What do we do now, Rider?
What now, mad dog?
Tokiomi...
I'll... kill you!
Saber!
We aren't making much progress.
If only we could use Saber's left arm...
Utw
Presents
Will one last miracle come to pass?
あと一度だけ奇跡は起こるだろう
Ato ichido dake kiseki wa okoru darou
A gentle voice paints a twisted future
優しい声で描く歪んだ未来
Yasashii koe de egaku yuganda mirai
For the sake of a world where nobody will cry
もう誰も泣かない世界のために
Mou dare mo nakanai sekai no tame ni
Before reaching the crimson-stained sky
赤く穢された空の何処にも
Akaku kegasareta sora no doko ni mo
My cries and prayers fade and disappear
届かず消える叫びと祈り
Todokazu kieru sakebi to inori
I can go on, abandoning all consolation
慰めは捨てて行ける
Nagusame wa sutete yukeru
The beautiful moonlight shines towards the beginning and vanishes
綺麗な月の光が始まりへと沈み行く
Kirei na tsuki no hikari ga hajimari e to shizumiyuku
Into the distance
その彼方へ
Sono kanata e
I'll continue to reach out as my eyes are gradually closed
閉ざされてく瞳でまだ遠くへ手を伸ばす
Tozasareteku hitomi de mada tooku e te wo nobasu
I believe in your sorrow
君の嘆きを 信じて
Kimi no nageki wo shinjite
Hey, Saber!
This isn't working.
Withdraw!
Don't be ridiculous.
We must stop him here!
But we've exhausted our options.
Fall back for now.
I have an idea.
Listen, everyone.
Regardless of whatever plan we go with, we must first buy some time.
I shall draw him into Ionian Hetairoi.
However, even the combined forces of all my fierce warriors won't be able to destroy that.
Restraining him within the Reality Marble is the most we can do.
What then?
No idea.
Huh?
If I take in a thing of that magnitude, the Reality Marble will only last a few minutes.
You must find a way within that time.
Heroic Spirits...
I want you to find a path to victory.
Hey, boy.
You stay here too.
Hey...
Once I activate the field, I won't know what transpires outside.
Boy, focus your mind and call for me if anything happens.
I will dispatch a messenger.
Saber! Lancer!
I'll leave the rest to you.
Very well.
Such pointless struggling.
Mom!
What?
How about diving headfirst into that mass of filth, mongrel?
After all that talk...
This is all you have up your sleeve?
Is he trying to kill himself?
Kariya.
Think of this as my gift to you.
Intensive Einäscherung.
Die an intensive fiery death.
I-I'll kill... you...
Tokiomi!
Zouken...
What now?
He's buying us time, but if we can't use it to come up with anything, we'll be right back where we started.
Hey, Einzbern...
Got any ideas?
Hey!
Well, um...
How does this work?
Iri?
No, I'm...
I mean...
I see.
You must be Rider's Master.
Perfect.
I wanted to talk to you too.
Who are you?
It doesn't matter.
Caster's disappearance was the work of your Servant, yes?
That's right, I guess.
Question.
When Rider releases his Reality Marble, can he position its contents at a particular location?
To a degree.
Within a hundred meters or so, but it's possible.
Rider should be able to control where it will materialize.
Very well.
I'll wait for the right moment and fire a signal flare then.
Release Caster right under it.
Can you do that?
I can... I think.
Probably.
One more thing.
I need you to relay a message to Lancer.
Tell him Saber's left arm holds an anti-fortress Noble Phantasm.
Huh?
Is something wrong?
Well, he had a message for you.
Something about Saber's left arm being an anti-fortress Noble Phantasm...
Is that true, Saber?
Can it destroy Caster's monster with a single strike?
It can.
However, Lancer.
The weight of my sword is the weight of my pride.
The wound from my battle with you is an honor, not a fetter.
The aid of Diarmuid O'Dyna as a substitute for my left arm is worth ten thousand men.
Well, Saber.
I cannot forgive Caster's actions.
He affirms the despair of those around him and finds joy in spreading terror.
By the vows I swore as a knight, I cannot abide such evil.
Lancer, you mustn't!
Is it Saber who must win this fight? Is it Lancer?
No, it is neither.
What must triumph here is the knight's path of chivalry that we champion.
Is that not so, Heroic Spirit Arturia?
Lancer...
I rest my hopes for victory upon your blade, King of Knights.
I'm counting on you, Saber.
I accept, Lancer.
Upon my sword, I promise you victory!
That's from the legend of King Arthur...
Saber!
Berserker?
What is he...?
You dare turn your back on me, mongrel?
You insult me!
What?!
Saber!
What's the matter with Berserker?!
I regain the use of my left arm, and now this?
A soul naturally seeks pleasure, consciously or not.
He was the only one you ordered Assassin to investigate to such a degree that you could understand those "complicated circumstances".
And this was all due to your unconscious interest.
It's still too soon.
That shaking...
It's a sign Rider's Reality Marble can't hold on much longer.
Rider...
I am Mithrenes, of the Hetairoi.
I have come as the king's ears.
I-I want him to wait for the signal, and then release Caster from the Reality Marble at the indicated point.
Can he do that?
It's possible, but we're running out of time.
Our forces within the Reality Marble cannot restrain that sea monster much longer.
I know!
I know that!
Damn it!
Damn that Berserker.
Can't we do anything about him?
I will go.
Lancer...
That's enough, mad warrior!
It's all or nothing!
Archer...
That's it!
Right under that!
As you wish.
Honestly...
What took so long?
Now, Saber. Show me.
I shall judge the true worth of your brilliance as a Heroic Spirit.
The light...
Her sword shines, a dream that all warriors scattered in battle, past, present and future,
hold and mournfully exalt as their final moments approach.
She carries their will as her pride, bidding them to remain steadfast in their loyalty.
Now, the undefeated king sings aloud the name of the miracle she holds in her hands.
Its name is...
Excalibur!
This light...
There's no doubt.
This was the brilliance that blessed Jeanne and me with joy and bliss...
What...
...have I...
Did you see that, King of Conquerors?
That was Saber's brilliance.
Do you still refuse to accept her, having witnessed light of such magnitude?
That light comes from her having taken all her people's hopes upon herself.
Its brightness is what makes it tragic.
Especially when you consider the one bearing that burden is just a dreaming little girl.
The girl never had a happy childhood, never fell in love,
but was cursed by her ideals and ended up this way.
It is too painful to look upon.
Isn't that what makes her so beautiful?
Her dreams were too much for her.
I imagine they destroyed the dreamer herself in the end.
The tears of lamentation she shed during her final moments must have been quite sweet to the taste.
You and I just can't see eye to eye, Babylonian King of Heroes.
Oh?
So you finally realized?
Then what will you do, Rider?
Will you let your steel give shape to your rage?
I would like that very much,
but I have exerted myself too much tonight to face an opponent like you.
Of course, I would have to fight back should you refuse to allow me passage.
I don't mind.
You may flee, King of Conquerors.
It wouldn't satisfy me to destroy you at anything less than your full strength.
So, you're wounded yourself from being shot down by that black thing.
I repay provocation with death.
We'll decide this next time, King of Heroes.
Our battle will be the one that determines the winner of this Grail War.
I wouldn't be so sure.
I have yet to decide whether only one individual is worthy of receiving my treasure, Rider.
She is a fool who reaches for dreams beyond human attainment.
I, Gilgamesh, am the only one in this Heaven and Earth with the right to love her in her destruction.
Ephemeral and brilliant one, fall to my embrace.
That is my decision.

Come!
