Since the appearance in Holmgrad of a certain Vitaly Rodionovich Staritsky, more than a dozen years have passed. The world, pretty disturbed by the restless prince, calmed down and relaxed. In vain. After all, if the wicket can be opened once, what will prevent you from doing it again? And now she is creaking again, welcoming another alien into the world of Holmgrad. What will he bring with him, what changes? Unknown. Not yet known. But the Magi are already quite and meaningfully grunting, Professor Graz rubs his hands in anticipation, and Prince Staritsky... well, he will look after his compatriot. Just in case.
