The harder you try, the faster you die.

Lazlo Yarrow is the most naturally gifted mage at MIRKS, the most prestigious magic school in the land. He is also the laziest mage. He enchanted his boots to fly so he wouldn’t have to walk to class. He invented a spell to hold his eyes open during lectures so he could sleep without getting caught. His spells never fail, but he never puts in more effort than needed.

Effort killed his parents. They worked the mana-factories of Kratos until their mana channels burned out, and Lazlo learned the only lesson that mattered: never try hard enough to break.

Then a dragon attacks his school. People are slaughtered. The academy falls apart. And Lazlo finds his uncle, Headmaster Corwen Yarrow, dying from the same mana exhaustion that took his parents.

Lazlo casts one desperate spell to save his uncle.

It works. Just not the way he meant it to.

Now the world has rewound to Monday, his uncle is trapped in a coma that should not exist, and the dragon is killing everybody. Again and again and again.

He could train like a hero. Or he could do what he does best: find the shortest path between impossible and done.
