    Summary

    Viktor, an exchange student from Zaun, arrives in Piltover for a year-long program designed to mend the long-standing rivalry between their schools. To him, it feels less like an opportunity and more like an experiment doomed to fail.

    The name he keeps hearing—Jayce Talis—is impossible to ignore. Piltover’s golden boy. Brilliant, charming, effortlessly admired. But Viktor knows better. They met once before, at a joint university party, where Jayce barely acknowledged him. The dismissal had burned, leaving Viktor with the impression of arrogance.

    So, when Viktor steps into Piltover’s pristine halls and finds himself face-to-face with Jayce again, it feels like cruel irony. Worse, the two are paired together for a project. Viktor is convinced it will be a nightmare—Jayce represents everything he resents about Piltover.

    Yet as they work side by side, cracks begin to show. Jayce isn’t what he expected. He’s frustrating, yes, but also thoughtful in ways Viktor hadn’t considered. Every new interaction forces him to confront his own prejudice—challenging him to decide if the wall he’s built between them is truly unshakable.
