Varangian. Swords of the Franks. Mazin A.V.

Their land is from eternal permafrost to the warm Black Sea. After centuries, this land will be called Russia, but now Rus' is those who follow the Grand Duke-Varang. The leaders of the tribes, the leaders of the squads and Hirdes. On their swords there is a power, the main artery of which was the path from the Varangians to the Greeks. And the best of swords in the lands of the francs. The rich lands, who have been robbing the people of the north for a hundred years. It is there that the path of the young Vartislav Daring and his squads in the year will fall, when the future fate of the main power of Europe, the Kingdom of Franks, will finally decide.
