As an Inquisitor, Casimir has the pleasure of dealing with Weavers. His so-called intellectual betters, blessed with the power of controlling Aether, the master of all elements. But despite all those years of schooling, so many of them can’t seem to pay their damn licensing fees on time!

Jett appears to be another one of those Weavers. He hasn’t paid in years, and upon further investigation, Casimir finds out that Jett’s late fees are the least of his worries. And now, his father's old friend shows up, out of the blue and insists on giving Casimir back something he never asked for.
