He’s sure the current Principalis of the academy Quintus Veridius Julii a political rival knows much more than he’s revealing. The Academy’s vigorous syllabus is a challenge Vis is ably suited to meet but it is the training in the use of Will a practice that Vis finds abhorrent that he must learn in order to excel at the Academy.

A single recipient can accept ceded Will from multiple people growing in power towards superhuman levels. Within the hierarchy your level of Will or legal rank determines how you live or die.
