Atlas Kokoinos is a 17 yr old boy who has no interest in anything except his family. So when his little sister is kidnapped by unknown forces, he decides to join the Hanging Gallows fighting college, a college where if u make it to the end of the year, u can get anything you want, in hopes of getting her back. But it's not as straight forward as he would like it to be as there are people in the shadows ready to do anything to stop him. He must make bonds with his fellow classmates and competitors if he has any hopes of making it. What a bother.
