A decade vanished, and Waver is staring at himself in the mirror, the version of him that died at Fuyuki, the one he spent years becoming someone else to escape. This special doesn't just hand you nostalgia. It forces you to watch Lord El-Melloi II confront the gap between who he had to become and who he used to be, all in a single morning before the Clock Tower reminds him he's the man everyone learned to fear. Kajiura's score wraps around every moment of that collision, and you feel it the way Waver feels it: as the weight of ten years compressed into a choice he can't unmake.

A letter reaches Lord El-Melloi II announcing a Clock Tower reunion. As the date approaches, he looks in the mirror one morning and finds he has become Waver Velvet, his former self, a full ten years younger. Suspecting a powerful magical delusion, he starts digging into how it happened. On the day of the reunion he joins his contemporaries, hoping to confront whoever changed his body and learn their motive. Then Touko Aozaki shows up, and events shift without warning. This one-episode special blends drama, fantasy and mystery, and it first aired as part of the Fate Project New Year's Eve TV Special 2021.
