Russia, 18th century. On the borders of Russia in the Carpathian Mountains is the Savior monastery where the confessor of Empress Elisabeth, the monk Laurier, was exiled. What secrets he took with him from the capital, Saint Petersburg, no one knows. And the region where he was sent, is considered a tormented region since the dawn of time, legends ran about it and they were told in a whisper. It was said that in this region lived a demonic force left there since the time of the Turkish incursions ...
Years after Andreï, the godson of Empress Elisabeth, comes from Saint Petersburg to look for Laurier. In the Carpathians Andreï is confronted with something strange, frightening and extraordinary which reason cannot explain. And furthermore he meets the love for which he fights with the supernatural forces of evil.
