Before you is a course of lectures of the first stage of training of the Order of the Guardians of Death. This course is intended for the basic training of Adept Candidates. Previously, this course was not distributed, the materials were available only to people who filed a Petition for entry and approved as Candidates. However, due to the large number of people wishing to undergo training, some of which are not aimed at joining the Order, it was decided to make this course available to the general public.
