I wonder how confused Mira is by this conversation.

"Watch the slaughter? Is that what you thought made me come out?" the older of the two said, looking down at the child. With her apparent age, there was only one reason that she could be taking part in a Grail War such as this--she had to be a homunculus. No real child would have the abilities and confidence necessary to go along with such a brazen attempt at not only participating in the war but cutting down one's enemies at the first attempt. It also fit with what little knowledge of the Varianbec family Johanna possessed.

But more importantly, it set this Master as one that was completely off limits in a fight. If this was based off of the Fuyuki wars, then its creators would understand the problems inherent in a stationary, vulnerable grail. If such a thing existed, it would have been placed with that Overseer where it would be free from harm. As it was not, then the Grail Vessel could only be a person and with a homunculus before her...

"No, I came just to make sure that no Masters pay the price for entering this conflict without knowing what it entails. Naivety should be punished with failure rather than death. If we could get through this war without a single death, then it could be said that we have seen the Grail War to its intended completion and more; a wish gained at no loss of life and even the losers come out richer for the experience," Johanna continued, sliding down to sit on the rock, one knee raised to serve as a rest, "It would be a more ideal result than the inclusion of Assassin promotes.

"Though we both know that this is impossible, do we not? The minimum body count is one. Such a cruel family, to bring you into this world only to die serving a purpose that you cannot partake in."

Well, things that are not yet revealed are always subject to appeal and possible alteration. :P

Under his armour, another suit of armour. And beneath that, another and so on and so forth.

There was a reason she heard the Master of Assassin part. xD

Something gave the elder magus pause whilst waiting for her reply, and her head tilted for a second. "As abrupt as this might seem, our introductions can wait for a second. An opportunity for you to learn what this war entails has presented itself. Overseer, should the conflict encroach any further upon the church, I would appreciate a warning if you choose to intervene."

Reinforcement: one of the most basic forms of magecraft in existence. Strength, speed, toughness; three attributes that would get the most attention--and, truthfully, the easiest to work with. Yet with a modicum of dedication and considering the issue, it was possible to affect the senses. With something as constantly fraught as a Grail War and away form any major thoroughfares... why would you refrain from enhancing your ability to detect incoming threats? Through sight, scent, or sound, steps had to be taken to address a magus' inherent vulnerability to stealth attacks. Johanna simply favoured hearing; it was useful to know what those who thought themselves out of earshot would say.

The sound of clashing blades so close could only mean that the war had started in earnest. Berserker, the fighting has begun.

The intervening space wasn't so vast by any standard, after pushing aside the heavy doors. With more favourable terrain, an athlete would have no difficulty clearing it with haste--and the basics, the much-maligned basics that had been so forcefully reminded to her--made arriving before things got too exciting possible. No doubt her Servant would be there as well, unless Berserker was somehow more even-tempered than expected... and Assassin's Master would catch up posthaste, if she wanted

The parties involved were an interesting lot. Saber and Rider, without a doubt--though the Servants themselves were hardly quiet in announcing that fact. The Master... as a person, she was unfamiliar, but the family name was something that she knew--American, unsurprisingly given their location, and relatively important despite that. Not anything she had too much experience with, yet it was unsurprising to find them involved in this war.

"Fighting before introductions are even made? Hardly an honourable cast," the tall magus observed, standing atop a somewhat prominent rock.

Just a word of forewarning: you're close enough to the Church that I have enough reason to extricate myself from this temporary paralysis. So another person incoming.

Why right outside.

I'll have to come join in. D:
