He is alone in this world - a little boy, whom everyone calls Baby. He looks six years old, but few people know that he is actually much older. He is a mutant, and due to a strange coincidence, he became the owner of a rare gift - the ability to remain small, as well as read other people's thoughts and even clear their memories. And he can also move objects... But he has to pay for it - in this case, with his future. The baby cannot grow up, he has no friends, he does not and will never have his own family, wife and children... For everyone, he will forever remain a little boy. But is no one really able to help him? In this cruel and dangerous world in which he is forced to live, there are other people with unusual abilities. For example, the herbalist Mara, whom everyone considers a witch... Or Yellow Eye, a guide to the Old Town, where many interesting and unusual things remained after the war. By the way, that’s where the Kid goes - to buy books, because he values knowledge more than anything else. But he will receive not only old encyclopedias and reference books, but something much more valuable. Something that will change his whole life. And also the lives of all the people connected with him in one way or another...
