Варяг. Мечи франков

Their land – from eternal frost to the warm Black Sea. Centuries later, this land will be called Rus, but now Rus is those who follow the great prince-Varangian. The leaders of tribes, the commanders of troops and bands. On their swords stands the state, the main artery of which has become the route from Varangians to Greeks. And the best swords are forged in the lands of the Franks. Rich lands, which for a hundred years have been plundered by the people of the North. It is there that the path of young Vartislav the Bold and his band will lie in the year when the future fate of the main power of Europe – the kingdom of the Franks – will finally be decided.
