It may happen so that the events around give the law to you which makes you feel suppressed although sometimes you don’t mind such pressure at all.

As fate would have it (this time the role of fate played an elderly wizard who had rather sophisticated plans to implement) a street thief Chris the Tout would become the third son of a baron, would receive the name of Erast von Rut and would be sent to study Magic to a strange and hidden in the middle of nowhere Raven castle.

However, the difference between accepting the law of fate and obeying it without a grumble had always existed in a human society. On top of that, the newly-forged baron would not necessarily follow the plans of the one who had changed his life once and forever.
