Fate/Providence

Fate/Providence (フェート/プロビデンス, Feito/Purobidensu) is a visual novel idea by Yasuda Izumi.
Taking place thirteen years after the Holy Grail War of Fate/stay night and twelve years after the First Heaven's Holy Grail War of Fate/Renaissance, a new war is at hand. The Holy Grail summons seven Servants and searches for suitable Masters. The Black Faction consists of mages who are unsatisfied or despise either the Church or the Mages' Association. In order to prevent this, the Holy Grail summons seven more Servants and searches for seven more suitable Masters that make up the Red Faction. The Holy Grail also summons three more Servants and searches for Masters who will remain neutral throughout the course of the war. Once all Masters and Servants are summoned, the Second Heaven's Holy Grail War begins.
==Story==
===Setting===
Events of the First Heaven's Holy Grail War begin on June 23, 2017, and end towards the end of July. Servant summons are done on different continents but the main battlefield is in the blistering and torrid Sahara Desert, mostly in the countries of Libya and Egypt. However, battles begin to increasingly occur east of the initial fights. The final battle takes place in Fuyuki. 
===Plot===
====Prologue====
The prologue spans from June 23 to July ??? and is composed of the Servants Summon Arc. Twenty Masters say their prayers as they summon their Servants. All Masters and Servants now move to the Sahara in which they will fight to the death. Masters may or may not live after a battle.
====Africa====
The first few battles take place in Libya. Saber of Red and Saber of Black were technically supposed to be the first battle but both refused as their Masters were on the same side. This arc is the last time and place where all three routes are one and the same. A battle in Cairo splits the Fate route from the Despair route.

==Timeline==
See Fate/Providence/Timeline
==Routes==
Fate/Providence is comprised of 3 Routes.
===Fate Route===
This is considered to be the canon route, this route follows the story of the first heroine, Altea Flamel and the conflicts between the Red and Black Factions.
===Despair Route===
The heroine of this route is Flaminia Morte. After the Destruction of Cairo committed by Caster of Red and her Master, Haytham El Sadat goes berserk. He declares war on all other Masters, ignoring his original job of disabling Archer of Black's Master. He goes on a deadly killing spree, leaving a series of corpses. Haytham's murderous rampage is stopped at the Battle of Hong Kong when the three Masters of TBD, TBD and TBD work together to defeat Haytham. One of them dies fighting along with his/her Servant. The second one gives up his/her chance at the Holy Grail and gives the third one the chance at the Grail.
===Divine Route===
In this route, the story changes after a deadly duel in Hong Kong that led to its complete destruction. Route Info Coming Soon
==Development==
Fate/Providence was the brainchild of Kohaku Muramasa to which he shared the ideas with Yasuda Izumi. Yasuda agreed to co-write the light novel. The two authors have most of the story planned out but they had agreed to make it a wiki-wide project to which they have received little participation due to the small size of the community. The authors are grateful to Masakuni Kishi and Rien Echīzen for being the first to answer the call. However, due to some problems, Kohaku rescinded Fate/Providence to Yasuda alone.
The idea of routes came from Masakuni and Ryuku Fukui.
==Trivia==
*This work is a project idea originally thought up by Yasuda Izumi.
**All Masters and Servants are to be done by other users.
**Fate/Providence is run quite similarly to the Great Holy Grail War of Fate/Apocrypha.
***A difference between the Great Holy Grail War and the Heaven's Holy Grail War is the fact that instead of one-on-one battles, most are done in pairs of two-on-two.
