An attempt to correct an incredible number of typos, errors (as well as what the editorial author considered erroneous and willfully changed at his own peril and risk) in the translation from Nika. Details in the last note to the text. Enjoy reading.

Strange events occur in Ankh-Morpork on the eve of the day of the Valley of Kum. This day is a significant historical date celebrated by the city's two largest racial communities, the trolls and the gnomes. Kum Valley is a narrow and rocky valley in the Sheep Mountains, through which the wayward river Kum flows. Long ago, a thousand years ago, in this valley, dwarves ambushed trolls, or perhaps trolls ambushed dwarves. No, of course, they fought each other from the day of creation, but it was after the Battle of Kuma Valley that their mutual hatred acquired official status and led to the development of a type of mobile geography. Any fight between a dwarf and a troll became the “Battle of Kuma Valley.” Even a simple brawl in a pub became a continuation of Kuma Valley. The thirty-fourth book in the Discworld series. The seventh of the series about the Guardian.
