Ayana is an ordinary girl from Ulan-Ude. Her life is almost no different from that of her peers: school, family, a familiar world. Only she is sick too often… Doctors unsuccessfully search for a diagnosis, and her mother increasingly understands: this is not an illness, but a gift — one that will one day divide life into "before" and "after".
Ayana is sent to her grandmother in a Buryat village by Baikal — where they still speak with spirits. This marks the beginning of her shamanic journey: harsh, ruthless, real. She learns to be a mediator between worlds, but quickly realizes — power comes with a high price.
And the older and stronger Ayana becomes, the more evident it is: the gift is not only a heritage but also a danger. Sooner or later, she will have to make a choice — to remain a tool in someone else's hands or to define the boundaries between worlds herself.
