To the Nameless Battlefield

Hi.

Rise and shine. Say, how was your sleep?

？！

Let's see, this is a place in the middle of nowhere. Oh, the Missy isn't here.

Just you and me. My bad, for forcing you into this.

The Doctor's voice doesn't reach here. That little creature isn't here, either.

Why? Well, that's simple.

This is

？！

You can call it a dream, or perhaps somewhere deeper than consciousness and unconsciousness?

I'm not clear on the details, it occasionally happens to Servants and Masters.

A shared dream. Put it simply, we can see each other's memories

That's why we can both exist here like this, even though it's "my dream."

That's right. This is my dream. My memories. My battlefield.

It looks like the one you saw before? Yeah, I suppose it does from your point of view.

It's linked to the most similar sight you've seen recently, I think.

Look, here they come. To me, they look like the armies of Connacht

But who knows what they look like to you. Hey, snap out of it, it's gonna be a fight.

Try to keep up with your commands! If you can summon other Heroic Spirits, then do it!

Let's go!

Hahaha! Yes, that's the way!

Mow down that horde of enemies! Stab them, slash them, hack them, there's no end to them!

Just like the incoming waves. An endless battle on an endless battlefield!

Sure brought up some nice memories, didn't it? Hahaha!

Come on, Master! If we lose, we die. Well, not that I'm sure about that

But fight like it is! Now then, more are coming!

...I guess this is it?

Just as I'm getting into it, it's over. Hardly worth the effort.

How about you? Still ready for more?

Haha! You're honest!

Sure you're not overdoing it? Well, not that I can help you.

？！

Oh

Well well, this is a good dream! So saving the best one for last, huh?

Besides, talk about being unfair. That one over there is using "the spear of the real me" from the start.

That's unfortunate. Why are you fighting with a hastily-made spear?

I got my reasons. I guess it reminds me of my last summon.

The answer's obvious, but I'll ask anyway. You want me to go easy on you?

You've got to be kidding.

Ah, just as I'd hoped. Impressive, Cú Chulainn, hero of Ulster.

What are you talking about? Well, Mr. "Cú Chulainn" of Ulster?

？！

Well, I guess it's possible. Meeting yourself in a dream. You get that, don't you?

Nice, that's really a good way to put it. Well, shall we do this

Sure! Let's go, Master!

...So it's a draw.

With our Noble Phantasms, it's a miracle we didn't both bite the dust.

I'm impressed. My younger self is quite a tough guy.

My older self isn't too bad either. I'll finish you off next time.

What? That's my line.

？！

Uh... Well, basically, you see.

My skills have improved within the dream. When you wake up, I'm sure it will be of use.

See you, Master. Thanks for the company
