[She wears a difficult expression for a moment; what did this mean, in the end? Was there any reason to believe that their worlds branched before that point? Hell, was "branch" even the right word? Were the subtly - yet completely - different?

The thought had the same effect as a faceful of ice cold water; it didn't matter if their worlds were different. Were the repercussions? Certainly. What would it have been like, to watch Hakuno become closer to Rani? Would their friendship have been as heartwarming? Would she have found the small girl to be reliable? Loyal? Would she have treasured her as much as she had Rin?
It was a curious thought... but it didn't matter.
This girl who stood before her... it was Kishinami Hakuno. Her Master. The person she loved. The one being in all the world for whom she would lay down her life.
That was all that mattered. That, and nothing else.
...and WOW she was sort of getting ahead of herself let's just go ahead and not have all of this chain of revelations be internal...]
You know what I'm about to say, yes? That I remember things differently.
You rescued Rin, although her Servant - Lancer, was it? - perished. Then, later, Rani, and her Servant Berserker, was our opponent.
Rin traveled with us to the core of the Moon Cell... and, I presume, was released.
