  Summary

  Shirou Emiya, a mechanical engineering dropout, is just making it by as a lab technician for the brutal Camelot Research Lab.

  Far away from his hometown, his only regular contact is the mysterious ‘Saber,’ an online penpal of sorts.

  Well, maybe that Saber is the famously overworked Artoria Pendragon, star PhD student of the Camelot Research Lab, falling down a path of self-destruction.

  He can’t help but want to save her. But how?
