War blazes in the northwest of the Ancient Lands. The richest city of Darwen, the aggressive kingdom of Waihen and the forest people from the Alva race are drawn into the struggle for survival. And tsvargs, inhabitants of the Northern Mountains, can they stay away? And inside this hellish tangle, earthling Arthur is a former infantryman and policeman. And although he has more cartridges, the enemies multiply one after another. And of the real friends, only a couple of rifles with pistols and a sea kite Gore. Well, yes, magic does not work on the hero and he can control the birds. But is that enough? After all, not only intrigues, sieges and decisive battles of the armies lie ahead, two necromancers set off from Earth behind Arthur. They want to send him to the next world and take the medallion stolen from them.
