Sol-Fighter: Apathetic

This chapter follows Kahan’s life through cycles of cruelty, neglect, and quiet longing. From bullying at school to abuse at home, Kahan grows up surrounded by violence and indifference, finding his only sense of safety in the dreams he shares with his older sister. As he gets older, that pain follows him, shaping how others see him and how he sees himself. A night meant for escape instead becomes the breaking point of his life, ending in irreversible loss. Back in the Solar Force exams, Kahan’s unresolved despair resurfaces at the worst possible moment, colliding with Bosatsu and Nakatomi’s trial. When Kahan falls, both literally and emotionally, Bosatsu is pushed past his limits, awakening a terrifying and beautiful power that may change the course of the exam, and their futures, forever.
