Nazhuret begins life as a student at an elite military academy -- but he is no ordinary student, for though he must have had noble sponsorship to get into the school, he has no known parentage, and his profound ugliness makes him a butt of the other boys' worst behavior. But he survives, even finding a friend or two along the way, until at last he is forced by age to leave the school and strike out on his own. Almost at once he "happens" to find an enemy who becomes his teacher and then, at last, a kind of father to him;but all this is prelude to his emergence into the real world, where he finds himself called upon to act in the affairs of humble countrymen -- and of kings.
