The time of legends. The time of heroes. Grand Prince Vladimir Svyatoslavich. The Baptizer. Ruler. Caesar. There was no one equal to him—and there won’t be, even a thousand years from now. And many hundreds of years after his death, the people of the State of Rus’ created by Vladimir will dream of the return of the past—a world where the Ruler of the Red Sun reigns, and the faithful bogatyrs keep the borders of Rus’ securely.

An arrow that struck into the spine deprived Ilya Godun, the adopted son of the prince-warrior Sergei, of his great future. His legs were taken. One arrow— and a fourteen-year-old warrior became a helpless cripple. But Ilya didn’t give up. He managed to understand: it’s not the legs that make a warrior a warrior, but the true warrior spirit that death cannot crush.
