The Bazhovs always collect their Shards. The clan decided to revive the Moscow hypokatastim and the Elders announced a competition for the right to lead it. The leaders of the three strongest branches declared their claims... and Anton Bazhov. And even though he is a half-breed, the unique beta element of liquid fire more than compensates for this disadvantage. Another question is that the young sorcerer is too inexperienced, but this problem can also be solved by assigning him a skilled mentor... a mentor. And that doesn't mean it will be easier. Rather, on the contrary, beaten by life, the cynical sorceress, who loves to drink and party, declared from the very beginning that she did not like him. But she will do everything so that Anton becomes the head of the clan. The third book is the first volume.
