> "Maybe this Grail War is weird because of outside interference? It's really strange that Koch got a chance to summon a servant with an artificial mana source before an actual magus from a known family did."

>"You might be onto something," says Archer. "I'd love to know how he knew anything about it."

>It doesn't take too long to get there. The tree certainly damaged it, and no one will be using it anymore without a great deal of repair work. However, you do notice, now that it is not occupied by a much more menacing magus and servant combo, that there is a largis pack on the back, which has avoided the tree's wrath.

>You get into the pack, and find your predictions are correct. Packets of food, a collapsable tent, outdoors supplies and survival gear. Nothing really jumps out at you as special or unusual.

>You dump the tent, and grab the rest. It's kind of heavy and makes your aches ache, but it should fit into the trunk. Archer chuckles appreciatively.

>Archer nods, and dashes ahead.
>"It seems clear," she says "I don't think there's anyone around here other than people on the highway, and it's so loud I don't think they would have easily heard anything. And they're going so fast I don't think many people would have heard more than one."

>You make your way back to your car, which doesn't seem to have suffered any damage or vandalism while you were gone. Your pilfered supplies go into the trunk, and there's no reason to hang around any longer. And if nothing else, you have enough supplies now you can go hog wild, as long as you don't mind falling back onto those MREs you've obtained.

>"That would have been a bad idea," says Archer, "If you don't give the enemy a way to escape when things get bad, they'll just fight to the death in the worst ways. But I could see it."
>Oh, there is a response from Lancer! "Yeah, I've read an article about how their business model is doomed thanks to their lack of quality and poor locations."
