Hunter Gordey, who came from the village to the big city, did not imagine that such adventures would fall to his lot. Hired killers, a conspiracy of magicians, enemy spies, flights on astral ships and a suicidal operation to free prisoners from the clutches of dark forces! It seems that no one will get out of such a bind alive. But Proud doesn’t care, because his true friends are nearby - the elven bard Vincent and the furry gibberling Eric, who is quick both with language and in a fight. With such a team, any adventure is possible, especially if the friendly company has the biggest secret of the gibberlings - an astral ship.
