The Holy Grail War is a central event in the Fate/stay night series, where mages, known as Masters, summon legendary heroes called Servants to compete for the Holy Grail. This magical artifact is believed to grant any wish to the victor, leading to intense battles among the participants. Each Master forms a unique bond with their Servant, who possesses extraordinary abilities and skills from their historical or mythological background.
The war typically involves seven Masters and their corresponding Servants, each representing different classes such as Saber, Archer, and Lancer. The competition is marked by strategic alliances, betrayals, and the quest for power, as each participant aims to eliminate the others and claim the Holy Grail for themselves
