What will the world become after the last war—especially if it was won not by people, but by elves? How can people live—or rather survive—if only a handful of the few who remained alive have been granted the status of slaves, and only in several free cities you can feel the ghostly scent of freedom…?
A whole series of failures falls on the half-elf Rieyna, a thief and adventurer; a mysterious prince of outcasts is preparing to set off on a long voyage; and a pampered elf idler decides to honor one of the free human cities with his attention.
They are not heroes, and they don’t aim to be. But who cares about their opinion?
