[The feed is at first filled with static and the sounds of the device being knocked around. But eventually, words start to filter through.]
Ahh, I believe this i――No, perhaps――?
[And the person seems to figure it out, so the deep, resonant voice laughs jovially before it flickers to a video feed. There's a gratuitous shot of a manly as hell beard because Rider basically has his face in the camera, but seeing the image on the screen, he leans back to sit with his arms crossed.]
Ha, here we go! What odd little things these computers are. They are far too small and fragile, in my opinion, but that is neither here nor there for the purpose of this announcement.
[He grins even more, clapping his hands together.] Well! I have expected for this or myself to disappear, and yet both still remains. I suppose that crosses out the possibility of it being a strange dream, eh? So hello, those of you that may hear me upon this network! I confess that I do not know completely of the audience to whom I speak, but I suppose it matters little! I am Alexander III of Macedon, King of Conquerors, though I would prefer to be called Rider for now. And I extend my greetings to all of you, as comrades in this situation, as future friends and even more as potential future subjects. I would be remiss as the King of Conquerors to not consider adding this tower to my territories, eh? But this is a matter for another time.
For now, I seek information, if you would give it. I wish to know about those in charge, who I have heard briefly of. [Though he's still smiling, a fire seems to come to his eyes, as if he's fully aware that they might hear this themselves. He's throwing down a challenge, in a way.] I would like to know who I challenge, after all.
[With that grand address out of the way, he crosses his arms once more, his voice becoming less grandiose] And as a last note, I speak exclusively to the Masters and Servants of the War that also find themselves within this tower. If you do not know what this means, then it is not addressed to you, I am afraid. But to you, my friends, I propose a meeting amongst us, to discuss this situation and what it means for us. So please, contact me at your liberty, and we shall speak of where and how we should meet.
((ooc; to the Fate/ cast, which the last part is directed to, if you could include a contact method in a note on your tag or PM it to this journal, that would be awesome! Hopefully we can do a log to play out what Rider's suggesting if there's interest, but if not, we can figure out a conclusion and handwave it.))

no subject
[a chuckle] Though it is still odd as a whole that there should be a single person overseeing our battles! Fighting it as a real war where there is no such position is what I had expected, but I at least understand the reasoning. Still, there is some glory lost in this system!
no subject
Of course, it makes things a bit hard, when the time comes to do damage control... but I cannot complain. This is my duty, after all.
no subject
So if the War were to be fought in the way I know, it would likely be over more quickly! But there would also surely be more bloodshed, which is why I imagine the base system was made.
no subject
[And here her voice softens, just a bit.] The system put into place makes protecting the innocent a much simpler task than it would be in all-out war. And in my opinion, that is why I am here. I do not regulate the battles between the Servants, or tell them what they can or cannot do - unless their actions harm the helpless, that is. It is my duty to make sure our conflict does not spill over into the unknowing populace.
