Longinus of the Lance dates back someplace between 1,950 (assuming the Anno Domini calendar is as inaccurate as believed, and Yeshua of Nazareth was born in the early 30 ADs) and 1990ish (accurate AD calendar) years, depending on how accurate you want to be and/or how much historic events in the NXE timeline match ours.
Oh, yeah, the Gilgamesh thing. I figure the Eternal Soldier has prior claim -- Goldenrod is just a pale reflection born out of garbled legends, a bit like the 5th war's Assassin. DJ's going to stomp Gilly for sullying his reputation....
Quote:I was going to claim Rule Of Cool / Eyrie Effect, but then I had a brainwave: who says the Eternal Solider reincarnates linearly? Heck, Archer!Shirou did it -- twice, if what I've heard about the 3rd War is accurate. Not to mention, what if reincarnation and/or summoning can work across different branches of time, as in "The War of Kings"? (which I WISH would get updated, dangit, that story had legs). An early draft of this snippet actually had DJ!Lancer mention knowing Asuka!Bazette from "another branch of time," as well as her "making her own bargain" to keep getting reincarnated herself somewhere/when close enough to his own....
