Will whip up a Mira post later this evening. Although, with everyone else having left, there's no longer any logical reason for Team Assassin to not just off her, and there's really not much that can be done to stop them unless Jack somehow slips up - unlikely, to say the least - so I'm not liking her chances of getting out of this unscathed. ^^;
Wait, does Magic Resistance apply against Maria the Ripper? Because it's a curse, but it just takes the form of physical damage...
But why go for Saber? MR would apply, but I can't fathom targeting the Servant. There's also a question of whether MR applies to a curse-based NP at its actual rank or its effective rank as magecraft... Maria would be... what, A+++ or something as a normal spell?
@Blackstripe And here I was, thinking Rider would care about his Master having a pretty dismal fate. :P
@Raineh DazeWell, yeah, that was my assumption. Although, I guess Assassin might be in a bad way even if she one shotted Mira, since Saber wouldn't likely just let her walk away or give her the chance to re-conceal herself, so I guess there's still a chance for Mira not to just be insta-gibbed the moment she's finally gone outside. XD
@Raineh DazeIf he DOES care, he won't show it in front of others. His comment about being unable to fathom Johanna's threat was because Estelle is her enemy and it would be solely to her advantage if he did abandon her.
Also, not sure if Rider could've really done anything to help Mira even if he'd stayed, but he'll be pissed if Saber gets taken out of the war in such a "cowardly" way.
We now have two confirmed Masters who are childish enough to be scared of dying, and a grand total of... I think five female Masters? Also multiple female servants.
THIS IS A WAR WHICH MUCKS ABOUT WITH WOMEN AND CHILDREN.
I was trying to write something up for Estelle, but it just wasn't working out. ^^; There's not much for her to do at the moment aside from sulk on the chariot.
