A year earlier, Tarver Merendsen and Lily Laru were rescued from a terrible shipwreck, but before that, the planet that became the site of the sinking of the Icarus revealed to them the terrible secrets of the Laru Company. Now they live a double life: public under the guns of the cameras and secret away from the eyes of the world.

Now, in the center of the Universe on the planet Corinth, all four are about to face two new players who will bring the fight against the "Laru Company" to its logical end.

When the Laru Company's security forces stop Gideon and Sophia's separate attempts to infiltrate their headquarters, they will be forced to work together. Each of them has their own reason for wanting the destruction of the Laru Company, but neither trusts the other. Working together could be the best chance to uncover the secrets KL is so desperate to hide.

From time immemorial, Brudyre, otherwise known to the world as the Sandman, faithfully fulfilled his destiny, conscientiously fulfilled his duties. He had never questioned his lot among the immortals until now, until he met her. Sarah Serenity Tillman, a consummate beauty inside and out, graduating high school in five months. She has big plans, she dreams of leaving the small town where she spent her childhood forever. But fate has other plans, and it's the Sandman's job to make sure they come true.

The tall, muscular Sandman, called Dire among friends, dressed in black, wrapped in shadows, is more than a myth. And he needs to get the job done. His very existence makes him a creature of the night, because dreams (yes, they don't lie in this part of the legend) are really his speciality. But his task is much more than just weaving dreams for sleeping children. His dreams are designed to influence, to convince those special ones who have to change the course of history, to truly accept the fate chosen for them.

Serenity has no idea that she is Dyre's next assignment. And the dream that he weaves for her, if the girl succumbs to his influence, will change the course of not only her life, but the whole course of history as a whole. But she's not the only one to be influenced. Her inner beauty robs the Sandman of peace, illuminating the darkness that has been his constant companion. Her light was warmth, life itself, and he did not understand how he had survived the previous millennia without her.

The Sandman is actually more significant than people could ever imagine, and his task is important to the course of history. So what happens when a dream maker becomes so distracted by a mere human that he ignores his duties in the immortal realm? How can an immortal who never intended to have a betrothed connect with a young woman without permanently changing her fate in the lives of millions and potentially changing the course of history in a way the Creator never intended?

  What connects a girl without magic, a bloody assassin and an ancient bone dragon? Which is safer to ride: a poisonous wyvern or a dead jaguar? What will happen if you settle in the house of a dark sorcerer, who is looking for the whole empire? It would be very stupid to look for answers to these questions, and even more stupid - to fall in love with a maniac nicknamed Bloody Horror.

  A millennium ago, the Great Fog divided our world into a civilized Confederation and wild fjords. Now there is only one way to get to the mysterious lands - to become a bride for an ilha-barbarian. And I, Annie Wilson, took advantage of this opportunity! After all, all I wanted was to find happiness with a kind and strong husband, a baker from distant Varisfold. But dreams are not destined to come true, because I was stolen from my own engagement! So I learned the terrible secret of the fjords and ended up in the frightening Karnohelm, where the monster lives ... The third story in the cycle "The World Beyond the Great Fog". 1. "Infiltration" 2. "Dragon Silver" 3. "Beast of Carnohelm"

Imperial Infantry Captain Togram was in the process of using a chamber pot when the Indomitable went out of hyperdrive. As always with this maneuver, the officer experienced a violent attack of nausea. He grabbed the pot and vomited into it.

When he felt better, he put the pot on the floor and wiped his watery eyes with his furry wrist. "Gods damn you!" he exploded. - well, why, why does the team not warn us about their tricks? The voices of his subordinates could be heard echoing him, albeit in a harsher form.

Just then, the cabin boy appeared at the door. "We're back in normal space," he shouted, and ran to spread the news further down the cabins. He was followed by curses and rude jokes: “Shut up, cudgel!”, “Thank you!”, “Tell the helmsmen - it’s time for them to recycle!”

Togram sighed and rubbed his face sadly. As an officer, he should have set an example for his subordinates. He was young enough to take it seriously, but he had served long enough to expect nothing more than a couple of epaulette stripes. High ranks are obtained not by service, but by an old family or big money.

Sighing again, he put the pot back into the niche. The metal lid that covered it did little to reduce the odor. In sixteen days in space, the Indomitable reeked through and through of urine, sweat, and sour food. In fairness, it should be noted that in this he was no better and no worse than other ships of the Roksolanovsky fleet. All interstellar travel is like that. Stink and crampedness - this is the price that the soldiers of the empire paid for expanding its borders.

Togram took the lamp and shook it to wake up the fireflies. In horror, they flared with silver light. The captain knew that some races used torches or candles to light their ships, but the fireflies used less air, although they could not shine continuously.

Before the lamp went out, Togram, like a good soldier, checked the weapon. He always kept his pistols loaded; when the landing begins, he will plug two into his belt, two into the lapels of his boots. The sword gave Togram more trouble: the increased humidity inside the ship had a bad effect on the purity of the blade. Indeed, he immediately found a speck of rust, which he immediately cleaned off.

While polishing the gleaming blade, Togram thought about what the new system would look like. It only remained to pray that it would be a planet suitable for habitation. When they get to the nearest planet subject to Roxolan, there will simply be nothing to breathe in the Indomitable. Such danger accompanied all interstellar travel. The danger was not the most formidable - in the systems of small yellow suns there were usually one or two inhabited planets - but still constantly present.

Togram regretted allowing himself to think about it; once having come to mind, this thought will sit there as a splinter. He got up from the couch and went to see how the helmsmen were doing.

As usual, Ransisk and his assistant Olgren complained about the poor quality of the lenses through which they had to aim their spyglasses. “You shouldn't whine,” Togram advised them as he entered. “At least you have light here.” After the dim light of the firefly lamps, the sunlight in the wheelhouse seemed so bright that it blinded the eyes.

Olgren flattened his ears in annoyance. Ransisk was older and calmer. He put a hand on his assistant's shoulder.

If you keep lashing out at every one of Togram's jokes like that, you won't have time to do business - he's been a troublemaker from the moment he hatched from the egg. Right, Togram?

As you say. - Togram liked the gray-faced senior helmsman. Unlike most of his colleagues, Rancisk didn't act like an important job put him in a special position.

Suddenly Olgren froze, only the tip of his short tail twitched excitedly.

Well, the world! he exclaimed.

Let's see," said Ransisk. Olgren handed him the spyglass. The helmsmen carefully studied bright stars one by one, looking for those that would show a disk, which would surely be planets.

Look here, - Togram pointed to a reddish star that seemed brighter than the rest.

Olgren muttered something unpleasant about non-professionals who are minding their own business, but Rancisk cut him off:

The captain has seen more worlds in his lifetime than you, new fish. Do as he says.

Hanging his ears in an offended way, Olgren obeyed. And then I forgot about the insult.

Planet with green stripes! he exclaimed.

Ransisk was just pointing his trumpet at another sector of the sky, but this exclamation made him turn around. He carefully adjusted the focus. Olgren shifted from foot to foot, impatiently ruffling his fur in anticipation of the verdict.

Um, maybe,” the chief helmsman finally said, and Olgren beamed, but then turned sour again as Rancisk continued, “I don't see anything like open water. If we can't find anything better, we'll try this one. But first you need to look for more.

Your luof will be pleased,” said Togram. Ransisk smiled. The Roksolans always carried small animals with them. If the luof placed in the airlock of the flyer remained alive, the atmosphere of the planet was suitable for its owners.

Several planets seemed too dim to the helmsmen. But here Ransisk tensed, leaning against the spyglass.

Here she is! he said almost calmly. - That's what we need. Look, Olgren.

Oh hell yes!

Report to Warlord Sivon and ask if his instruments have picked up any other hyperdrive movement disturbances.

Olgren hurried out of the cabin. Ransisk held out the trumpet to Togram.

See for yourself.

The captain of the Imperial infantry clung to the eyepiece. After the blackness of open space, the world in the spyglass looked painfully like Roksolan: dark blue oceans covered with flakes of white clouds. A suitable size moon hung nearby. Both planets were about half illuminated.

Did you find land there? Togram asked.

Look at the upper hemisphere, just below the ice cap, Ransisk advised. These brown and green spots don't look like water. If there's a suitable planet here, it's the one you see in front of you.

Until Olgren returned, they took turns looking at the planet, trying to form some idea of ​​it.

Well, how? - asked Togram, although the assistant's cheerfully pricked ears already indicated that the answer was positive.

All perturbations from hyperdrive - only from our fleet, no others within the entire system! Olgren broke into a smile.

Ransisk and Togram casually patted him on the back, as if he were the cause of the good news.

The captain's smile was even wider than Olgren's. This means that the planet will become easy prey, which suited him - a regular military man - the most. If the local population is not familiar with hyperdrive, it means that there is no intelligent life in the system, and if there is, it does not matter, the natives probably have not yet invented gunpowder, or aircraft, and, even more so, space weapons.

Togram rubbed his hands happily.

Buck Erzog is tired, which isn't surprising after four months in space (and another one and a half to go). The land behind the Ares III's stern looked like a bright star, and the moon was generally hard to see. Mars rose ahead.

It's your turn to rock, Buck, Art Snyder called to him. Of the five crew members, he was the most disciplined.

I'm coming, Pancho. - Erzog, sighing, perched on an exercise bike and began to pedal - first half-heartedly, then with might and main. Exercise helped maintain calcium in the bones, which is especially important in weightless conditions. In addition, they helped to kill time.

Very often we think through our lives to the last detail, enjoying comfort, but leaving no room for adventure and surprises. This leads to the fact that a person becomes bored, the usual daily activities cease to please him. He feels he is trapped. He wants something new, unusual - this is what we call adventure. Usually, adventure is associated with traveling to exotic places and meeting unusual people, but trust me, each of you can arrange a little adventure for yourself. This does not require special training, a long trip and large financial investments, and in the process you will get a lot of pleasure and positive emotions that will diversify your usual routine.

• To fun in all sails!

Water sports are a great way to get into the adventure. Most cities have parks where you can rent boats and catamarans, and if you live outside the city, you probably know a place where you can paddle. Driving a boat, you feel free and peaceful, you choose the direction of movement, listen to the splash of water under the oars, enjoy the fresh air. Well, if you have the opportunity to rent a kayak on the weekend and raft down a mountain river, then the adventure will definitely be unforgettable!

• Remember childhood

Get your heart pumping and feel the adrenaline rush! This seemingly childish entertainment will allow you to feel like a child again. It is very touching to watch how seemingly harsh and serious adults are transformed, rushing at high speed upside down on a roller coaster or circling on a "surprise". They are laughing and yelling like crazy, and their faces light up with joy. Try to visit an amusement park at least once or twice during the summer, and it will give you a lot of new and positive emotions. This will be a great adventure for you.

• Feel like a tourist

Load the kids and tents into the car and spend the weekend in nature. Sleeping under the stars, eating on a campfire, pleasant morning coolness - all this awakens in us primitive, long-forgotten instincts and allows us to feel like a part of Mother Nature. A trip to nature is a great way to change the scenery and relax away from the dusty stone jungle. Find a place, set up a tent, make a fire, make a barbecue and bake potatoes. Outdoor outdoor games will give you a lot of pleasure throughout the day, and in the evening there is nothing more beautiful than songs with a guitar by the fire. This is a wonderful adventure that will allow you to forget about the bustle of the city, even if only for a couple of days.

• Add speed!

Pull your bike out of the garage, and if possible, rent some mountain bike and go out of town or to the park. Flying at speed along forest paths, when the wind blows in your face, and all your muscles pleasantly ache from the load, this is a real challenge to your abilities. Such a pastime is fundamentally different from the usual sedentary workflow, and this will allow you to get a lot of emotions and discover new facets in yourself that you did not even know existed. Why not an adventure?

• Rise above the everyday

In large cities, there are usually flying clubs that, for a certain amount of money, provide the opportunity to skydive or ride an airplane. The first requires special preparation, but emotions during and after the jump will seethe over the edge. Many people say that skydiving made them rethink a lot in life and start changing it for the better. Flying in an airplane or hot air balloon is easier and safer, and allows you to experience a new atmosphere. You see the world around you from a completely unusual point of view and enjoy its beauty, feeling like a free and free bird. These adventures you will never forget.

• Go ice skating

Get roller skates and find a time and place to ride them for your pleasure. It doesn’t matter if you are a respectable and accomplished man or a business woman, now not only young people, but also older people are skating. Let you not know how - gradually learn, and this will become a new experience for you. If it’s winter outside, then get out to the skating rink, now skates are rented at many city skating rinks. Speed, fresh air, unusual but pleasant sensations - this is a great adventure!

• Get out into the fresh air

For those who do not have the opportunity to ride a bike and do not want to spend the night in a tent, there is the simplest adventure - a forest walk! Plan a route and just walk along the forest paths. Breathe in the fresh air, admire the trees, enjoy the birds singing. Collect a herbarium or arrange a forest photo session. If you come with friends or children, then arrange a frisbee or volleyball championship. In any case, the time spent in the forest will give you new sensations and add some variety to your working days. Well, if there is no forest nearby, then get out into the park.

• climb higher

If you live in a mountainous or hilly area, then climbing is a great adventure for you. Although not on sheer cliffs, this requires equipment and training, but simply climbing up a narrow path, through various obstacles to the top of a mountain or hill, will require you to complete physical dedication. The reward for your hard work will be the feeling that you were able to do it! As a nice bonus - the view from the top. This is also an adventure of its kind.

• Color your friends

Don't worry, this is not crazy nonsense. I mean paintball. This is one of the few team entertainments that will allow you to throw out all your aggression and stress, turning them into a playful execution of especially arrogant friends. I'm kidding, of course. This is a great way to test your senses and abilities - attention, concentration, accuracy, tactical calculation. Someone uses their agility and speed, someone uses cunning, and someone just likes to feel like a “real man”. In any case, new thrills in this adventure are guaranteed to you.

I hope that these nine adventures will be your guide to action and you will discover something new for yourself. You only need a little free time and desire, and believe me, you will not be disappointed!
