The Red Winter was a natural disaster.

There can't be anyone to associate it with.

Yet as far as I can tell- these people-

Are attacked by something that would seem to have its' qualities.

Its' like- someone's making a sick joke, and trying to claim responsibility for a miniature ice-age, that crippled the entirety of Europe.

There's personifying a disaster- and then there's this.

is there a historical figure most associated with it? Servants aren't just people, they're myths given form

As far as I know, people mostly talk about the disaster itself.

Its' called the Red Winter, because- well-

... A lot of people died in the chaos it caused.

Not just from the blizzard.

Its' one of those things- like the back plague- that just... doesn't- you don't think of who's behind it.

Because you don't think anyone was behind it.

I can't think of a single person who'd even be powerful enough to call upon an entire blizzard- and not somehow show up during- or after it.

I lived through it, and all I thought was that the weather was giving us a rough time.

It was like a snow-covered hell.

... There's like- one conspiracy nut who wrote a book, claiming there was a link between one occultist who left Parliament, and the Red Winter. But no-one believes it.

I don't know the occultists' name, I never read that book.

I just heard about it.

The Author was some guy called Val Stout.

But- seriously.

The likelihood of someone being powerful enough to summon an entire ice-age... and not go noticed?

Sure, the age of witch-hunts was long over but-... someone that powerful- should've been able to survive.

But they didn't.

Leo, this may be the only lead we have. A cultist would probably be most appropriate for caster than any other class

-sighs-

I'll look into it.

The joke-gift of conspiracy books.

... -just looks down, a little pissed- ... Just- if it was true...

Then- no-one stopped him. And he didn't- succeed in whatever it was he was trying to do.

It... makes it feel like even more of a pointless disaster than it already was.

If it was nature, its'- easier to accept... but a single man- causing such a large scale...

He can't have been Aurelian. Not even an Knight of Aurelius.

... He's struck people here before, then.

There was a small girl in a redcoat- a few months back.

Around the time of Hallow's eve.

Struck by a blizzard.

Should ask some others if they've heard anything about it.

He might've taken down more than just that Lancer guy.

no need to cause a panic, so keep it discrete alright?

we don't want all the servants to prepare for a potential grail war
