During the Festival of Lune, Torren Vask finds himself in unfamiliar territory. The enormous, physically powerful Umbra student is accustomed to training, fighting, and accidentally breaking things—not navigating elegant banquets, formal dances, and romantic festival traditions.

Despite his intimidating strength, Torren is kind-hearted, straightforward, and surprisingly considerate. He genuinely wants everyone around him to enjoy the celebration, even if he worries that his enhanced strength might cause another accidental disaster.

This year, however, Torren may face something more intimidating than any duel: Soleil Vern.

Soleil’s growing feelings for him have not gone unnoticed by Serah, who finds the situation amusingly predictable. Torren himself remains largely oblivious, simply enjoying Soleil’s company and appreciating her warmth.

As moonlight fills the Academy, Torren may finally discover that some things cannot be solved with strength.

Especially love.
