Vládci dávné bohaté vesnice Orak, rozkládající se v oblasti pozdější Mezopotámie, jsou nuceni čelit ohromnému náporu barbarských vraždících kočovníků z národa Alur Meriki. Jejich ničivé nájezdy jsou pověstné. Bude schopen zkušený voják Eskkar, povolaný na pomoc, řádění kočovníků včas zastavit? Nadějí je, že i Eskkar kdysi k Alur Meriki patřil, než byla jeho rodina vyvražděna a vypovězena z jejich středu. Od té doby se Eskkar potuloval po světě a vydělával si mečem na živobytí. Nakrátko se usadil právě v Oraku, kde teď naléhavě potřebují jeho zkušenosti. Eskkar začne ihned jednat: kolem vesnice mají vyrůst pevné hradby, všichni muži se cvičí ve střelbě, zapojí se i ostatní vesničané. Opravdu se podaří změnit prosté obyvatele na bojovníky?
