Synopsis
I got a promotion, moved from Saratov to Moscow, and was granted a personal audience with the Emperor. I even fell in love, completely unexpectedly. My head is spinning from so many changes. If I told anyone about all of this, they’d think I’ve found a Genie! Of course, every coin has two sides, and this one is no exception. The enemies coming through the portals grow more dangerous, the problems more complex. And the most important question of all still hangs in the air — where do these portals come from? Why do they appear at all? I have to find out. Beside serving my Motherland, I also need to reclaim what is mine. I hate it when people take my property without asking. The new owners show no enthusiasm for giving it back, so my list of enemies keeps growing. Still, when have such complications ever stopped me? I’ll do it all!
