When Gray agreed to go with him, she asked for him to keep hating her face. Bersac pushed Gray off onto Waver, entrusting her to be made his apprentice and admitting her to the Clock Tower of London, and told them never to return to the village.
At the time, Lord El-Melloi II was visiting the village hoping to borrow one of the gravekeepers of Blackmore as a trump card against Heroic Spirits in the Fifth Holy Grail War. Gray left the village when the corpse of someone who looked exactly like her was mysteriously found, which made Bersac tell her to leave. She also had teachers in the gravekeeper Bersac Blackmore and the village priest Fernando Croze. Unfortunately, this meant that Gray's own soul would be lost forever.ĭuring this time when Gray was idolized and yet so alone, her only friend was Add who had first awoken when Gray's face changed to match King Arthur's. Once Gray became a perfect physical copy and just as the Fifth Fuyuki Holy Grail War started, they would use the blade Erosion, given to them long ago by the Black Madonna, to separate Gray's mind and soul from her body, overwrite her personality with the Corpse King as the mental construct, and thus allowing for King Arthur's spirit to enter her body. However, they were given information from Doctor Heartless about the Fourth Fuyuki Holy Grail War and the upcoming Fifth, and decided to gamble everything on Artoria being summoned again and they could intercept her soul coming from the Throne of Heroes by providing a perfect vessel. With Gray as the Body and the Corpse King as the Mind, the last remaining part of the ritual was the Soul, which the villagers were stuck on since manipulating the soul like that would require the Third Magic. The villagers treated Gray as the body of the king, and started regulating her lifestyle to the finest detail to try and increase her compatibility as much as they could. As a result, Gray feared and hated her own face.
ĭue to Gray's situation, the villagers, including her mother Magdalena, believed her to be King Arthur's second coming, and energized the village elders, making them take seriously the plan to bring back King Arthur. Because of this, she could never fully understand herself. Losing her true face, she could no longer differentiate her own existence from that of King Arthur. When she was born, her facial features vaguely resembled those of King Arthur, but ten years ago her body suddenly changed to that of King Arthur's. However, their attempts had thus far been continuous failures, and the ritual had been relegated to folktales and tradition. In other words, their purpose was to revive King Arthur, in flesh and spirit. The clan of the village there aimed to create a being capable of handling the Holy Lance that had been passed down for generations. Gray comes from the Blackmore Cemetery in Wales.
