Background: The Hoshidan New Year festival is a month-long celebration to celebrate the new year.

Personality: Kyza is a rather dutiful and loyal individual, but is perceived to be boring, stiff, and humorless by others around them. They are essentially the polar opposite of Lyre, with their differences repeatedly leading to heated arguments breaking out on a regular basis especially when competing for Ranulf's attention. Despite these feuds, Kyza and Lyre are close friends. Kyza tries to resolve conflicts within the army, calming Lyre down after Shinon offended her with bigoted slurs, and apologizing to Shinon on her behalf.

Despite their normally serious and formal demeanor, when around close friends, their behavior changes, talking and acting in a more feminine way.

Kyza has an obsession with their superior officer, Ranulf, and repeatedly tries to gain his attention.
