In a Holy Grail War, Mages (Masters) and their Heroic Spirits (Servants) fight for the control of the Holy Grail—an omnipotent wish-granting device said to fulfill any desire. Years have passed since the end of the Fifth Holy Grail War in Japan. Now, signs portend the emergence of a new Holy Grail in the western American city of Snowfield
The Heroic Spirit Incident
Due to the anomalous battle taking place in the desert between Archer and Lancer, various factions become aware of the commencement of the Holy Grail War. As the situation unfolds into chaos, Faldeus, tirelessly acquiring information and manipulating the press, catches sight of a girl new to Snowfield. This girl is Ayaka Sajyou, who wanders the city aimlessly. A mark resembling a Command Spell is engraved on her body.
Ensemble VS Pretense
Following the uproar at the opera house, Saber and Ayaka are detained by the Snowfield Police Department. Saber answers the police’s questioning candidly, showing no regard for maintaining the secrecy of the Holy Grail War. As Orlando expresses exasperation in dealing with Saber and the fallout he is causing, Orlando is visited by a certain man—Hansa Cervantes, a priest dispatched by the Holy Church as Overseer in this fake Holy Grail War.
