For old Ishag, life stopped. She was disowned by her own clan. It is not clear where the orc shaman should go on the eve of the cold winter, what to do, and most importantly: why? All that remains is to quietly live out her life alone... but fate thinks otherwise. Among the endless Orc steppes, Ishag finds a strange half-breed child and around the shaman, like a tornado, events spiral faster and faster - intrigues are woven, powerful artifacts are found, ancient prophecies are remembered. No, it’s too early for old Ishag to retire...
