Prologue: A Mysterious Game and a Travelling Young Boy

TTGs are the new hotness in Chaldea right now, Senpai. We should investigate this matter ourselves.

？！

Oh, yes, I'm sorry. It's an abbreviation for "tabletop games."

The database says that while TTGs encompass a wide variety of genres, including dice, cards, and role-playing, they typically refer to board games, which are the kind that Chaldea is currently caught up in.

While I haven't played many of them myself, I do know that some of the most famous board games include chess, shogi, go, and checkers.

In particular, board games have a very long history, with some of them dating back to ancient Egypt, Mesopotamia, and the Roman Empire.

Y-yes, I would be very interested to give them a shot, but...

Really? Then you'll have to introduce me to some of your favorites.

...But not right now, I'm afraid.

？！

As you can see, the cafeteria has kind of been taken over by other avid TTG fans, some of whom are prone to rather, um, heated disagreements...

I just turned the hourglass over. Now you have to solve the puzzle before it runs out of

Ubongo...

You solved it already, chirp!?

Gnn...!

Are you kidding me!? No way! This really isn't my thing!

Don't worry, it's easy. Just move this piece over here, and

Hey! No helping!

Hwaaah!

"Hwah"?

What kinda weird battle cry is that!? Can't you just go with "Yarrr!" like a normal pirate!?

I wasn't being weird! I just couldn't stop my aura from exploding out of me any longer!

I get it. You got the prompt for building up power, right?

Exactly!!! I knew you would understand, my brother from another mother!

Wait. You just gave away the answer.

I guess all he really wants is attention.

Hmm, I'm still not feeling this sound charade game. If I'd wanted to perform, I would've gone into showbiz.

'Course, I don't mind putting on a little razzle-dazzle if it helps move merchandise, but that ain't what's going on here.

How 'bout a different game? We got any where you get a chance to strike it rich?

I believe this offers something like that. It's all about setting sail for new lands in search of gold.

Perfect! Now that's what I'm talking about! Let's go get ourselves some treasure!

You're on, Spaniard! No way I'm letting you win this one!

Really? It's over, just like that? You're not even gonna comment on my heartfelt performance?

...Psych! Nobody beats Blackbeard in a treasure hunt!

Okay, so this is our field of vision... And this is the incidence orientation modifier... So, since we're inside the atmosphere, this changes to... Huh?

...I don't get it. Any of it.

But I do kind of like the way it hunches down when it's in hovering mode.

Am I understanding this? Are we really about to fly off the map without ever getting to fight a single battle?

I think this game might be a little too realistic.

I mean, if not even we Valkyries can manage to get off the ground with these systems...

I can't believe things like inertia management and three-dimensional movement are giving us so much trouble in this game. In real life, they're so intuitive that we don't even have to think about them...

You guys are too hung up on close-quarter dogfights. The flashy Circus action's gonna be in midair combat!

It won't matter what kind of fighting it is if we can't get our units to go or aim where they're supposed to!

I'm gonna try hunching down too... How's this? Am I doing it? ...Wait. Ouch! This really does a number on your lower back!

Is that shogi piece supposed to be me?

NitoI mean, Medjed, was it?

Oh, now that you mention it, you do look just like this ghost piece, don't you?

So? It's just a coincidence, right? Or what, have you actually been a ghost this whole time or something?

Insolence! How dare you!

Hey! What's the big idea, flipping over our board!? I had her right where I wanted her!

This is divine justice at work!

You're pulling the divine justice card on ME!? You've got guts. I'll give you that!

Now, now, there's no need for dramatics here. Why don't you join us for the next game, Nitouh, Medjed?

I think you'll find it has a lot in common with the ancient game Queen Nefertari used to enjoy.

Huh!? O-oh no, I couldn't dare do anything so... I mean, very well then! I won't lose!

Oho, so you want to settle this on the game board, do you? Fine by me!

Hehe. Then let's go ahead and put everything back where it belongs, shall we?

(I think it'd be best if I kept the fact that I was one move away from checkmate to myself.)

(Fidgeting nervously)

Wow, I had no idea there were so many variations on XiangqiI mean Chinese chessmade after it came to China from India.

Just look at all these adorable animal pieces! I especially love the giraffe and the chick!

Hmm. I can certainly see the sense in sending lions and elephants off to war...

But a chick? As in a baby chicken!? Are you even trying to defeat me!?

(Fidgeting nervously)

By the way... You there. Why do you keep fidgeting like that!?

Eep! GrandmSister Nite-Brite!?

Hm? Tamamo Cat? Is that you back there behind Yu-Yu?

Sure is!

Ulp. What is the meaning of this? Are you trying to incur my wrath!?

I-it's not like that at all, Sister, I promise!

Do you see Master over there so clearly yearning to join us?

I decided that if I saw even the slightest sign that Master might begin to lose...

I would put Tamamo Cat up on the board to ruin the game for good!

Oh no you don't! There will be no cats on MY game's board!

I'm gonna ruin the game even if it costs me Master's life!

Come forth, Nikogale Holmes the Great Chimera!

...Did you just stick Nikola Tesla's right arm and Sherlock Holmes's left arm on Florence Nightingale's body, Stolfo?

Pretty perfect, huh!

That's, uh...not the word I would have chosen...

Aww, why not? Come on, you know how Nightingale's also known as the White Angel (read: Tyrant), don't you?

You called?

She's actually here!?

Does someone require treatment?

Nnn, not exactly. We need full-blown operations.

And, um...amputations, at that...

Not to worry. I have plenty of experience with those. Now, where are the patients that require amputation? Is it you?

What? No!

It's Tesla and Holmes! (Said without a moment's hesitation)

Are you nuts!?

I'll begin the operation at once.

...

Don't you dare go with her, Stolfo!

C'mon, let me go! You're gonna make me miss the best part!

This isn't a joke! Your little stunt is about to lead to unimaginable disaster! Again!

Hehe, then shouldn't you be sticking around? How else are you gonna make sure justice is served?

Well, uh... I would, except... Nightingale kind of scares me...

I must say, it's been delightful engaging in a battle of wits with you again, old chap. Though, of course, I doubt this battle will be settled anytime soon, given the usual pace of a chess game.

Only if one assumes neither of us will make any mistakes.

A fair point. Who can be said not to make the occasional mistake or have the odd accident? Even so, we are talking about YOU here.

Is that your way of saying this will be a protracted and evenly matched battle of wits? While that does indeed sound most engaging

Excuse me, Mr. Holmes. It's time for your emergency treatment.

Treatment? Perhaps there's been some misunderstanding? I'm quite sure I've been more moderate with my usage as of late...

I'll be happy to hear any concerns you may have... AFTER your treatment has been administered!

Just a moment. I refuse to go anywhere without Watson, my primary physician, present!

Farewell, Holmes. I'll see your final moments put to some good use in my memoirs. They will doubtless stir readers' curiosity and make me a bundle.

How dare you put out such a vile bootleg, Professor!? Whatever you do, you'd better not publish it under Watson's name!

...There you have it, Senpai. It's basically like a TTG version of Gehenna, or maybe a chaotic coliseum.

If you get too close without taking proper precautions, the constant invitations are liable to drive you mad and rob you of your ability to make sound judgmen

Ooh, are you losing your way here too, Ma-chan? Don't try to resist. Give in to the dork side.

Come on in! We're always happy for new blood around here!

I would be happy to be your opponent in any manner of game. Please, right this way.

Oh, to be clear, when I speak of games now, I refer to the analog variety rather than the digital one.

Video games are still wonderful, of course, but there is also a great deal to be said for competing face-to-face with wooden pieces you can feel with your own hands!

What do you say, Master?

Right! It's just like they say: everything in moderation!

Sure, that's what everyone says. At first.

Good thing I stocked up on snacks and juice ahead of time. C'mon, you can stay up all night with me and help me figure out this new mystery game I've been

I had a feeling you'd say that!

Wonderful. Then let's see what you've got.

Sweet! Then we're all set to do some serious gaming! And as luck would have it, I just happen to have acquired a copy of a new mystery game that

？！

Wait, I'm sorry. Did you say "mystery game"?

Graaaaaah!

Huh? Was that...Edison? What's going on?

？！

No problem! Me and my game will still be here later.

Thank you, Osakabehime!

This makes no sense! How could my direct current and I have possibly lost!?

Hahahahahaha! Now do you understand, you mangy plebeian!? You now face the unvarnished historical truth!

？！

Oh, hello, Fujimaru. You picked a great time to show up.

It sounded like there was some sort of problem here. Did they just finish a game?

Things seem to be very tense around here...

Don't worry. It's just business as usual.

You know how Edison loves to stay on top of trends, right? In this case, it led to him trying his hand at a TTG.

Still, everything was fine up until Tesla challenged him to the worst kind of game possible...

What sort of game?

It's called "Current Wars." Of all the games they could have played, it had to be one that recreates their own real-life attempts to drag each other down...

I see... That definitely doesn't sound like the kind of game where they could settle their differences in a single round.

Damn half-witted eccentric! How dare you employ such deviousness to drag direct current's good name through the mud!?

Don't blame me. The weaker option will always give way to the stronger one. It is only natural. This was inevitable, no matter how many simulations one chooses to run.

And they have proclaimed loud and clear that alternating current is civilization's best friend! So, now that it has been proven to be the right path to take humanity to the stars and beyon

Excuse me, Mr. Tesla, but it's time for your operation.

Hm? What's this about? Do you need electricity for it? And by electricity, I of course mean alternating current.

No. All I need is your right arm.

That's an oddly specific request... But, very well. My lightning and I shall be there to help you at once!

...W-well, I don't know what that was all about, but at least we don't have to worry about things getting out of hand now.

True, though I also can't help but worry about Tesla a little...

Don't bother worrying about that half-wit! Just be glad he's finally gone! I know I am!

On a different subject, I have to say I don't care for these board game things. In fact, I consider them an outright eyesore.

Only because you've not actually won one, right?

How could these things possibly be any good if they don't let the obviously correct choice prevail even once!?

Yes, yes, let's just leave it at that. I swear, I'd love to know where you get your confidence from.

At any rate, it's abundantly clear that these newfangled games are a complete waste of time!

I'm with you. The only thing worse than a game played alone is one you have to play with other people.

Disagreements are meant to be resolved on the battlefield. Bringing them home is just crazy.

Oh great. Now we've got this guy. He seems like he'd turn every game he plays into some kind of death match...

T-true, he certainly isn't the kind of person I expected to show up here. I think he may only add fuel to the proverbial fire.

Wonderful! I don't know who you are, friend, but I'm delighted to find a like-minded compatriot!

You want to add me to your friends list? Request denied. Anyway, why don't you tell them how it really is?

All games are meaningless diversions. They're nothing but pathetic time killers for hypocrites. No matter how much you play them, they'll never leave you with anything of value.

They're practically the devil himself tempting you away from focusing on things that really matter, and they should all be regulated out of existence.

That's what you really want to say, isn't it?

Hmm, I don't know. That might be going a bit too far, even for me...

There we go. Let's just leave it at that for now, shall we? Besides, plenty of things out there have more value than you might expect.

It's not like ONLY the things you can see and touch, or that endure forever, have value in this world!

Some people find games to be the most fulfilling thing life has to offer, while others find fulfillment by living life as though it were a game. There's nothing wrong with any of that.

For example, Edison, did you know some people refer to your and Nikola's engineering battles as a game played between geniuses?

Gnnn... Easy for them to say!

Now I see... So that's why there's even a board game based on their conflict.

So TTGs offer people an opportunity to pit their wits against another's, pushing each other to greater heights than they could reach on their own.

If that's true, it doesn't seem right to just do away with them all and say they're a waste of time.

You said it! I couldn't agree more!

Da Vinci!

There's nothing at all wrong with games. In fact, they're great at getting people to practice thinking things through and taking calculated risks.

But, as in all things, moderation is key.

I'm glad you asked. We've kind of got something of a bizarre phenomenon on our hands.

Something pretty odd, as it turns out.

？！

In general, I'm on board with that.

Da Vinci!

There's nothing at all wrong with games. In fact, they're great at getting people to practice thinking things through and taking calculated risks.

But, as in all things, moderation is key.

I'm glad you asked. We've kind of got something of a bizarre phenomenon on our hands.

Something pretty odd, as it turns out.

？！

Is this about that mysterious new game?

Mysterious game? Now that you mention it, I do think I recall someone mentioning something along those lines...

Yeah, someone left it just lying around here. No idea who owns it or even how to play it, since it doesn't come with a manual. All we know for sure is it comes in five, count 'em, FIVE boxes!

It appears to be a standard board game that has been customized with an assortment of house rules, so there is nothing stopping us from playing it.

I'm sensing something kind of ominous about it.

Hmm. A board game that spontaneously appeared on its own, huh... Bizarre, but fascinating.

Have you all already played it?

Mochicourse. I mean, what's the point of discovering a new game if you're not going to try it?

Hell, the mechanics are so crazy deep that we were about to stay up all night trying them all out!

I can understand being curious about the unknown, but I'm a little concerned at how...engrossing it's proven to be.

？！

I think you'd better see for yourself.

Come with me.

I can understand being curious about the unknown, but I'm a little concerned at how...engrossing it's proven to be.

？！

I think you'd better see for yourself.

Come with me.

Oh boy, it's plundering time! Your lumber is mine now, Maria!

How could you, Amadeus!? You didn't have to use lumber! You could have made do with bricks just as easily, you big jerk!

That's the closest Marie has ever come to using profanity...! Something definitely isn't right here, Senpai! They all look as though they've been possessed!

Hey, guys? How many days has it been since you got any sleep?

Hey, guys? How many days has it been since you got any sleep?

If you're talking about how much we need to sleep, that comes down to personal preference...

But if you're talking about our magical energy reserves, I think we all still have plenty to spare.

I understand how you feel. It's all too easy to lose track of everything when one is caught up in a game.

Must be nice to be so oblivious. Or maybe the word I'm looking for is "greedy."

Well, what are we waiting for? Let's all shut ourselves in and take the plunge into this game's world.

Uh-oh. If I pursue this any further, I don't know if there'll be any coming back. But, then again...I can practically hear the Mystic calling to me!

They all look like they're having the time of their lives... (Gulp)

Senpai, do you think...maybe we could join them, just for a round or two?

Come ooon. Join uuus.

TTGs are awesooome. Trust meee.

Nooo! They've all become completely addicted!

This game is far too dangerous to leave unregulated! I'll have to put out a Presi-King executive order banning it forever!

Yeah, you don't have that kind of authority here, and even if you did, the Heroic Spirits would never obey it. We're gonna have to figure out another solution to this problem...

Yeah, you don't have that kind of authority here, and even if you did, the Heroic Spirits would never obey it. We're gonna have to figure out another solution to this problem...

...

Huh? Senpai, do you recognize that child over there? I don't think I've seen him before...

...

.........Me?

？！

.........Far away.

？！

That's strange. It almost feels like there's some kind of...lag in his responses.

He came from inside that game.

Um... Did you say from inside the game?

Yes, I did. I saw him come out myself.

The game on the table jumped up all of a sudden, then the boy came tumbling right out!

Huh. First a mystery game, now a mystery boy. And if I'm not mistaken, he looks like he's a Servant, too.

.........A game?

......You mean, the forest? Or......the desert?

Forest? Desert? What do you think he's talking about, Senpai?

......I don't think so. That's why......got lost.

Lost? So, you're a lost Servant?

？！

...No, not me. I know the way. I'm not going to get lost.

But she's different. She's always been lost.

She never goes to the forest. She never drops to the desert. She just stays alone in the city, surrounded by people.

That's why I came here, from where she is.

？！

But you...are qualified. So you are...a special case.

What is it you have there? You've been holding onto it this whole time, haven't you?

......

Why are you hiding it? Is it a secret? Is it something bad?

...No.

Then why won't you let me see it?

...Because you need to be...qualified.

Qualified? Is that why Fujimaru can see it, but I can't?

Qualifications, huh... Sounds like he's talking about Master aptitude. That would explain it.

Means the new kid really is a Servant then. (He sure doesn't look like a hero to me...)

So, does this mean you're choosing Senpai to be your Master?

...A...Master?

You don't know what a Master is? Well that's strange. Why did you come here, anyway?

...I'm still in the middle of a journey. Which is...exactly why I...

Hey, mister? Would you look at this?

？！

Oho! This is exquisitely made.

Let me see! I want to see, too!

......

Hmph! How come Edison can see it, but I can't!? You're so mean!

Because he's allowed...to see it.

Oh?

He's the one who led me to the stars. He's the one who set me on my journey.

Aha! I've got it! I know what your True Name is now!

You...remember me?

But of course! You're Voyager!

...That's right. That is what some people called me.

I knew it! You're Voyager, the unmanned space probe! Your launch into the outer reaches of our solar system was one of the most heroic feats humanity has ever accomplished!

Voyager... That's what they used to call people who explore the unknown on ships, right? But you're the actual ship?

...Yes. I'm a ship. Although... I can't carry any passengers.

A space probe!? So, you're a Servant of an inanimate object?

I mean, I know there have been other Servants who came about when the concepts of certain man-made creations became Heroic Spirits, but

Yes, exactly! People really do come up with all sorts of lovely dreams, don't they?

It just goes to show how many people saw Voyager here as a true hero. Personally, I couldn't be prouder.

He began his grand adventure in the summer of 1977, when he embarked on a journey across the sea of stars.

In fact, his voyage even continues today, using the gravitational pull of passing planets to slingshot himself beyond the heliosphere...

What an amazing accomplishment! And even now, his ultimate destination is still being updated! Why, your journey continues to expand humanity's map of the universe even as we speak!

...I'm not really sure what you're talking about.

I see. So you're like a Pseudo-Servant that's a record of both the past and currently ongoing phenomena.

Pseudo-Servant...?

Essentially, you're the embodiment of people's aspirations to reach outer space. You're the hope for a brighter future, a guide for all humanity, and the crystallized essence of the time when people believed in unhindered progress all rolled into one.

Would you mind if I took a look at your treasure too? It must really be something special.

......

Aww, come on. Don't tell me you care more about your pledge to the Stars and Stripes than you do the Renaissance's uomo universale?

Now I see. So you're rather like a Pseudo-Servant.

Pseudo-Servant...?

Essentially, you're the embodiment of people's aspirations to reach outer space. You're the hope for a brighter future, a guide for all humanity, and the crystallized essence of the time when people believed in unhindered progress all rolled into one.

As one of the Pioneers of the Stars myself, I have nothing but respect for you. So, would you mind if I took a look at your treasure too?

......

Aww, come on. Don't tell me you care more about your pledge to the Stars and Stripes than you do the Renaissance's uomo universale?

I can see why you'd be proud, Edison. It was the U.S. that came up with the Voyager plan, after all...

Hahaha, of course it was! My homeland has always been at the forefront of progress and innovation!

That being said, you yourself said you were still in the middle of your journey, Voyager. So what are you doing here?

And why did you come out of a board game? Don't try to deny it. I saw the whole thing.

Is it 'cause you decided to end the game for good? If so, I wouldn't mind helping you out.

...I... ...I...

I...

That's...the game piece he was holding onto. I think he wants you to take it, Senpai.

You want to play this game? I'm afraid it's too late for that now. You'll just have to wait until tomorrow.

......

Well look at you scowling back. Seems you mean business.

So what is it you want? You trying to challenge us? Lure us in?

......

That's enough for now, Emiya. He's obviously just exhausted. Come on, Voyager, I'll show you the way to my workshop.

......

It's okay. There's nothing to be afraid of. I'm just going to run some tests on you, that's all.

Oh no! There's a bad person doing bad things here!

Oh, stop it. This is well within the scope of my operations as Chaldea's technical advisor. Honestly, I'd love to bring back the mystery game and take a look at that, too...

That's enough for now, Emiya. He's obviously just exhausted. Come on, Voyager, I'll show you the way to my workshop.

......

It's okay. There's nothing to be afraid of. I'm just going to run some tests on you, that's all.

Oh no! There's a bad person doing bad things here!

Oh, stop it. This is well within the scope of my operations as Chaldea's technical advisor. Honestly, I'd love to bring back the mystery game and take a look at that, too...

...but something tells me they're not gonna be putting it down anytime soon.

Be extra careful with him, all right? Voyager there is the pride and joy of all humanity, you know.

Don't worry, I'm well aware.

......

What is it, kid? If you got something to say, spit it out.

You might be a Heroic Spirit, but it still only takes a second for an idea to die on the vine. Especially for you idealistic types.

...I...

...

Well, good night, everyone. Sweet dreams.

I want to go where she is

...but something tells me they're not gonna be putting it down anytime soon.

Be extra careful with him, all right? Voyager there is the pride and joy of all humanity, you know.

Don't worry, I'm well aware.

......

You might be a Heroic Spirit, but it still only takes a second for an idea to die on the vine. Especially for you idealistic types.

...I...

...

Well, good night, everyone. Sweet dreams.

I want to go where she is

Voyager certainly is a mysterious boy, isn't he?

He clearly has a will of his own...but he talks as though there's a constant time barrier getting in between us.

...I also noticed he kept looking directly at you, Senpai.

？！

No, I think you made the right choice there, Senpai. Da Vinci was indirect about it, but she warned us to be careful around him.

There's still a lot we just don't know about Voyager, after all.

But...it did pain me to have to refuse.

He looked so earnest... I can't imagine that all he wants is to just play a game.

I wonder what he was trying to tell us...

Hopefully Da Vinci will be able to figure out the lag issue in her workshop.

Right. It seemed like it was bothering him a lot.

Absolutely.

？！

Senpai, come quick! It's the Servants!

They've all gone missing!

Given the cafeteria's state of disarray, I can only imagine they must have simply disappeared while they were still caught up in their all-night game night.

Hey there, Fujimaru. I'm afraid it's just as bad as it looks.

All the Servants who were having a blast in here last night are nowhere to be seen.

？！

Far as I can tell, they made a Spiritron dive to a different phase of existence in something strangely similar to a Rayshift.

It seems they were trapped inside a board game. Specifically, that mysterious new one.

A game that traps Servants...! I think I remember something like that happening before!

I've been trying to contact the trapped Servants, but so far, no, uh, dice. And I doubt they'll be able to make it back on their own, either.

So yes, as Mash said, it looks like they've all been trapped inside this game.

Hey there, Fujimaru. I'm afraid it's just as bad as it looks.

So yes, as Mash said, it looks like they've all been trapped inside this game.

Oh my! So they all got so caught up in that game they've fallen head over heels for itor, well, into it!

I knew it! I knew we should have banned all games for good!

You had the right idea. You just didn't act on it soon enough. But hey, this works out nicely.

Now that all those lazy Servants are gone, Chaldea's overall ability to plan and execute has gone way up.

Right! We need to bring everyone back as soon as possible! But...how?

It's not a routine. I'm just saying what everyone's thinking.

Still, a job's a job. If the objective's to save them, then that's what I'll do.

？！

...

...I can go. Want to...go with me?

Voyager!

Oh yeah, I haven't mentioned that yet, have I? Voyager here's a Foreignera visitor from another world. And according to eyewitness testimony, he came from inside this very game.

Oh yeah, I haven't mentioned that yet, have I? Voyager here's a Foreignera visitor from another world. And according to eyewitness testimony, he came from inside this very game.

It's true. I saw him myself.

Voyager... Does this mean you can take us inside the game?

...If you want to come with me... ...I'm sure I can take you.

？！

I see... That sounds like a kind of contract.

And you did say last night that Senpai was qualified.

So you meant that he was qualified to go inside this mysterious game, as one of its players.

...I still don't know what you mean by "game," but this place is complicated, and dangerous, and kind of fun.

It's also where we'll find her.

Come on, let's go. Here.

？！

Let's go. Together.

？！

I'm glad. You're...the kind of person I thought you were, lone Master of Chaldea.

A golden light's surrounding Senpai and Voyager! They're both glowing and floating in the air!

Let me ask you something.

Are we...friends?

？！

Then let's go find her.

Wait! Please, take me with you, too!

I can't just sit back and do nothing. I have to go after everyone, too.

As Voyager's de facto legal guardian, I too have a responsibility to come along and ensure your safety!

...Well, I can't let you run off with nothing but a couple of Casters for protection. All right, let's see what kind of nonsense we get up to this time...

I'll stay here. Someone's gotta make sure we have a way to stay in touch, after all. All right guys, buon viaggio!

I'll stay here. Someone's gotta make sure we have a way to stay in touch, after all. All right guys, buon viaggio!

...You have a lot of friends, don't you?

She used to, too. But now, she's all alone.

？！

You'll see what I mean...once you meet her yourself...
