Almost a year has passed since the united host of Rus’ people utterly defeated the Khazar Khaganate. And the head of the city guard of Mirgrad, out of breath, burst into Prince Svyatoslav’s palace at the wedding feast with a terrible report. The horrific crime committed in the city shook the very depths of anyone who heard of it—and forced Ratibor, Miroslav, and Yaromir to split up involuntarily and go their separate ways. So what trouble has come to Mirgrad? With what bloody debts will our hero and his loyal friends have to settle? Does long-awaited revenge bring relief? And who, in the whole world, is the strongest, the most stubborn, and the bravest? You’ll find the answers to these questions by reading the second part of the tale of Ratibor from the Rus’ tribe.
