About the book: 2005 / The Star Prophet, ruler of the land of the elves, is called “twice blessed” - fate sent him twins. One thing darkens the father’s joy - crowns are predicted for both of his sons... The brothers, although very different in character, were strong friends, but life separated them for a long time. Restrained and prudent Sitas studied with the priests, learned the intricacies of diplomacy, preparing one day to take on the burden of power. The impetuous Kit-Kanan, having committed a grave offense, left his parents' home and disappeared into the wild, secret-filled forests surrounding Silvanost. The cause of such dramatic events, of course, was a woman. Leading a free life in the forest, Kit-Kanan learned the happiness of freedom, love and the pain of loss. Meanwhile, strange and disturbing events occur in the elven capital. Big politics, selfish interests, love and hatred, betrayal and heroism are woven into a tight knot. And the moment comes when the fate of the country is in the hands of the princes. Will they cope with this burden? Will they be able to overcome disagreements, resentments, envy, jealousy? Or will they plunge the country into a bloody pool? Finally, will the prophecy come true??
