How Ilya Muromets Won Sviatogor’s Sword
from In A Certain Land
In a certain kingdom, in a certain land, young Ilya Muromets rides north into the holy mountains, where the old powers of Rus still linger among thunder, stone, and cloud. He seeks the sword of the legendary giant Sviatogor—a warrior too mighty and great for the earth itself to bear. What begins as a journey for a sword becomes something far greater: a passing of the mantle of strength from the old to the new and a terrifying test of restraint and wisdom. This is the tale in which Ilya Muromets, Rus’s greatest protector, steps out of legend’s shadow and begins to claim it as his own. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
