A young member of the upper classes in a solar system that is only separated by some thousands of miles, and has atmosphere throughout is encouraged to marry. It doesn't end well, and his uncle is then murdered, leaving him alone and in charge. On finding his uncle's scientific involvement in computer science led him into military work, Polystom decides to join the war on Mudworld and command a platoon.
