You have my word as a Knight of the Round Table. I will not breathe a single word of this to anyone.
[Even if people here don't actually know about the Knights of the Round Table, maybe the intent will get across.]
I don't know much about him specifically, as he is from a future I have not experienced yet. But we are both Servants, and I know some about what he is capable of because of that.
In our world, notable heroes don't go to the afterlife when they die. They ascend to a place called 'the Throne of Heroes', where they linger and wait to be summoned by powerful mages. When a mage summons them, they form a contract and are bound to that mage. The contract lasts until either the Master or the Servant dies. Once the Servant dies, they go back to the Throne of Heroes, but they do not retain their memories of their time while summoned.
This is why it's important for Limbo to die: if he dies and returns to the Throne of Heroes, he will not remember anything of this place. And thus he will not remember our conversations about Master Ritsuka. I don't know how much he knows about them in our world, but my hope is that he will have forgotten them entirely by returning to the Throne of Heroes.
