Chapter Summaries

At the Banquet of Kings, Iskandar and Gilgamesh challenged Lily over her wish to undo Britain’s destruction, and Iskandar condemned her regret as unfit for a king. Pantaleon defended Lily’s rule and her own King’s Path before yielding Yu Feng’s body back to him, leaving the kings doubtful but no longer dismissing her outright.

• Iskandar declared that he wanted a body from the Holy Grail so he could take root in the world and begin conquering it, while Gilgamesh vowed to kill him himself.
• Lily said she wanted the Holy Grail to save Britain and undo its destruction, prompting Iskandar and Gilgamesh to mock and question her regret over her reign.
• Iskandar argued that a king must own her choices and desires rather than wish to overturn history, and he called Lily an immature ruler who had failed to guide her retainers.
• Pantaleon took control of Yu Feng’s body and argued that Lily had ruled well, bought Britain more than a decade of peace, and followed a distinct King’s Path that could not be judged by another king’s standards.
• Iskandar and Gilgamesh continued to doubt Lily’s maturity as a king but reserved judgment, and Pantaleon returned Yu Feng’s body to him.

At the banquet, Iskandar revealed his Army of the King and annihilated the Assassins, leaving Lily to reconsider her kingly path. Afterward, Yu Feng challenged Kariya Matou to face the possibility that Tokiomi Tohsaka might die and Sakura could be taken into the Matou family.

• Assassins attacked the banquet, and Iskandar transformed into his armor after one of them struck his cup and a dagger grazed Waver.

• Mordred identified the Fantasy Tree as the cause of Britain’s changed history, and Kay explained that it had spread after Yu Feng killed Vortigern and became the Holy Tree’s guardian.
