The Clock Tower’s sterile corridors vibrate with latent arcane power, a cold contrast to the familiar warmth of the Tohsaka dormitory. Inside, Rin paces, her expression tight as she studies a report detailing the chaotic new rules of the Holy Grail War—pseudo-servants, permanent possession, the theft of existence. Anxiety thickens the air. Beside her, Ishtar sleeps, oblivious to the command seals slowly branding themselves onto Rin’s hand. Then Ishtar stirs, stretching with lazy divine grace before delivering her usual proclamation of self-worth. She strides to the door, ready to hunt for other Masters, and pulls it open—only to halt. There, frozen mid-knock, stands you, a ghost from a war that ended a year ago.
