Back at Chaldea, the staff were hard at work continuing to monitor the Singularity. "Looks like he's made contact with a possible alliance. I guess we can hope to get some information about how this Holy Grail War is functioning," Romani commented.
Olga rushed her hand through her hair as she continued looking over the situation, compiling her own notes. An artistic scribble linking information all together as she took to presenting it and discussing it over with several of the team. The experience from the previous Singularities boosting her skill.
"I never imagined the Director could grow so much."
"What was that, Romani?! Is that a desire for a demotion I'm hearing?!" Olga snapped back at him, enough to make the mild male simmer down at her fury.
Going back to her report, she compiled the final pieces of information to announce. "We'll have to wait for them to give more information for us in regards to what their Holy Grail War is like, but here is what I've pierced. The Holy Grail War my father was a part of in Fuyuki did occur, although it was decidedly different."
"Are there any similarities that we should know about? It might do for cross referencing," Da Vinci commented.
Olga shook her head, a shadow of confusion casted over her face. "That's where the problem lies. Whenever I try to access any record about it, the only thing I can see is that it has either been erased or redacted at some point. And it isn't a case of being destroyed by an intruder. All of these were committed on my father's own orders," she pointed out, the classic elbows on table thinking pose as Olga struggled to wrack her brain around the reasons.
"Marisbury did that himself?" Da Vinci repeated, attempting any form of her own genius as to why that might happen. An elusive mystery to look into. "We can guess that a Fuyuki Grail War did occur in our own timeline?"
Olga nodded. "Most likely, but it just doesn't explain why the records are hidden. The only guess I can harbour is that this might be related to the funding for how Chaldea came to be," Olga commented, her and Da Vinci trading ideas back and forth while a strained Romani allowed the both of them to talk it up without making a single comment, even if something smart was on his mind. This was a conversation better left without his input.

"I hope you don't mind that it isn't the most hospitable place," Irisviel told them.
Keiji shook his head. "We'll manage. We didn't expect you to fully trust us anyways, besides we only need a place to discuss. However, I'm not really that great of a talker with these kind of things, so I want to let Mash be my mouthpiece. Is that a problem?" he asked, with Irisviel shaking her head
Mash straightened up. "Mash Kyrielight, Shielder. I've been at Chaldea longer, so that's why I'm talking on his behalf."
"And the one you called Avenger?"
Jeanne Alter rolled her eyes. "Yeah, yeah. Just call me Jeanne. I really couldn't care," she said. It would have been confusing if the real Jeanne d'Arc was there, but thinking about that saint was making her gag already.
"So what is it that you want to know? I would think you would know about the fact that we've had three Holy Grail Wars before this one, the fourth."
Mash paused while the rest of the Chaldean staff listening had to drop everything to understand what they just heard. "Wait! Wait! Wait! You mean to tell me you've had a Holy Grail War more than 3 separate times! I hate to ask... but is the Holy Grail War some sort of Olympic event in your timeline!"
Irisviel giggled but she focused quickly. "I think that would be a problem if it was, silly person. The Mage's Association and the Church move to cover it from being seen by the normal people. It's something that can't be exposed so easily to the public."
