The system has been in place for a little over two hundred years now, but in the first place, it's something that was manmade. Humans—mages, specifically—created this device in order to create a certain miracle.
In creating this miracle, they would access the library of all knowledge—the Akashic Records. However, that is only for the sake of learning, and not for the sake of bettering humanity whatsoever.
Ordinarily, participants of this Grail War are all competing mages seeking to reach the Records. By the time I was summoned, there had already been three Wars that had taken place—three instances of mages pursuing their own self-serving goals.
