I only got a quick look, but I saw they had longbow archers from around the Hundred Years' War.
[k]

＠Kadoc
There were also some samurai-looking warriors. Going from their armor, I'd guess they were generals from Japan's Warring States period.
[k]

＠Kadoc
Some of the Archers used matchlocks, and other Servants looked like cowboys straight out of the Old West.

I couldn't get a good look at the Casters, though. They either had their faces covered or were using some kind of perception blocking.

[charaFace A 5]

Given what you've told us, Kadoc...

I see...
[k]

？1：Why did you go out of your way to confirm that, Holmes?
？！

[charaFace A 0]
＠Holmes
Ah, that? Because there is a great difference between a Demonic Beast as strong as a Servant, and an actual Servant.
[k]

＠Holmes
It's far from pithy, but it's more accurate to define a Servant as “a Heroic Spirit with a Master.”
[k]

＠Holmes
Though of course, that definition can be applied quite broadly.
[k]

＠Holmes
For example, under this definition, we could say that the land itself serves as a Rogue Servant's temporary Master.
[k]

＠Holmes
But I digress. My point is, no matter how weak or strong a Heroic Spirit may be...
[k]

＠Holmes
...as a rule, they cannot exist as a Servant without a Master.
[k]

？1：Then, what's the story with those Servants?
？！

[charaFace A 4]
＠Holmes
Ah, that is the question, no? Who could their Master be?
[k]

Or does there exist some manner of exception to the rule, which is permitting them to exist without a Master?

Indeed, that all sounds very important as well. Perhaps just as important as how those Servants came to exist.

＠Holmes
I suspect they were referring to their respective kingdoms and territories.

I believe we can confidently say she is the Kriemhild of the legends about Siegfried.
[k]

＠Holmes
She is most likely a Saber or a Berserker, though we cannot rule out Avenger.

The fact that she has formed an army of Heroic Spirits means that she is either highly intelligent herself, or has an intelligent second-in-command.

There have been rather a few men named Kōnstantînos in recorded history, but I suspect we are dealing with the eleventh.

＠Holmes
Kōnstantînos XI is said to be the last emperor of the Byzantine Empire.

[charaFace B 0]

He was the King of the Franks and the first Holy Roman Emperor to inherit the mantle of ancient Rome.
[k]

＠Kadoc
He's even known to many as the father of Europe.
[k]

＠Kadoc
You do know how a Servant's strength depends in part on how famous and Mystical their Heroic Spirit is, right?

Well, that'd pretty much put Charles the Great up in the highest tier of Servant.

This was a clash between two medium-sized forces, and a fairly one-sided one, at that.
[k]

＠Vlad III
Had the Righteous Realm's army chosen their timing more carefully, they could have decimated both other armies.
[k]

＠Vlad III
If I had been leading their charge, I would have waited until the other sides were a bit more entrenched.
[k]

＠Vlad III
You said that the Reinstatement Realm's army was hitting the Revenge Realm with full force to deny them an opportunity to surround them in a pincer movement.
[k]

＠Vlad III
In which case, the Righteous Realm's forces should have easily been able to obliterate the exhausted Reinstatement Realm's.
[k]

＠Vlad III
Even if the Reinstatement faction had chosen to ignore the Revenge Realm in favor of fighting back against Righteous...
[k]

＠Vlad III
...they were too far into enemy territory to mount a successful defense.
[k]

＠Vlad III
By that point, the Righteous Realm's Archers and Casters could inflict significant damage on the Reinstatement forces without even bothering to aim.
[k]

＠Vlad III
So from everything you'd told us, it would seem the Righteous forces' timing was slapdash. At best.

[k]

＠Holmes
Rogue Servants summoned by the Holy Grail powering a given Singularity have generally worked in service of humanity.
[k]

＠Holmes
That, at least, has been what we have seen thus far.
[k]

＠Holmes
Most of the Heroic Spirits summoned in rituals such as the Holy Grail War have been on humanity's side, as well.
[k]

[charaFace A 5]
＠Holmes
But of course, Heroic Spirits come in all shapes and sizes, in multiple senses of the word.
[k]

＠Holmes
In addition, when they have a Master, their Master's personality affects their own.
[k]

＠Holmes
Both the ineffable nobility of heroes and the naked cruelty of monsters...
