:::: State of Mexico, Federal Center for Social Readaptation Number 1::::
The alarm blares; there seems to be a great commotion in the prison.
PA System: Red Alert! Red alert! To all units, several inmates have breached the security at the south gate. I repeat, several inmates have breached the security at the south gate. This is not a drill.
In the distance, amidst the chaos, a tall, dark-skinned man hides.
????: Damn, I finally made it. I'm finally out. I need to get out of here, I need to go back...
:::: Bunge Mansion, Buenos Aires, Argentina::::
Two beautiful sisters with straight hair and skin as white as snow are sitting in the garden, seemingly enjoying a tea party. They are both very beautiful, and at first glance, it's evident that these two young women are twins; one as identical as the other, but it's clear they each seek ways to be unique.
Butler: Young ladies, your response to the Betancourt family's invitation is ready. It's time to start preparing for the trip.
Elena: Thank you very much, Elias. We'll handle the travel preparations ourselves, right, sister?
Elizabeth: Of course, sister. Thank you, Elias, you may go.
Elena: You look very excited, little sister. The Holy Grail War. Such an interesting and strange topic provokes an immeasurable intrigue in me.
Elizabeth: Oh, sister, you're so amusing. Of course, I'm excited. Something like this is rare to hear about: an event that involves inviting various magical families to participate, an intriguing ritual that also involves something as coveted as the Holy Grail. I can't help but feel ecstatic.
Elizabeth looked at her sister with excitement, who was expressing a face of exhilaration, something that might seem strange at first glance, but to her sister, it seemed completely normal.
Elena (Thoughts): My little sister, so sweet, so lovely, and so perfect, that face of excitement she always shows when something unknown is waiting to be discovered. Her passion for magical concepts is incredible. But, from what little I know, the Holy Grail is not just anything in the world of magic; it is something extremely valuable. You and I know that very well, sister. What you seek in this Holy Grail War is not knowledge; we both know perfectly well what we desire.
::: Mother Teresa Orphanage :::
Teacher María: Hello, children.
Children: Hello, Teacher María.
The children speak perfectly in sync, showing they've had a good education.
Teacher María: Kids, please welcome your new classmate, Luisito. Be very kind to him; he's going through a tough time, so let's be very careful. Be friends with him, please give him a warm welcome.
Children: Yes, teacher.
The children try to approach Luis, and although he responds and treats the others well, his expression doesn't change. The seriousness on his face is difficult to see in a child; he speaks as little as possible, doesn't smile, doesn't get angry, doesn't cry, just stares into the void.
Teacher María: I don't know, Yaneth, that boy looks really bad. He should get some psychological treatment.
Teacher Yaneth: Don't be silly, María. The institution doesn't have the budget to pay for every traumatized child that arrives here.
Teacher María: But, Yaneth, the boy saw his father murder his mother before committing suicide. We should request support from the administration, ask for help from the institution. If the boy doesn't get any support, he'll never be able to socialize with other children.
Yaneth: Don't be naive, María. If things were that simple, I would have already requested the pipes in the facilities be fixed. Stop imagining things. If you want to do something for him, good for you; with any luck, a wealthy family will adopt the boy and be able to pay for his treatment. For now, just do what you can and stop trying to do more than you should.
María: That's not fair.
::: SPAIN, Granada, Alhambra Castle :::
The Alhambra Castle is an ancient and important magical institution in Spanish magical culture.
A young, tall, mature man of slender build enters a room in the castle where an older man awaits him.
Director: Welcome to the Alhambra Institute, Mr. Gálvez.
Aaron Gálvez: What is such an important institution like Alhambra Castle doing receiving a low-class mage like me?
Director: Don't say that, Mr. Gálvez. In this world, we all have a role to play, sir. And today, we need someone with your characteristics.
Gálvez: Get to the point, old man. What do you need from me?
Director: Have you ever heard of the term "the Holy Grail War"?
Gálvez: Holy Grail War? The Holy Grail of Jesus Christ? King Arthur? You're kidding me, right?
Director: In Japan, several years ago, a mundane ritual took place: the Holy Grail War. Seven mages summoned seven heroic spirits to invoke the Holy Grail, a battle to the death where the winner is granted a wish by the Great Grail.
I want you to participate and bring me that Holy Grail.
Gálvez: You're going to pay me to risk my life in a strange ritual. You know this will cost you a lot, right? I'm not a fan of doing suicide missions.
Director: I understand that life is a great risk, but I also know that a man like you does this daily, isn't that right?
Gálvez: It will cost you a lot, old man, that's what you need to know, and you'll pay an advance, with all expenses included; everything I eat or spend in Japan will be covered by you, whether I win or not.
Director: We can understand your request without any problems, but no, you will not be going to Japan.
Gálvez: Then where are you sending me?
Director: You're going to Mexico. The ritual will take place there, and according to one of our most reliable sources, in a few days, there will be an event where several American mages will gather; the rituals will be discussed there. Go well prepared.
Gálvez: Fine, but speaking of a country like Mexico, I'm going to ask for an extra favor.
