Description

In a world where mercenary academies train orphaned children to become elite soldiers, Squall Leonhart wants nothing more than to be left alone with his gunblade, his cards, and his carefully constructed walls.

But fate has other plans.

After a blood-drawn duel with his rival leaves him scarred, Squall finds himself thrust into a series of events that will challenge everything he believes. A mysterious dance partner who sees through his defenses. A forgotten connection to his reluctant comrades. A power-hungry sorceress threatening to collapse time itself.

As newly graduated SeeD mercenaries encounter forces beyond their understanding, Squall must confront the ghosts of his past and the uncertainties of his future. With each Guardian Force he junctions to his mind and each rare card he adds to his collection, he moves closer to a destiny he never imagined.

For a lone wolf who trusts no one, the most dangerous battle isn't against sorceresses or monsters—it's against the risk of letting others in.

"Whatever..."became his shield.

Now it might become his downfall.
