Once again, young boyar Pavel Remezov isn’t allowed to rest in his native estate with a young wife and soldiers. He should deal with the household and find the arsonists roaming the woods, cattle thieves, and murderers. Find them, punish them, settle accounts… But it’s not the time for that!
An unexpected guest arrives at the boyar’s place—an old friend, the Mongol centurion Ircheme-oglan, bringing orders from the very khan and his ally, the Smolensk prince Vsevolod Mstislavich. Pavel Remezov must urgently go to Rome—with a message to the pope… and—secretly from the Mongols—to Emperor Frederick Stauffen. Who else to send, if not him? Not just one person, but with a loyal retinue… loyal—either to the prince or to the khan, though it’s not certain that it will be loyal to Pavel. Each of the warriors may turn out to be a watcher and a spy acting in the interests of whoever sent them.
Pavel Remezov has to be extremely careful, especially because no one suspects that behind the guise of a young boyar from medieval Smolensk wilderness there is the sharp mind of our contemporary—a major scientist—who found himself in an unusual and hopeless situation as a result of an overly successful experiment.
