Our ancestors knew that the souls of the dead go to a mysterious hidden place called Vyraj. Nowadays it’s considered a myth, because magic, impure forces, and miracles don’t exist. The ritual, which began many thousands of years ago and ended only in the mid-twentieth century, separated the otherworld and the human world. Magical power became inaccessible, New Year wishes no longer come true, and the forest spirits stopped looking after the forests. Some supernatural creatures still try to live among people, but their time is running out.
Everything changes when the residents of a modern Belarusian village kill a vampire. Now Vyraj has a chance for rebirth.
