It's not common knowledge, I think. Then again.

Well, Athena was a goddess of Wisdom and War, so if you want to name your assassin doll something, you might as well name her that.

From Nero to Artoria to Mordred to Jeanne to Lakshmibai* to Okita to Grey to two very silly Star Wars nerdettes. A family tree only Merlin can explain.

Because he's the fucking perverted weeb who made it.

*There's a couple forks in this tree that don't lend themselves to text. Plus it'd ruin the joke.

Note that part of that tree is actually a circle. Morgan time-traveled back to the Trojan War, tried to get into Hector's pants, failed, went yandere for him for a while (an awful lot like Medb and Cú, actuallly), time-traveled (on a separate trip, may have been before or after the previous one) to Caesar's invasion of Britain, successfully seduced him, gave birth to Oberon (that Oberon, from Midsummer Night's Dream), and probably introduced the Saberface genes to the Julio-Claudian line in the first place. Nero is both Artoria's distant ancestor and (less-)distant grand-niece.

That's from the actual legends, not Nasu. The original explanation was that "Le Fay" was literal, so she was actually around for the Trojan War and late Roman Republic, but the Renaissance-era retellings retconned into Arthur's natural-born sister, thus making time-travel the only way they could still make sense.

[X] Drink it. You knew what this is but... You trusted Rider not to take advantage of you. You need it now.

... of course. Morgana the Fairy. Geoffrey of Monmouth took inspiration from a roman source describing a Gaulic priestess, so in Nasuverse they'd both be the same person in the eyes of two different authors. Which means she's an Elemental, thus she's going to be hella older than the Pendragons. Hell, Geoffrey even said the Trojans founded Britain before the Anglo-Saxons took over.

A crazy fairy among crazy fairies committing temporal incest because Merlin keeps cock-blocking her. :V

Because they're written by people like us: Degenerate perverts.

As opposed to the insane and implausible idea that two legends and different people were merged together in a later retelling, an explanation Nasuverse has no problems with in other cases?

Nasuverse history seems to be somewhat mutable, at least before the Age of Man fully set in. Astolfo knows he's a fictional character introduced centuries after the fact (debuted in the Renaissance-era Orlando Furioso) but is also genuine friends with Saber Charlemagne in Extella Link (when, by a strict historical reading, Charlie should have no idea who he is).

And Saber Gudao is also the fictional, mythical interpretation of Charles The Great. So he exists in the same set of circumstances as Astolfo.

Morgana Le Fay is a bit... different situation. The 'each author takes their own interpretation' situation.
 
Anyway. How do you feel about swapping our Mystic Code foci? Dog tags with paralysis seem like a good counter for the next time we meet Assassin, for example.
 
Well that's interesting. Sounded like Assassin was ready to quit the war outright. We may yet have succeeded.

Anyway, Brie's doing rough, I suggest we take the assistance.

Also I just want to say that letting Olga go had nothing to do with morality one way or another. It was all about Medb's reaction

I am pissed that Olga left, because she will just go kill more people, and show up to fuck with us at the worst possible moment, she is worthless and incapable of learning from her mistakes, succumbing too much to sunk cost fallacy and magus family bullshit. She is irredeemably awful.

She deserves to die. And I say that knowing full well what it means.

But Brie doesn't deserve to have to be the one who kills her, not like that.

It sucks too because now we only have one command seal.
 
[X] You want to know what happened afterwards. You can force yourself to stay calm. You're just... Overwhelmed. It should be fine now.

Lancelot is a better example. He's another Renaissance-era super-speshul OC donut steel like Astolfo, but explicitly existed in Artoria's Camelot regardless. The main timeline's Saber Artoria was the real Artoria in a Servant body, so the Saber Gudao excuse doesn't apply. The write-up I'm looking at for Camelot/Zero isn't clear whether Rhongomyniad "summoned" the KOTR through Servant summonings or if they were already present and she used mundane means.
 
All this defeatist talk about Olga running away and coming back to bite us in the ass.

It's Nanoha style Befriending, y'all!
We've already established our superior firepower and destroyed her values. The only thing left is to wait for the third confrontation to start speaking about our ideals and the wonders of friendship!

Soon enough, Olga Marie will too fight for the happiness of Medb-chan! :V

Meds: And it's a very talented magus who's been tormented by life and the main villain, while secretly has a longing someone to care about them. Oh, and their Servant is seen as evil but actually a good person screwed by a bunch of power men.
Rin: Saber. Get the jet.

    • [] Drink it. You knew what this is but... You trusted Rider not to take advantage of you. You need it now.

    You stared at the cup in her hand before you took it. You held the cup up and took a few sips before your eyes widened at the taste. You expected to taste alcohol but were met with the distinct flavor of lemon honey tea. Warmth immediately filled your body and coursed through your chest and limbs.

    A shaky breath left your lips as the anxiety and fear of your memories slowly dulled as you lowered the cup. Rider sat by your side as she moved some strands of hair away from your eyes. You were in shock, really... But you felt like you were winding down. You could breathe again and the warmth certainly helped.

    You took a few more sips before you calmed down. Rider took the half full cup and put it back on the nearby desk before turning her gaze back to you. She held your hands as you leaned forward and rested your hand on her shoulder.

    "There, there... Just listen to my voice," Medb whispered in your ear, her voice being so much sweeter than before. You felt like you could listen to it forever... "You're fine now. You're going to be fine."

    "I'm sorry. I'm sorry I said those things. I didn't mean to," you said as you squeezed her hand.

    Rider smiled and stroked your hair, "It's okay. That wasn't you. This drink will last for a few hours so don't wander around too much."

    "Okay," you replied in a weak voice.

    Medb smiled as she wiped your tears, "It's over now. The nightmare's over. You're here with me, okay?"

    "Yes. Thanks, Rider," you nodded as you lowered your head. A thought then struck you through the deep haze made by her mead, "Where are we?"

    "A new place. I had to make sure we wouldn't be tracked down. Archer's attack wasn't enough to fully tear down Hans' base but they did provide some good support to let us escape," Rider explained as she lifted your face by your chin, "You're safe now, okay?"

    "Yeah. I wish I could have helped more," you admitted as you held the hand she had touching your cheek.

    "No. No... You did enough. You've helped me enough. It was good that you held out on your own. I just got beaten up by Assassin just throwing cheese at me... It's embarassing," Medb said as she looked into your eyes.

    "Huh. It's okay. As long as you're safe, I don't care about anything else," you told her as you cracked a weak smile, "Cheese is bad for you, you know?"

    "I know," Rider said as she leaned forward to whisper into your ear, "Then I guess you're pretty bad for me too."

    Your fingers intertwined with your own as you felt her breath on your neck. You felt calm and warm, it must be because of that drink. Medb gently caressed your back as she pressed her lips on your neck.

    It stung.

    .....
    ....
    ...

    You woke up a few hours later feeling better. You looked up at the ceiling before slowly rising up your bed, feeling your head as you tried to see if it was aching. You blinked before you noticed that you were still holding tightly to someone's hand.

    Rider was sleeping beside you with a peaceful look on her face as exhaustion seemed to have caught up with her. You looked down to find yourself fortunately still in your pajamas. You appreciated that she changed you, you didn't want to wake up covered in dry blood.

    Rising up from your bed, you let go of Rider and walked to the bathroom. You felt like freshening up first. You turned the tap on and started washing the crusts on your eyes. Were you crying? You must have. Your eyes felt exhausted somehow.

    You wiped yourself off with the towel before you looked back at the mirror. Your froze.

    "What," you whispered as you looked at the mirror. You lifted your chin to expose your neck to find a faint bruise.

    And it's not just one. It was all over your neck! That's... That's a lot of hickeys.

    [] "RIDER!!!!!!"
    [] You want to melt on the spot. What did she do now?! How- This is too much! You're blushing furiously. You're not something to gnaw on!
    [] Ah. Oh no. There's a lot. It's going be hard hiding these. You can't go out now, you'll live you'd life as a hermit from now on.
    [] Well it could be worse. It could be scratch marks. Very, very questionable scratch marks. You're not sure how you'll retaliate for this one.
