Resting in the great outdoors with friends—rustling leaves, the crackle of a campfire, the smell of shashlik—what could be better? And then, right after ripples appear in the air, one of my friends vanishes without a trace. Just a moment ago there was a person—now there isn’t. And then… interrogations, giving statements, protocols, a подписка о невыезде, and the realization that I’d seen a little more than everyone else. But no cloud without a silver lining: fate brings me a meeting with a charming beauty. Next comes her invitation for the weekend outside the city, where it will be only the two of us—fantastic! I agree without hesitation. And that was a mistake. Again, ripples in the air right in front of the car—and instead of the road there’s a boulder. The car is totaled, the girl is in a coma, and strange inscriptions swim before my eyes… First thought: I’ve finally lost my mind. The second thought didn’t even have time to form. The one who wrote the words set a task and named a deadline. I’ll carry it out—and I’ll save the girl. So now I’d rather die in a crash than let her die. No, not die—I’ll nail down and kill every monster of this new world! But how many of them are there here!!!
