Ep. 11: Rider and Saber debate kingship ideals before Rider summons his army to defeat the Assassins.
Rider and Waver unexpectedly arrive at Einzbern Castle to discuss kingship and their wishes for the Grail with Saber and Archer. Saber argues that a king must serve his people selflessly, hoping to use the Grail to save Britain. Rider criticizes this view, claiming her emotional distance caused dissatisfaction among her subjects, and proposes that people should serve a king whose ambitious nature inspires them. The conversation is interrupted by the arrival of the Assassins. After they reject Rider's invitation to join the feast, he summons his Noble Phantasm, Ionian Hetairoi, an army of loyal soldiers who became Servants. Rider and his forces easily defeat every Assassin. Following the battle, Rider tells Saber he no longer recognizes her as a king and leaves. A conflicted Saber later reveals to Iri that one of her knights left Camelot due to dissatisfaction with her rule.
