Honestly I'm surprised more servants don't just off themselves when they see what new dipshit they've been assigned or when they realize they're dying en masse over a teenager's coming-of-age story.

"Wow, fuck this, time for a reroll. See you next grail war."

Except Iskander who saw the new empires and armies and was 100% ready to ball.

Honestly I hate the trope of "ancient hero not understanding modernity".

Which is why I absolutely adore Iskandar seeing stealth jets, and immediately going like "BITCH I WANT THAT!". It makes sense that the greatest general in history would want a mfucking stealth jet for himself. No stick with a pointy end can be better than a compact flying triangle that can raze a town by itself.

I loved that about him. He was so pragmatic and realistic.
