Decades have passed since the appearance of a certain Vitaly Rodionovich Staritsky in Holmgrad. The world, considerably disturbed by the restless prince, calmed down and relaxed. In vain. After all, if the gate can be opened once, what will prevent you from doing it again? And now she is already creaking again, welcoming another newcomer to the world of Holmgrad. What will he bring with him, what changes? Unknown. Not yet known. But the Magi are already grunting contentedly and meaningfully, Professor Gratz is rubbing his hands in anticipation, and Prince Staritsky... well, he will look after his compatriot. Just in case.
