How many non-humans are here in Vatheon?

If you are not human, what are you?

Are they tricked every single time?

[livingvessel]

It depends. Outside of the three families who originated the Holy Grail Ritual together, almost no one knows about the true intention of the Holy Grail War. Most Masters, like their Servants, believe that it's just a way to get a wish granted. So the Servants aren't really being tricked then, if their Masters are being tricked too.

But there has never been a winner of the Holy Grail War, so it has never reached that point where a Master has to turn on his Servant.

How long has this war been going on?

[livingvessel]

Two hundred years, with the War itself happening five times so far, once every sixty years. Well, I got pulled out of the fifth, but I guess I'll be going back eventually.

Why do you want to know?

[circumsutus]

But no one's ever won? How does that happen?

I'm a scientist. Gathering information is important to me.

[livingvessel]

Usually it's because no one is left in a capacity to accept the Grail. And the Grail has been destroyed before in a War.

Then why are you interested in non-humans? Are you not human, too?

[circumsutus]

No, I'm completely human. I just have a passion for learning.

lol that icon is perfect

[livingvessel]

Then why that particular question?

[Really, she's just a little irked at feeling compelled to answer that first question...]

it's one of my favorites

[circumsutus]

Because I wanted to learn about the nonhumans here in Vatheon.

[livingvessel]

But without any sort of reason other than just wanting to know?

[circumsutus]

I'm a naturally curious person.

[livingvessel]

That just sounds really suspicious.

[And she pictures a really fake innocent smile...]

[circumsutus]

Right now I can't lie any more than you can.

[livingvessel]

That's true. But do you really have no other motive?

[You know, just to make sure.]

[circumsutus]

I'm a scientist. My deepest desire is to learn as much as possible about the world around me.
