Description

In the rugged lands that border the Tibiscus, the legendary ruler known as Attila gathers his war‑band once more. Fresh from a grim discovery—a corpse left hanging by a broken hand—he vows to repay the debt owed to a fallen friend. His companion Ardaric, king of the Gepids, voices doubts, while the specter of his brother Bleda’s betrayal looms over the council. The scene is set with vivid descriptions of night‑lit plains, soaring vultures, and a sky pierced by a fleeting shooting star.

The second volume follows Attila as he mobilizes thousands of horsemen toward the eastern frontier, sending messengers to distant chieftains and plotting retribution against those who have wronged him. Amid the quiet of moonlit fields, the narrative balances brutal ambition with moments of uneasy reflection, hinting at the fragile alliances that hold his empire together. Listeners will be drawn into the clash of loyalty, vengeance, and the relentless march of a conqueror whose very presence reshapes the landscape.
