Short Rest - Fugue Laboratory (Results)
The short rest was successful.
CONSTANTINE has 11/11 health, and 3/5 mana. KUKULKAN has 7/7 health, and 11/13 mana.
You thought you heard some sounds outside… but nothing came from it. It seems like you remained safe in the lab.
-
Items Found: heal(32); and heal(16); as well as a 'Zone Map'.
Looking at the map, it seemed as if the direct areas were the Crimson Citadel, Nameless City, and Transient Megalopolis.
-
Short Rest Discussion:
With the time spent, CONSTANTINE caught you and KUKULKAN up on everything that happened. Despite it seeming like mere moments between your 'death' and 'return'- it had been about a week… so a lot had changed regarding the climate of the war from a social standpoint- as far as casualties went, it was in a bit of a standstill.
LANCER had been killed by AVENGER and FOREIGNER, and GUNNER had been systematically taking out SABER's proxies, rendering the large number of 12 to simply 4: FURIOSO, BOUCLIER, HISTORIA, and LUNE. Furthermore, It seems as if what CONDUCTOR told you wasn't a total lie. While the Solar Cell Holy Grail War was participated in teams, the winning team would become the 'Sovereign Protectors' of the Solar Cell in place of the Lair Servants. They would be granted power and authority under the Administrator, and be free to do as they pleased, with their life's wishes granted to them. However, the less members remaining on a team, the more power would be granted to the survivors- so the particularly devious would try to strategize and win the war while systematically lessening their own numbers. That didn't mean everyone was going for that strategy, however. Some Servants were perfectly fine with sharing the responsibility and having their own personal wishes granted as well- FOREIGNER, for example, seemed like she ended up in that camp. In addition, the particularly brave could challenge the Lair Servants in mortal combat, gathering the Trigger Keys in order to be granted further power by the Administrator and the Architect.
Regarding the Red Faction, SABER wished to unite both the Red and Blue Factions under his own banner, creating total unity under him as Emperor.
However, CASTER wished for the Grail War to proceed as normal, causing a rift within the Red Faction. SABER, his proxies, and LANCER were on one side, while CASTER and ASSASSIN were on the other. ARCHER and BERSERKER went on their own, still fighting in the war, but not fully allied to one side or another. RIDER could also be considered a 'neutral party', now that he was your Servant again.
CONSTANTINE, having temporarily contracted with SABER in order to not fade away, felt indebted to him- and was told by CASTER that she was going to convince ARCHER and BERSERKER to join her before killing SABER and allowing the War to progress as intended. He didn't know when it would occur, but if he was out for several days, he assumed that it would be soon before CASTER knocked down the doors to the Crimson Citadel and got rid of SABER.
-
As CONSTANTINE spoke, there was suddenly a message triggered in the laboratory. A man, projected through holographic light, appeared in the center of the room.
"Enemies of the Solar Cell." "For both of our sakes, I will keep this brief. I am the Lord of the Nameless City. Honorifics aside, however, you can consider me a 'Lair Servant'." "I am assuming that doctor Asclepius has been killed, and that me and my allies are next. With that in mind, while battle is inevitable, victors are decided ultimately by their knowledge. Knowledge that I possess." "Which leads me to my point. Come to the Nameless City, reach the center tower, and ask for the 'Lady of the Nameless City'. She will act as my envoy for our parley, as if I met you in person, we would almost certainly come to blows." "I hope you choose reason."
Without much fanfare, the message ended, leaving you, CONSTANTINE, and KUKULKAN.
"…Well, that puts both the Nameless City and the Crimson Citadel on our map. That, or we could just ignore both and head south to the Megalopolis."
KUKULKAN added. CONSTANTINE folded his arms, nodding.
"…Let's take some time to think about it, before making any decisions. The Crimson Citadel is certainly risky, but Saber will be a worthwhile ally. The Nameless City could be a trap, but also has the chance of having knowledge. And the Megalopolis… well, it has established itself as a bit of a neutral zone. The Lair Servant ruling there isn't exactly fond of conflict- both from the War, or from us, I'd assume... but it is a relatively major commercial center if we want to gather resources. We just need to make sure we keep our heads down. It seems like the only people who know for sure what the 'Interlopers' look like are the Lair Servants and potentially Saber."
That seemed... about right. There wasn't much time to tell whether PRETENDER recognized you or not before you started calling his name and telling him everything.

Tumblr Holy Grail War, Another End: Night 2 (MASTERS FROM BEYOND/Team Avenger)
Everything felt cold.
The maddening colors and sounds from Foreigner's assault stopped... but so did the sensation of your Servants mana.
They were gone.
The silence permeated for a while longer, before a voice cut through.
???: "Hey. Heeeey. Maaaasters. You alive?"
Two silhouettes, both familiar, stare down at you.
'Masculine Shadow': "Welp. They're dead. I guess Foreigner will grab the Grail instead."
'Feminine Shadow': "No, they're looking at us. Give them another moment..."
Avenger(?): "There you are. Don't freak. This is a… safe zone, from Foreigner. She really did a number on the system."
Ruler(?): "Um… hello. It's been a while."
Avenger(?): "Yo, Masters. Despite the new look, it's still me-- and this is 'Ruler', but also kind of not."
Ruler(?): "I'm just a backup that I made in case the gambling mini-game went wrong, but it seemed like a lot more went wrong instead… maybe one hundred three trillion, seventy-three billion, nine hundred fifty-nine million, nine hundred eighty-nine thousand, four hundred and ninety-five Grail Wars was my limit… I'm sorry Masters, I really biffed this. And now my main body has pushed this war to the limit."
Avenger(?): "Technically, one hundred three trillion, seventy-three billion, nine hundred fifty-nine million, nine hundred eighty-nine thousand, four hundred and ninety-four- considering the Archer debacle. But the Grail is full. Again. Since we're so close to the end. Maybe you should introduce yourself. For real this time."
'Ruler': "…Right. I'm not a Servant… not properly, at least. I'm one of the Overseer's two THGW Terminals, modeled off the Einzbern homunculi, the vessel for the 'Lesser Grail'. I guess you guys can keep calling me 'Ruler'… I've gotten used to it. I'm happy to see you all again... and I'm sorry for the trouble I've caused-- the trouble I am causing. RULER is still out there, after all."
'Avenger': "Same here. I'm the other terminal, modeled off 'All The World's Evils'- or the 'Corrupted Grail'- as a countermeasure to our 'Ruler' here. I'm as close to a recreation of the thing as a digital Grail War can get, so I'm fine if you keep calling me 'Avenger'. Nice to meet you. Again."
'Ruler': "Right now, 'I'... the current version of 'myself' that's still acting as the Adjudicator of the Holy Grail War, is currently on a bit of a rampage, and Foreigner is too. Best case, some of you will need to keep her busy, and the rest of you have to destroy the Simulacrum Greater Grail… the Overseer's main terminal, and the source of Avenger and I's data."
'Avenger': "Y'know, you really screwed things up, 'Ruler'. That's what you get for trying to suddenly take on a whole Servant's duties. Then again, I cheated my way into being a Servant too, so I can't really talk. Still... I would have wanted to avoid killing Foreigner, but it seems inevitable. But she'll make the data unsalvageable..."
'Ruler': "I know, I know... but we have work to do. Masters. Just know that destroying the Grail... that'll end all of this. Completely. The absolute end of this Simulated Holy Grail War."
'Ruler': "I've been a bad Ruler, I'm really not cut out for this job… But even as some pathetic backup data, I still have some authority. You have 5 Command Spells left, right? I think that can get you..."
'Avenger': "Hang on. I've still got all three of mine thanks to my Masters. Can you toss that in, too? Verg Avesta and Unlimited Raise Dead are kind of useless at this point."
'Ruler': "Eight Command Spells... I can really do something with that. I'm in charge of developing Spirit Origins for this Grail War after all."
'Avenger': "Hehehe. Told you there was a plan."
'Ruler': "Rider... I can't salvage his data. I'm so sorry... Still, I can salvage the others. Maybe with their memories intact... we'll have to see."
Avenger: "I'm followin' you. So whichever option is in 1st place generates those two Servants at full power with 3 Command Spells, 2nd place does the same, and then 3rd place summons a pair with reduced power. That way we can split ourselves up. Two groups of Servants go to help me fight Foreigner, and the last group goes to destroy the Grail."
Ruler: "Exactly! So, please choose wisely. This will be your final fight as Masters of this Grail War. So survive. Please. I'll be happy to answer any questions you need. My job is to help, after all!"
'Ruler' is using her authority to bring back Servants at the cost of Command Spells!
The results in 1st and 2nd place (costing 3 Command Spells each) will go to confront Foreigner alongside Avenger!
While 3rd place (costing 2 Command Spells) will accompany Ruler to destroy the Greater Grail!
Avenger's skills have changed!
Servant Skills:
'ANGRA MAINYU' (AVENGER / TGHW GRAIL TERMINAL α)
Zarich: Right Fang Grinder (C) - Reduce enemy Servant boosts by -5%.
Tawrich: Left Fang Grinder (C) - Gain a +5% attack boost.

Avenger has 2 wounds! He has a +20% boost!
