Luna finds Stella in the garden, sitting under the tree with a book, which isn't surprising in the least — her sister enjoys learning new things, gaining knowledge and go to other places in her imagination since they are forbidden from leaving Manor's grounds and are under constant watch.

Upon seeing her sister , Stella closes the book she was reading (Luna notices it's the second version of One-Winged Angel and Cloudy Wolf that came out not too long ago) and asks, as Luna comes closer:

"Hi, Lu. Do you need help with something?"

"Yes, actually. Can you help me train? I know how to handle my trident now, but I need an opponent to hone the skill, "the Oracle says. "I would have asked Ravus, but he's busy."

"As usual, "Stella mutters as she frowns — she hated what ever since their brother enlisted into the imperial military and began to climb the career ladder, he found less and less time for them — before placing the book on the ground and standing up, brushing off dust from her pants. "Anyway, let's go to train. "

Luna nods and they go to stand against each other on the grass, stances ready.

"Ready?" the youngest Nox Fleuret asks. Once her older sister shows that yes, she's ready, Stella summons her rapier and attacks without any warning.

Luna barely has the time to call forth her own weapon and block. Her little sister is thirteen and only trained for a year or so, but she's quick on her feet and wins against Lunafreya, who didn't have opponent before, in no time.

"This is a bit embarrassing, "the middle Nox Fleuret says as Stella helps to her feet after she fell due to losing her balance when the trident was knocked out of her grasp.

It was a bit embarrassing to lose so easily after all the hard training she had done. That's what lack of a proper rival does to a person.

"It's okay. You just need to practice. Ready for round two?"

Luna picks her weapon up and smiles, facing Stella again, ready for combat. "Yes. Bring it on, sis. "

Stella does so.
