The world in which the novel takes place is under the rule of a powerful demon, since the god of light has fallen. All sentient beings are prohibited from developing technology, so progress has stopped. But there is magic in this world. The main character is a half-breed outcast living in a village whose inhabitants are just like him. With one significant difference: since childhood, he has been accompanied by unprecedented success - he is head and shoulders above his peers in everything. And strange writings appear before the hero’s eyes from time to time... What does all this mean? The answer is in the book.
