Somewhere in the Great Beyond
Somewhere beyond the material but within the inner planes is an extradimensional area known by scholars and cosmologists as the "Throne of Heroes." The physical appearance of the Throne of Heroes is rather unknown and is really only described as a sort of purgatory, or an endless space with no physical beings present.
Where Heroes Rest
The major reason as to why the Throne of Heroes exists is to allow the souls of legendary figures to rest. In fact, this place is where
Servants' reside until they are summoned to the Material Plane by a summoner or by a faction. While one does not necessarily need to be a "hero" to have their soul enter this place, the individual must have some type of well-known presence during their time alive in their world. Noble warriors, influential leaders, and even powerful adventurer-types all have a good chance to have their souls enter this plane of existence, rather than passing on to the outer planes.
Because all servants come from the Throne of Heroes, all servants more or less know each other one way or another. When two servants meet each other while summoned, they usually have much more recognition of each other's identities than other people may have.
