In a world where magic and those able to use it (known as Wud) are relatively commonplace, you need some kind of legal system in place to deal with those who abuse their powers. Abuse such as blowing up a train and a helicopter to avoid police pursuit, for example.

In particular, our interest lies with one particularly special barrister - seventeen year-old Cecil Sudo, the youngest of her kind and the newest employee of Butterfly Law Offices.
