For centuries, the male population of Earth has survived by depending on only one woman, called the Holy Mother, whose ova are harvested to create genetically engineered children.

Society has re-structured itself around all-male families, and gay relationships have become the norm.At the beginning of Marginal, the Holy Mother is assassinated by a terrorist known as Grinja.
