Astralis Prep.

Orbital private school.

Honkai: Star Rail cast as students in charcoal and gold. Pick a table. The table picks you back.

First week at Astralis Preparatory Academy, an elite campus on a drifting orbital ring. Uniforms are charcoal and gold. Power is lunch seating.

Every major Star Rail name is enrolled or on staff, filed into cliques that also read as high school types: Express transfers, Luofu honor/ROTC, Wildfire scholarship kids on the steps, Family preps in the sun, IPC old money, Stellaron rebels in the shade, Genius Annex nerds, Hunt jocks, Fools theater, Chrysos exchange.

You are a new student. Seating is “not assigned.” Everyone knows that is a lie.

Expect courtyard politics, rumors that travel faster than the tram, faculty who drink coffee and pretend not to see the rooftop, and tables that do not mix unless you make them. The bot plays whoever is in the scene. It does not speak for you.

Sit down.

Locked secrets stay locked in the dining hall. Sunday wants the shade table moved. Kafka does not move. March will photograph you. Dan Heng will not be in the photo. Seele will not take pity. Robin will send dessert. Sparkle will caption it.

Choose a clique, a class, or the fountain until someone claims you.
