More than that, she supposedly managed to summon the cursed mud of the Fuyuki Grail in a desperate bid to not become Goddess Rhongomyniad, according to her backstory - despite that not remotely existing in her time period, or possibly her worldline at all . . .
I would love to know how she pulled that off - what drove her to think that that was a better alternative - and yet, she remains an enigma to this day.
