Summary
Tired of spending a life studying to reach an empty future, Asuna enters Sword Art Online, a world of swords and airships, to gain some measure of freedom. When she is trapped, she throws herself into building a new life for herself, as far from what her parents intended as she can. Meeting a dark swordsman sets her on a new course, in Aincrad's skies...
Kirito seeks to hide from a world in which he's never quite fit, and to answer a question that's haunted his dreams all his life. In Aincrad, he finds more than he ever expected.
Kizmel only wanted to protect her people, and overthrow the Highest Administrator. The day the Swordmasters are called, she gains much more.
And one Integrity Knight has only begun to realize her life is not as it seems....

Summary
Kirito has returned to the real world, after over two subjective years living in Underworld as a swordsman. Alice Synthesis Thirty has come to the real world for the very first time, after a lifetime as a Knight who lived by the sword.
Neither of them know their place, in a world strange to both. Neither of them yet truly know each other, despite their shared trials in Underworld. Together, in learning about each other, they may find their way in the world again--assuming Kirito doesn't first die of embarrassment.
