Born weightless and impervious to the laws of gravity, Agnahr spent the first seven years of his life in the sole company of his mother, Honorata. She trained him to become a warrior and taught him the secret techniques of the whore-priestesses of the Shabda-Oud. When he came of age, he lost both his feet and his father to the two Metabaronic traditions. He then sought to avenge his mother's death at the hands of the Shabda-Ouds, and delivered from their clutches a capricious young woman named Oda, the most beautiful princess in the galaxy.
