In a world where sorcery has turned Yamal into something like heaven, shamans use magic to drive dinosaurs and mammoths on hunts; fish fills baskets without effort, and gardens bear fruit all year round. In light, airy huts it’s always warm—no matter the season. Yet the inhabitants ignore the warnings of the “black shamaness,” who predicts death for those who do not reject war and suffering. She is doomed to a cruel execution so her curses won’t bring misfortune.

Meanwhile, a group of Cossacks led by ataman Ivan Egorov has already penetrated the territory of the magical world. They discover that in every village stands a golden idol that local heathens worship.
