Perhaps it's part of the mystery of why and how we were brought here.

Perhaps everyone here is involved with it one way or another. Even if they are not directly involved, like you.

... Well, it is a mere possibility. I am fairly sure there are people who may contradict this kind of theory present in this place.

I've heard that some of us come from different worlds entirely, including those where no such war may exist.

So you are saying that they managed to summon all of us into this realm from different worlds entirely?

That is, in fact, what I'm saying.

[ there's a slight pause. ]

I suppose after everything this is not something I should find strange in the slightest.. Regardless, it is not such an unthinkable thing to accept. Thank you for your help.

No problem. A monk should do everything they can to help those in need of aid.

... A monk, is it..

[ leaving it at that for now, though. ]

It is good to see people being devoted to such a cause. In fact, I would even say the world always needs more people like that.

No protests here. I've had mixed success so far, but I believe it to be worth it.

Mixed success, is it?

Some people are just contrary.

Ah, that much is true. It is usually for the best to just let those people do as they please, but all the same.. that usually only tends to let them get themselves into danger.

Unfortunately, I'd rather not see them in danger even when they don't care for my help.

That is a good attitude to have. Be careful not to overextend yourself, though.

I'll try my best.
