Artoria is currently asleep in her room at Chaldea. She was having a cold sweat as there was some battle sounds echoing. Fujimaru was having the same thing. The pair were dreaming about that fateful battle when the legend of king Arthur was ended when Cheldea's resident fox like creature sneaks in to Artoria's room.
-dream: battle of Camlenn-
The army of Camelot was outnumbered but only for a brief time when a much bigger army had reinforced the knights. On the battlefield was a woman dressed in Queen armour, she was heavily battle damaged with cuts and bruises. Her armour was dented by various of close combat weapons. After she had killed an opponent, she turned to have a nasty surprise as Mordred appeared. The two hit swords then Mordred runs her through.
-dream end-
Artoria: (shoots up from nightmare) No! VIOLET! (Pants and breathes easily) just a dream.
Fou:(worried) Fou?
The creature, Fou jumps on to her bed and started to lick her face.
Artoria: I'm fine, Fou.
Fou: (tilts head) Fou...
Artoria gives him a pat before she goes back to sleep. The next morning, Artoria was awake and goes to have some breakfast when she caught up with Fujimaru.
Fujimaru: morning saber.
Artoria: morning.
Fujimaru was going to ask her how she slept and was told that Artoria had a nightmare. Fujimaru asked her who or what was the nightmare about. Artoria was silent for a little bit and tells her that the nightmare was a memory of that battle when her prototype version arrived.
Arthur: are you talking about Violet, Sis?
Fujimaru: who's Violet?
Artoria: Violet was Arthur's wife and Queen of Camelot.
Arthur: Don't forget that she was Josh's sister and your sister in law when you married Josh.
Fujimaru: what's her last name before she became queen?
Artoria: her full name was Violet Haruno. Youngest of the three royal siblings of gondor. But Josh was the bravest and known as the dragon warrior.
Fujimaru: dragon warrior? I thought that he's alias was strider when I met him.
Arthur: that's more like a cover name. Besides the reason why that he was called the dragon warrior is that he had a very good partner in the form of a dragon called Úrgost.
Then Artoria started to tell them the story. A story of how she and Arthur met Josh and his sister: princess Violet of Gondor.
- Camelot era: three years before Camlenn-
Artoria, Arthur and Merlin were on the run from Agravain and Morgana's forces. They were having a break and Artoria started to explore her surroundings while her brother was getting changed into some peasant clothes.
Arthur: where's Artoria?
Merlin: probably gone for an explore.
Arthur: That's my sister out there, Merlin! I suggest that we better search for her before anyone out there would find out who she is.
Merlin: ok.
Artoria finds an abandoned camp-site and have a little look only to find that it wasn't abandoned when she first came. While she was searching through it, Artoria finds a uniquely designed bow. As she was inspecting it, Artoria felt a blade against her back.
?: I hope that you aren't going to steal that from us...
Artoria goes to put the bow down but suddenly she drew her sword and a fight broke out between Artoria and her assailant. The two continued to fight until a arrow flew past them. They turned to see the archer.
?2: that's enough. the two of you.
The archer had a quiver of arrows strapped to his right side of his waist and his ranger sword strapped to his left.
?2: Violet, how many times do I have to tell you about jumping to conclusions?
Violet: sorry.
?: might I ask you where you are heading and why in the direction of Gondor?
Merlin: we're heading to Minas Tirith.
Violet: our kingdom?
Artoria: your kingdom? Are you one of the royal siblings of gondor?
?: yes. Meet princess Violet Haruno and I'm Josh. Prince turned ranger. Our elder sister is Sarasota, Queen of Gondor.
The trio were surprised to meet two of the royal family of Gondor. Merlin explains why they are heading to Minas Tirith. But Josh warned them that the Queen would not be happy to see them after that Arthur listened to Agravain but promised that he would talk to her when they arrive. Having reached the border between Camelot and gondor, Josh gave the trio a word of caution which they listen. Sometime later, Agravain and his men reached the border.
Soldier: sir, I don't think that this is a good idea...
Agravain: what did you just say?
Soldier 2: if we cross the border, the queen will see it as an act of war.
Agravain: as long as those Pendragon siblings are alive, the lady Morgan will not rest. (Turns around to the border) let's go.
Hesitant to follow, his soldiers followed him across the border.
