Ethical Practice: A Firm Motive —
A Universe from the Mind of Maxicue
While composing Palimpsest, I realized stories spoken briefly within could be expanded like long footnotes into their own stories with the central core of the universe being a successful law firm with a moral compass.

Therefore I’m opening this Universe to anyone inspired to write an offshoot.--max
