Wandering through a snowy wasteland, a bounty hunter accidentally becomes the owner of a page from an old book. He does not yet know that this discovery will bring him together with a group of unpleasant individuals and send him on a long, amazing and very dangerous journey. Deep underground, an ordinary kobold convict is swinging a pickaxe. He meekly pulls his burden, not yet knowing that very soon his fate will change dramatically, and responsibility for the fate of entire nations will fall on his shoulders. On a remote, secluded island, a wizard-investigator is looking for a petty bribe-taker. He is going to quickly arrest him and return home, not yet knowing that behind this insignificant case lies something big and terrible. A night train is rushing through the expanses of the great Grandpyre empire. He stops at a tiny stop, picking up just one passenger - a blind monk, a humble servant of the sun goddess. And he also doesn’t yet know what awaits him in the near future.
