Marshall Law was a pretty normal boy. Raised on the planet of Knoll, he was an intellectual through and through. Certainly not with technology, although he did know how to drive a hovercar, he couldn't fix its flux capacitor. But certainly with magic.
He was on track for being a loyal mage of the Imperial Army...if it weren't for his magical mutation, making people see him as a monster. When his secret is revealed to the world, he's forced to escape from the one thing he's followed all his life, the law for which his family was named. On the way he discovers new things about his sister, his best friend, and the emperor he was so willing to serve.
