The professor and I examined her Spirit Origin graph, and it seems her skills were illegally modified.

Father-Daughter Bond, the skill she uses to fight off the evil god's influence, was temporarily weakened, and in exchange, her Item Construction skill was significantly enhanced.

[lr]Long, long ago, Apollo, god of the Sun and the arts, had fallen deeply in love yet again; this time, with a human.
[k]

Her name was Leucothoe. As the daughter of Orchamus, king of Persia, she was one of the most beautiful women in the world.

But, although Apollo yearned deeply for Leucothoe,[sr]he already had a lover:

Though quite beautiful in her own right, she first despaired upon learning that Apollo had lost interest in her, then grew mad with envy.

Shortly thereafter, Clytie began filling King Orchamus's ears with all manner of vile stories about his daughter, with no regard for the truth of her tales.
[k]

Enraged, Orchamus called Leucothoe before him and had her put to death.

Apollo's heart broke in his grief, but even with Leucothoe gone, he never returned to Clytie's side.

From then on, love would forever be beyond Clytie's grasp.

Yes, that was spot-on. Thanks, Mash.
[k]

＠Nemo
When we first met Van Gogh, her flower girl motif almost immediately reminded me of Clytie, the water nymph who had a falling out with Apollo.
[k]


＠Nemo
The flower she becomes at the end of her story is called a heliotrope, which means something like, “to always face the sun.”
[k]

＠Nemo
However, later retellings often depict her turning into a sunflower instead.
[k]

＠Nemo
Of course, the Van Gogh we know also uses sunflowers prominently in a variety of ways, but so did Van Gogh the painter.
[k]

＠Nemo
He often used sunflowers in his paintings to represent the sun's warmth. In fact, some of his best-known work is actually a series of paintings titled “Sunflowers.”
[k]

[charaFace A 5]

On top of that, both our Van Gogh and the painter Van Gogh tended toward self-destruction.

True. Vincent van Gogh was very intelligent, but he also struggled to manage his passions, which sometimes led to him harming himself.

＠Mash
While Clytie's story definitely shows how unrequited love can make one do foolish things...
[k]

＠Mash
...I think the fact that her intense regrets made her turn into a flower could also be seen as her need to punish herself.
[k]

[charaFace B 7]

When you think about it, for two Heroic Spirits with different backgrounds, and even genders, Van Gogh and Clytie do have a lot in common.

For one thing, further analysis shows us that she has a high ranking of Divinity, something you rarely see in Servants from modern eras.
[k]

＠Nemo
At first I thought that was just because she's a Foreigner, but if she's actually a nymph directly descended from titans, that would explain it much better.
[k]

＠Nemo
Yet despite that, her memories are all Vincent van Gogh's, rather than Clytie's.

[charaFace F 8]
＠Scáthach-Skadi
When these gods set about making the Heroic Spirit we know as Van Gogh...
[k]

[charaFace F 0]
＠Scáthach-Skadi
...it must have been for the purpose of invading your world[line 2]that is, modern-day Earth.
[k]

＠Scáthach-Skadi
The way from the outer to the inner, and from void to reality, is long and treacherous. It is not the sort of path that can be crossed in a single leap.
[k]

＠Scáthach-Skadi
Indeed, even the strongest of gods could die a sudden, ignominious death if they were to stumble in the wrong spot.
[k]

[charaFace F 5]
＠Scáthach-Skadi
So they must have sought a place they could use as a foothold into your world, a bridgehead or outpost of sorts.
[k]

＠Scáthach-Skadi
They found one in Void Space. It is a completely unobservable zone, both next-door neighbor and distant destination to Reality Space, separated only by a thin wall of recognition.

[charaFace F 0]
＠Scáthach-Skadi
At any rate, we now know that their plan was to send a Heroic Spirit to Void Space on an expedition to discover more of the yet unknown paradise.
[k]

＠Scáthach-Skadi
To do this, they summoned Van Gogh to the void, where she proceeded to call Hokusai here and wait for us to arrive.
[k]

＠Scáthach-Skadi
They clearly already have a means of accessing Void Space, yet instead of coming here directly, they chose to send a Heroic Spirit in their place...
[k]

＠Scáthach-Skadi
I cannot profess to know what led to that decision, but given what we know of their goal, certainly their chosen Heroic Spirit must be capable of creating the base of operations they would need.
[k]


＠Scáthach-Skadi
Furthermore, if we think back on what Van Gogh has accomplished thus far, we can surmise that she was given three duties to fulfill.
[k]

[charaFace F 5]
＠Scáthach-Skadi
One: requisition local personnel. Two: create a local base. And three: deify the requisitioned personnel.

＠Scáthach-Skadi
That's correct, Osakabe. I expect the cost of summoning Heroic Spirits to the void must be too great for them to amass an army that way.
[k]

＠Scáthach-Skadi
So they must have thought to take advantage of our Servant resources and our access to Void Space, which they've done quite well.
[k]

＠Scáthach-Skadi
In answering Van Gogh's call, Hokusai developed a madness of her own, warping her skills and making her amenable to the Outer Gods' desires.
[k]

＠Scáthach-Skadi
Thus, once she had successfully disguised herself and stowed away aboard the Nautilus, the Outer Gods had everyone they needed.
[k]

＠Scáthach-Skadi
Just as they planned, Hokusai transformed Void Space into a sea, and went on to paint trenches, battleships, and other grand works into existence.
[k]

[charaFace F 5]
＠Scáthach-Skadi
Had we not stopped her, she may have eventually succumbed to her madness completely and painted a temple for these evil gods that they could use for their outpost.
[k]

＠Scáthach-Skadi
I do not know how they planned to mount an assault on Reality Space from there...
[k]

＠Scáthach-Skadi
...but if nothing else, I expect we would have been forced to give up the Paper Moon in order to stop them.
[k]

＠Scáthach-Skadi
And that, of course, would have put an end to any hope we had of restoring Proper Human History.
[k]

？1：...

[charaFace F 1]
＠Scáthach-Skadi
Hehe, now, now, none of that. This may sound strange coming from me, but now that we have come this far...

Indeed. That is no doubt one reason they chose Van Gogh. But I suspect their true aim lies elsewhere.
[k]

[charaFace F 5]
＠Scáthach-Skadi
Van Gogh's Noble Phantasm, The Starry Night, is a painting capable of swallowing the very world with its alternate depiction of reality. It can transform Foreigners into gods, and spread madness to all who gaze upon it.
[k]

＠Scáthach-Skadi
So once the Void Space temple was complete, they must have planned on her using her Noble Phantasm to deify the other Foreigners.
[k]

＠Scáthach-Skadi
No doubt that is the final phase of their plan[line 2]the grand mechanism through which these evil gods meant to descend upon Earth.

Vincent van Gogh would never succumb to madness[line 2]that is, the Outer Gods' influence. He would sooner take his own life.
[k]

＠Scáthach-Skadi
This must have been a great conundrum for the Outer Gods. The Noble Phantasm they desired above all others was wielded only by Heroic Spirit who would never obey them.

[charaFace F 5]
＠Scáthach-Skadi
So they hatched a horrific plan: they would create their own patchwork Heroic Spirit who would meet their needs.

They thought, “What if we were to take Vincent van Gogh's memories and talent, and give them to Clytie instead?”

But I will say this. We're agreed that she can't kill herself no matter how much she wants to, right?
[k]

＠Lambda
That means, now she's disappeared, she must be running around lost and desperate at being unable to use her last resort.
[k]

＠Lambda
The fact that she gave up on the only way left to make her wish come true by having someone else kill her may even be a sign that her madness has reached its peak.

We all need to be aware that Van Gogh is only one step away from entering her final, most dangerous phase.

If you want to save her from that fate, then you'll have to rack your brains to come up with a plan that's just, kind, wise, and smart.

If you manage to pull that off, then I suppose I might consider helping you out a bit more. If I feel like it.

Indeed. I already accounted for Clytie van Gogh's disappearance in my predictions.

You should therefore be able to find her at that point.

That said, my predictions show further conflict in the future, so I expect there will indeed be a fierce battle during the final stage of this incident.

I also expect that our stockpile of resources will be the key to winning this battle, so I suggest we make every effort to ensure we are sufficiently prepared.
