Plot

The story is set in a parallel world to original Fate/stay night where the Grail was removed from Fuyuki City after the Third War and thus events of Fate/stay night and Fate/Zero never happened. It focuses on the conflict between the two opposing factions, Red and Black, each summoning seven Servants and the Grail itself summoning Ruler, a special Class owned by Joan of Arc, as a mediator of the Holy Grail War. The red faction members were sent by the Clock Tower Mage's Association, while the black faction members are part of a Romanian group called Yggdmillennia.

Development

Originally introduced as a canceled project for an online game with various details and character designs by various artists collected in Fate/complete material IV Extra material. In November 2011 was announced a new project for Fate/Apocrypha[2] and in early December, Higashide confirmed on his Twitter that he is writing Fate/Apocrypha as a novel.[3] In December 15, 2011, in seventh volume of Type-Moon Ace magazine was published short story penned by Higashide as the first chapter.[4] But although some story elements are still present, the short story itself has no relation to final version of story presented in novels.
