Chapter One

Prologue

"Ah, good. You're awake." said a mysterious female voice as Lily's eyes shot open. Upon opening her eyes, she finds herself in what appears to be a giant blue and white-colored throne room that looks like it was made in the medieval ages of knights. She began to scan the room to see if there was anyone within the room, only to see what could be described as a woman clad in silver armor, with bits of blue cloth in certain areas of her armor, face as smooth as marble, eyes glowing bright lime green but oddly soulless eyes, hair as gold as the purest gold that could ever be found on earth. Lily was taken by surprise by this woman as she stepped backward in shock upon this, but for some reason, she couldn't move. She soon looked down at herself to see that she was nothing more than a ball of...what she can guess was energy.

"Be at ease, human. You're not in danger...at least as if yet."

"W-Who are you? W-Where am I?" Lily asked as she glared at the woman. "What did you do to me!?"

"I did not do anything to you, Lily Lilac." She said which caused Lily to blink in surprise by her knowing her name.

"How do you know my name? Who are you?"

"My real name is not important at this time." The woman said before standing up from her throne and beginning to make her towards the soul. "For now, you can refer to me as Artoria Pendragon or Lancer if you need to make it short."

"Um...I'll go with Artoria Pendragon," Lily said as she noticed Artoria making her way over to her. "So mind telling me how and why I am here?"

"I regret to say this...but you died."

"....I'm sorry, what?"

"You died," Artoria said bluntly as she lifted Lily's soul up into her hand. "If you're wondering how you died, it was because of your body reaching its limit."

"....What do you mean by that?"

"Lily Lilac, age 7. Your real parents abandoned you at an orphanage that wasn't good at being able to handle children. It was more like a prison to you given the way the caretaker and children treated you because of your affiliation being that of an American, which is frowned upon by where you were living at the time. You decided to leave the orphanage to live on your own so that you wouldn't have to deal with the treatment you were given. But in doing so speed up the time you had left to live. Upon reaching ten years old, because of you being malnourished and having a weak heart that no one knew about. You ended up dying in your sleep in the cardboard box you call home."

"....How did you-"

"Your soul tells me everything I need to know about you. Forgive me if I ended up intruding on your privacy."
