This is probably the Paper Moon world's outer rim.

＠Sion
Though I do not know if this is what it is always like, or if it is just like this now because of the Holy Grail War.
[k]

＠Sion
At any rate, it seems like the entire outer wall is made up of these, which have built-in shock absorption.

＠Sion
Based on the transmission we received from Rani-XII, it looks like one of the Holy Grail War's mechanisms...
[k]

...involves rotating the entire world in order to change the structures between partitions at a certain phase.
[k]

＠Sion
I think that process is likely what sent us flying to this outer rim area.

Yes, I think so. The System Grail War is also about the prime AIs competing to expand their territory.
[k]

＠Sion
So if a Master succeeds at defeating other Servants and making progress...
[k]

[charaFace A 10]

＠Sion
...they will gain administrative rights over other Masters' partitions and end up with control over multiple domains.
[k]

[charaFace A 2]

That must be why they have a way to physically unify the domains, to reflect their new positional relationship.

I understand your confusion, but remember, this is a virtual world.

＠Sion
It could be that the partitions became conceptually paper-thin during the rotation, or something like that.
[k]

＠Sion
All I know for sure is that we should be very aware of this rule going forward.
[k]

＠Sion
It is just like Raniment and the AIs that keep this world functioning.
[k]

[charaFace A 6]

＠Sion
It bears mentioning that the Paper Moon is a compass, and so must be able to rotate for that purpose.
[k]

＠Sion
It may be strange to think that a massive gyroscope-like rotation is necessary to adjust this world...
[k]

＠Sion
...but that may well be an everyday part of life here.
[k]

？1：I...guess so?
？！

[charaFace A 10]

＠Sion
Anyway, this partition unification indicates two important things.
[k]

[charaFace A 6]

＠Sion
First, this obviously means that the Rider faction now has twice as much area to use for safely securing Raniment.
[k]

＠Sion
That is a natural consequence of gaining command authority over another type of AI.
[k]

＠Sion
And second, we no longer have any sort of enclave.

＠B：Sion
Should they then chose to make Build their new base camp, Transfer would become their enclave.
[k]

＠B：Sion
In other words, they could only protect one territory at a time, leaving the other vulnerable.
[k]

＠B：Sion
Such a punishment is hardly a fitting reward for the winner of a major Holy Grail War battle.
[k]

＠B：Sion
So the partition unification rule must have been added to prevent giving the winner an undue disadvantage like that.

＠B：Sion
Having twice the area to manage should come with a corresponding advantage to make this worthwhile.

Furthermore, say the war reaches a point where there are only two Servants remaining.
[k]

＠B：Sion
This unification rule would also prevent them from wasting time at unrelated opposite ends of the world.
[k]

＠B：Sion
Put another way, this also means the Holy Grail War participants will always have enemies for neighbors.
[k]

＠B：Sion
Such a development could be said to be necessary to encourage the Masters to fight and advance the Holy Grail War.

Conversely, it is also safe to assume that Āyus and Duryodhana were sent flying just like we were.
[k]

The same surely goes for the Rider and Saber teams, too.

＠Sion
Since we cannot see any other faction's camp from here, it would seem that we were all sent in somewhat random directions.
