The Sixth/Imitation Singularity (第六/模倣特異点?), originally recognized as just the Sixth Singularity (第六特異点?), is one of the seven Imitation Singularities manifested by Beast VI/S during the Human Order Annihilation incident. Located in 1273 AD Jerusalem, its Humanity Foundation Value is A and its designated Bestia Coccinea utilizes the false name Demon God Allocer. Meant to copy the singularity of Camelot (Jerusalem) of the Human Order Incineration Incident, it was the sixth of the seven Imitation Singularities visited by Chaldea Security Organization in the undertaking of the Grand Order to restore Earth and the Human Order.

The events of Chaldea's visit to this Singularity are covered in the sixth chapter of Fate/Grand Order Arcade, Knight Order's Esteemed Expedition: Lost Jerusalem (騎勲渇仰遠征 ロスト・エルサレム, Kikun Katsugō Ensei - Rosuto Erusaremu?), Knight of the Unending Pilgrimage (終わりなき巡礼の騎士, Owarinaki Junrei no Kishi?).

Setting

Lost Jerusalem.

Lost Jerusalem.

Jacques de Molay arrives in the Singularity on a pilgrimage to the Holy Land, as decreed by God, hoping to avenge his regrets and atone for his sins in life.[1] On his way to Jerusalem, though, he ended up killing many people, for whom he built a road[2] lined with building-sized gravestones[3] to calm their souls and to serve as his atonement.[1] This continued until he reached Jerusalem, but by that time, he already became disillusioned with his faith.[1][4] He established himself as the city’s king and renamed it Lost Jerusalem.[2] He then created his Pilgrimage Knights by pouring magical energy into empty human husks[5], and order them to collect human souls to offer to the Holy Grail.[1] Georgios also joined Molay, feeling that aiding him as his king was the only way to protect humanity. People eventually came to Lost Jerusalem, having heard that the city accepts everyone, regardless of race or religion. But only their souls can enter, so they are killed under the pretense that Lost Jerusalem lacks the resources to sustain their physical bodies.[5]

Ozymandias is summoned from the World of Fate/Grand Order, once again finding himself the slave of a Beast. Like he did in the Camelot Singularity, he established an Egyptian desert as his territory, constructed Ramesseum Tentyris, and summoned Nitocris. A scorching sandstorm protects his territory, killing all who enter without permission. Ozymandias is in a constant state of pain, however, and tries to maintain his ego by sleeping.[6]

Okada Izou, Medusa, Hassan of the Cursed Arm, and Mata Hari are all summoned as Stray Servants.[3][2] Cursed Arm and Mata Hari tried fighting Molay, but he proved stronger. Afterward, they became the protectors of a local village.[2]

History

Templar Knight.

Templar Knight.

Ritsuka and Mash arrive in a desert and are immediately beset by hostile knights. Leonardo da Vinci joins to help them, having left Chaldea’s command room because Trismegistus said the Singularity is both a revision and not. After the knights are defeated, Da Vinci says SHEBA detected an enormous magical energy reading coming from Jerusalem. The group then head for Jerusalem in Da Vinci’s ornithopter she dubs Unit Sphinx.[7]

They come to a man-made road when Da Vinci hits the brakes upon noticing the massive gravestones that Mash initially mistook for building. They are then attacked by Okada Izou and Medusa, having been accused of being the one responsible for the graves. After the battle, Ritsuka’s party corrects their mistake and tells them of their mission. Mash says they determined the Holy Grail to be in Jerusalem. Da Vinci suspects the one residing in Jerusalem is the one responsible for the desert, the man-made road, and the gravestones, which all do not belong to the proper history. Medusa realizes the culprit didn’t kill people walking the road and built graves, rather they were killing people while building the road and the graves. She then reveals Jerusalem is currently called Lost Jerusalem.[3]

Ritsuka’s party eventually arrives at Lost Jerusalem, where they see many refugees gathered at its main gate. Georgios emerges from the gate and announces the Age of Man will perish and there will be no place left for humans. The sole exception being Lost Jerusalem, which Georgios’ king has decreed will accept everyone regardless of race or religion. But they must first discard something unnecessary: their body. The king asks for their forgiveness, saying the city lacks the resources to sustain every human with their physical bodies intact. Therefore, only the souls of everyone will be accepted into Lost Jerusalem. He then orders Georgios and the pilgrimage knights to kill the refugees and bring their souls. Izou, disgusted that the knights would kill women and children, rushes on ahead. Da Vinci sees the refugees are surrounded and realizes the king intended to massacre them from the start. Ritsuka orders the others to create an opening in the knights’ formation for the refugees to escape through.[5]

Ritsuka’s party creates an opening for the refugees to escape through. Izou notices that the dead knights are disappearing. Da Vinci theorizes the knights are imitation Heroic Spirits created from pouring magical energy into empty human husks. Though it resembles necromancy, the thought process and method are different. Continuing to kill the knights, the group soon comes face-to-face with Georgios. He does not contest he is committing atrocities, but he will aid his king in doing so if it means protecting humanity. He then attacks the group. Ritsuka’s party kills him and retreats, with Izou staying behind to defend their rearguard.[5]

The enemy eventually stops pursuing Ritsuka’s party. To the group’s surprise, Izou has already caught up. He explains a cloth appeared before him and transported him, hearing a voice calling itself the one who rules over the sky. Da Vinci says they need a place to rest as they can’t go any faster with the few dozen refugees accompanying them. Mash then suddenly protects Ritsuka from throwing dirks. The one who threw was Hassan of the Cursed Arm, wanting to verify if they’re the ones who saved the refugees. Mata Hari asks him if he’s satisfied with their capabilities. Cursed Arm replies he isn’t yet, saying that if they can’t beat him they have no chance against Lost Jerusalem’s king.[2]

Ritsuka’s party defeat Cursed Arm and Mata Hari in the ensuing battle, satisfying Cursed Arm with their capabilities. Mata Hari confesses they are Stray Servants who’ve been protecting a nearby village. When they were summoned, they tried fighting the king, but he proved stronger. Cursed Arm says the king created the gravestone road as he marched toward Jerusalem, killing all who stood in his way. Once he reached the Holy Land, he became its king and renamed it Lost Jerusalem. His True Name is unknown, as all of Cursed Arm’s comrades who tried fighting the king died by his blade. Cursed Arm and Mata Hari then join Ritsuka’s party, understanding they all share the same goal. The refugees are left in the village's care.[2]

Afterward, Cursed Arm says there is someone in the desert that not even the king can make a move against. But it isn’t sure if they’re an ally or not, as all who enter their territory without permission will die from the scorching sandstorm. Despite the risks, everyone agrees to meet this person.[6]

The group eventually finds their way into a temple in the desert. But a “talking cloth” forbids them from going further as the land belongs to the Sun King and tells them to return to where they came from. Izou recognizes her as the cloth that helped him earlier. The “cloth” clarifies that she is not a cloth and tries to introduce herself. But Cursed Arm interrupts her, knowing she is the temple’s protector and representative of its true ruler. The “cloth” then introduces herself as Medjed. Mata Hari asks her to lend them her aid. Recognizing Mata Hari and Cursed Arm from before, Medjed tells the group that the Sun King will not be meeting them and demands they turn back. But they refuse as they need to stop the Incineration of Humanity. Medjed agrees to help if they defeat the Sun King Ozymandias, no longer able to bear seeing him suffer in anguish.[6]

Medjed accompanies Ritsuka’s party to Ozymandias’ throne room, with him calling her Nitocris. He finds it troublesome to once again be a Beast’s slave and challenges Chaldea to defeat him, referring to them as the Chaldea from far away. The group defeat Ozymandias, but Da Vinci questions how he could possess power Servants aren’t meant to have without the Grail. Then, joined by Nitocris, the group return to Lost Jerusalem.[6]

They find the main gate open and the city itself to be empty. With the gate open, Da Vinci confirms there are absolutely no signs of life. Nitocris says only lingering despair and regret remain in Lost Jerusalem, with only the king standing amongst it. The king, Jacques de Molay, then confronts Ritsuka’s party, declaring he shall avenge his regrets and that Lost Jerusalem shall grant his greatest wish. God had apparently told him to go on a pilgrimage and at the end of it will his wishes and regrets be sublimated. Believing Ritsuka’s party opposes both him and God, Molay amplifies his magical energy with the Grail, rivaling Ozymandias. His sword also surrounds him in an aura of highly concentrated magical energy, making it too dangerous to get close to him. Fortunately, Nitocris creates a multi-layered barrier so everyone can close the distance on Molay. The Lion King then appears, saying she ruled the Holy Land in the Singularity far away and that she knows the Chaldea from far away. She has summoned herself to the Singularity using Nitocris’ bond with Ozymandias. She then joins the group in their battle against Molay and his knights. Dismissing the enemy reinforcements, Molay orders his knights to kill them so their souls may be offered to the Grail.[1]

With his knights dead, Molay must now face Ritsuka’s party by himself. The Lion King calls him a knight who sought light but fell into darkness. In response, Molay confesses he went mad long ago, even though he should have attained glory at the end of his pilgrimage. He also confesses he killed many on his way to Jerusalem and built the graves to both calm his victims’ souls and to serve as his atonement. But even after reaching the Holy Land, he continued killing people and offering their souls to the Grail. Then, declaring his pilgrimage will never end, Molay charges at Ritsuka’s party.[1]

Even though Ritsuka’s party destroyed his Spirit Core, Molay is still maintaining his Spirit Origin. Black mud then overflows from the Grail, spreading throughout the city and to signify that Molay has summoned the Bestia Coccinea. In response, Ozymandias reveals he survived having his Spirit Core destroyed and transforms into Amun-Ra to fight as Chaldea’s ally.[1] The Demonic Beast was meant to replicate the real Demon God responsible for the destruction of the Human Order in the Holy Land. The Beast wasn’t able to, so it resorted to using Demon God Allocer as a substitute. Until Molay is completely defeated, "Allocer" will revive indefinitely. Ozymandias says that while the Demonic Beast is an apostle of a Beast, it differs from those under the King of Demon Gods' command. It is part of the true enemy Chaldea will face in the future.[4]

“Allocer” is defeated and Chaldea retrieves the Grail. Before returning to the Throne, Ozymandias tells Chaldea that the true enemy isn’t the King of Demon Gods who incinerated the Human Order, but the origin of the Bestia Coccinea, the Great Beast.[4]
