Story[]
The Black Faction seized the Greater Grail for the sake of the clan's most earnest wish to symbolize its independence from the Mage's Association.
The Mage's Association gathers the Red Faction in order to thwart such ambitions.
Taking place in Trifas, Romania, the Great Holy Grail War that takes place between 14 Heroic Spirits summoned by the two factions transforms thanks to Shirou Kotomine, one of the Masters of the Red who is also the Overseer for this Great War.
"Miracle Child" Amakusa Shirou Tokisada -- Shirou Kotomine,
wishes for the salvation of all humanity using the Greater Grail.
"Holy Maiden" Jeanne d'Arc – as Ruler, seeks harmony within the Great Holy Grail War.
Sieg -- an unknown boy, who picks up the sword for the sake of his own wishes after harboring the power of the "Dragonslayer" within him.
Beyond each of their wishes is where the "Apocrypha" is woven.[2]

Adaptation Differences[]
- Fiore Forvedge Yggdmillennia calls Darnic Prestone Yggdmillennia uncle instead of grandfather.
- Assassin of Red's dove familiars are absent.
- Ruler is present for when Saber of Black gives his heart to Sieg, unlike the novel where she doesn't meet Sieg until she comes searching for him after hearing from Rider of Black that Saber gave his heart to a homunculus. She therefore doesn't go to Fortress of Millennia to question the Black Faction about Saber's sudden disappearance.
- The Black Faction arrive in the forest and question Rider of Black about what happened to Saber shortly after the incident transpired, instead of Rider reporting it sometime afterward in the fortress.
- Ruler drops Sieg off at Serge's house and heads out alone, unlike the novel where they spend the night there and head out together.
