The pagan god Perun invades our lives in the guise of a mysterious Beast. His power attracts ambitious people who dream of power over the world. But the burden of God is too heavy for a person, and not everyone is able to carry it through life with dignity.

People die, empires are destroyed, and a bloody thousand-year dance swirls, absorbing more and more adventurers. But the power of the departed pagan gods suddenly sprouts in people who have long forgotten the faith of their ancestors. The call of blood forces them to accept a challenge thrown across the centuries. And police major German Voronin will have a difficult struggle not only with deities, but also with modern fans of ancient cults who dream of resurrecting idols that have sunk into oblivion.
