When Artem Novikov inherits a locked box from a distant relative in 1979, he does not yet realize that his fate is now firmly connected with Genghis Khan. The silver figure will force Artyom to part with loved ones, change his character, throw him into the fiery hell of the Afghan war - and show how the impoverished Mongolian orphan, doomed to death, became the Lord of the Universe. Genghis Khan's power is dormant, but the day is nearing when she can return to the world.
