Summary: Deep in the frozen plains of Barbaricum, the Sarmatians face a terrible threat. The Romans are approaching in huge numbers to capture the Griffin, a sacred and terrifying creature, and they've kidnapped the beloved niece of the wise old Shamon, Fanciakuppov, to lead them to it. Fanciakuppov seeks the help of his Gaulish friends, but quickly finds himself in danger, too.
