[It's a scene that should be familiar to anyone who knows of the Holy Grail War- a summoning circle, a hand with command seals outstretched, the light fading to reveal a figure within it...]
[But something seems just a little off.]
[It's not so terribly odd that the master appears to be a rather slight, waif-like young thing- there have been people involved before who looked even younger and more delicate, and they were still powerful competitors. But something about the young mage's expression is strange, dreamily staring into the distance as though she's looking through the world more than she's looking at it.]
[Also, she's wearing a silk bathrobe at two PM, but that just might be mage fashion.]
[The surroundings don't seem to be particularly warlike, either- it's a cozy little attic above a shop, decorated with an eclectic mix of random keepsakes. The effect is a bit like a magpie's nest, if the magpie in question really liked colorful knitwear.]
[Whatever her oddities, she seems content to wait patiently for this newly-summoned Servant to get her bearings.]
