[i]"I would recommend against doing that, Master,"[/i] Lancer said as her Master talked about visiting the Church. [i]"Rider's Master is a shrewd adversary. It's all but certain that he set his familiars all over the city, especially the Church. We would be taking a pointless risk to go there on our own. Furthermore, the fact that you were able to summon a Servant and form a contract with them is proof enough that you are allowed to take part in this ritual. Acquiescence to the Church's demands is not necessary, but if you still wish to do so, I recommend that you send a courier — especially an unrelated party — carrying a message that does not disclose any important information. That should be enough to satisfy the Overseer if they know anything about their role in this conflict,"[/i] she said as she observed her Master set up the computer for a video conference. The silver-haired Lancer had an impressed look in her face as she admired the device, especially its ability to reproduce letters and symbols instantly, even though no one would be able to see her expression while she was in her spirit form.

As soon as her Master was done with her talk, Lancer materialized her physical body before the camera. Before she spoke even a single word, she drew a few runes in the air, producing a bounded field that isolated their room from the outside word. She didn't fear the idea of others finding about her identity, but betraying the privacy of her Master's family relations was a completely different matter.

"I'm pleased to meet you, Madam. I'm Brynhildr, Queen of Isenlant and the oldest of the Allfather's Chooser of the Slain. However, for this Holy Grail War, I have been summoned as a Lancer-class Servant under the command of your daughter. You can rest assured that I'll not allow any harm to come to her, even if it costs my life to do so," Lancer said, introducing herself in a formal way.
