In the middle of the distant 16th century, Andrey Zverev decided to anticipate the victories of Peter I and strengthen Russia on the Baltic coast: free the Baltic lands from the power of the Order and the papal bishops, give freedom to the peoples, and give Rus’ access to the famous ports of Livonia.
A significant, worthy, and honorable plan—though it is clear that many Russian soldiers would have to pay for its implementation with their lives.
The Mirror of Veles warned the prince that one of the dead would be himself.
However, fate is not content with a simple prediction of death and forces Andrey Zverev, the prince of Sakulyu by right of ownership, to attack the invincible Ottoman Empire—alone, at the head of only half a hundred servants.
But Andrey is not going to die with honor in battles. He is firmly determined to win.
