Outcasts... Half-humans, half-inhumans. Children of violence and interracial incest. People hated and feared them, and all other races despised them. But Erik the outcast, half-human, half-orc, didn't care until he found himself at the very center of a conspiracy by the powerful forces of Virgil XIV. To survive, Eric and his brother, the one-armed elf El, will have to fight a dragon, Dark creatures and a huge army of the Damned. Cross the floor of Lagaron, the Ancient Forest and the great Nazca Desert. And, of course, save the world. But whether he will be able to do this - only time will tell, because sometimes being a hero is oh so difficult, and sometimes it requires too much sacrifice... All along the way, a huge number of adventures, betrayal, losses, meetings with new allies and unexpected enemies await them. And everything would have been fine if Eric had not been constantly trying to kill the powerful necromagus of the North, who was following on their trail...
