Cursed with immortality, Mars goes on a journey with his lifelong more-than-friends partner Astral, a painfully average future-seeing mage, to find the root of magic, in an effort to ease the side effects of Astral's visions - and to finish their thesis so they can graduate from college. *** Mars can't die. He was cursed with immortality as a baby, while the rest of his family died in a housefire, set by 'bad mages'. Or so he was told. Growing up in the magical college, he's taught he isn't a mage - and not a human either. When he and his only friend and confidant, Astral, go on a journey to finish their final thes is for college, they expected everything to go smoothly. But getting around isn't easy when you've got a friend who hates to walk - and who actually isn't a friend but so much more. Complications arises and Mars has to figure out his priorities: finding out the truth about his origins, finding a cure for Astral's seizure-inducing visions, picking up strays and 'adopting' them or finishing their degree.
