UOTO

In fifteenth-century Europe, heretics are being burned at the stake. Rafal, a brilliant young man, is expected to enter university at an early age and study the era’s most important field, theology. But Rafal values Reason above all else, which leads him both to the shocking conclusion that the Earth orbits the Sun, and into the hands of the Inquisition! A decade later, two members of the Watch Guild, the dour young Oczy and the cynical Gras, find a hidden stone chest that details the secrets of the universe Rafal left behind. Dare they try to change their own stars by selling the heretical texts, or would that only lead to the stake and the fire?

He was born fast. He had nothing else, only the ability to run fast. It gave him "a place at school" and "a bridge between friends." That was all the boy had. Then he met another boy who ran to forget the hardships in life. He was not fast by any means, but he had passion. The passion was infectious, and he gradually came to feel the same excitement. But that was the beginning of the "abnormality."
