If'at "Admiral's Grand Tactics" is some kinda video game, you ain't gonna see any in Mayfield-we're forever stuck in'a Fifties here, an' video gaming only started makin' it big in'a Eighties.
[there's a sigh on the other end. He was looking forward to being able to get the new one] Well, that's disappointing... Never did get to play the new one. Such a fascinating part of modern culture, those things.
Best you could hope for is'a Postman sendin' you a copy an'a game console along with it. I saw he did that for somebody else, sendin' 'em something they were going to get but didn't yet have back home.
[Balin's not too comfortable with that line of thought, though.]
But, uh-I'm guessin' you ain't actually from'a modern times. Or-what year was it for you when Mayfield nabbed you?
[Rider gets awfully hopeful at hearing that. He never did get to play it with Waver, after all...] Well, I can just keep hoping I'll get lucky, then! Though I'm not sure how good it'd look on these televisions...
Well, I was summoned into modern times to fight one of those Holy Grail War thingies. I'm a Servant, you see.
My time is way back in the past, pushing back to the kingdom of Macedonia!
[Doing some jaw dropping over on his end of the phone.]
Holy fuck!
Okay, so-so lemme get'is straight. You got summoned to fight in'at war, and'at musta been, what, sometime after'a Eighties? So you went from livin' in'a third, fourth century an' get brought all'a way into the twentieth century, yeah? Maybe later? An' after you got summoned'ere, Mayfield brought you here.

Servant? Grail War? Just like Gilgamesh-whoa whoa whoa wait wait wait.
Kingdom of Macedonia? Does that mean you're-?

Yep, just like ol' Goldie.
The mighty King of Conquerors. Alexander of Macedonia.
