Finally full fledged lawyers, James Devine and Chrysalis Starr can finally call themselves a real part of Morix Law Offices. Upon their arrival into the lawyer staff, a variety of strange cases appear to them, all of which seem to link together thanks to the mastermind pulling their strings. The pasts of the two and their friends, Mukuro Erikson, Anton Burke, Yuri Rinko, Niamh Wood, and Aiden Healy, may end up being critical pieces of evidence against the unknown puppet master. But if so, how? With murders at vaults, animation studios, and duck ponds, nothing seems to be connected, least likely to the incident that changed Anton's life for the worse... An incident even he doesn't remember.
To find the link, the criminal's masquerade needs to be exposed, despite how impossible it seems.

Morix Law Offices comes off as a regular agency to many, but the truth is far from what it appears. After Cotoli Morix, a well-known lawyer in the area, invites Deirdre Brigit and Lily Shield to join his agency to work alongside him, Chrysalis Starr, and Yuri Rinko, the newcomers begin to suspect that things are not what they seem. The mysterious spy known simply as the Oracle of the Law keeps popping up in nearly ever case taken on by the members of the agency, leaving Cotoli, Deirdre, Lily, Yuri, and Chrysalis wondering who it could possibly be. Each new murder leaves them more perplexed than ever before as the mystery complicates itself further. It seems the only way to quell the chaos is to figure out who the Oracle is, but is that even possible? And if their identity is revealed, what consequences will it have?
It's up to the agency to bring about quiet after the hurricane despite the impossible odds that they're combatting.
