Varyag. There Is No Death

When you have transported yourself from modern times to a distant past, it’s only half the trouble. You have proven everything to everyone, and being a regular person of our time, in the conditions of Russia in the 10th century, you have shown your best qualities and managed to become a prince, start a family, and live a fulfilling life as an aging, yet respected ruler. But, upon meeting your end one day, you will not die… Instead, you will find yourself in the body of a twelve-year-old boy, a captive of the Normans, sailing on a ship forty years before your first appearance in the past.
