Beyond the Northern Wind

Imagine a world where powerful sorcerers – magi, where winged forks inhabit the forest. Here, the Gods have erected monumental cities adorned with intricate carved towers, and in the ancient taiga, nymphs hide. Here, the magic of the Word can drive one crazy, and the water spirit can be a friend. In the vastness of this world unfolds the story of Koschei the Deathless, a name that has terrified the inhabitants of Svarogoria for centuries. A tale about the younger years of the future Lord, about the time when Koschei was a man. This is a tale of events that led him to bind his soul in the Needle and become what the world remembers him as.
