Return of the Assassin

Kiritsugu visits an ailing Iri in the storehouse. She gives her husband the scabbard Avalon and asks him to bring their daughter Ilya to see Japan once the War is over. Learning from Maiya that Saber has gone to battle Rider, Kiritsugu assigns Maiya to protect his wife while he goes to assassinate Tokiomi. Meanwhile, Waver heads to the forest where he summoned Rider in order to replenish his mana before Rider's intended fight with Saber, whom he wishes to battle to set her straight on what it means to be a king. Kariya has a nightmare in which Berserker speaks to him before awakening chained in the cellar of the Matou house. To heal Kariya, Zouken forces him to swallow the crest worm that first tasted Sakura's purity. Iri talks with Maiya about the latter's past as a child soldier, and implores her to live her own life after the war. Iri tells Maiya her wish that this Grail War will be the last so that Ilya can live a normal life. At the same time, Kiritsugu arrives at the Thosaka mansion only to discover that Tokiomi is dead. In the interval, Rider attacks Iri and Maiya. Kiritsugu uses a Command Seal to order Saber to return to the storehouse, where she finds Maiya injured and Iri abducted by Rider; she gives chase on her motorcycle. On reaching the storehouse, Kiritsugu finds the dying Maiya, and comforts her in her last moments through his own tears.
