Lidia Maud — Adam Wodyk

One day Ainavel receives an interesting proposal from the Emissary of Edelbord—to sign an Act of Obligation and join the crew of the seekers of ancient artifacts. One would say it is a real stroke of luck, but for Ainavel it is a one step forward to win the freedom. He would never predict, though, that the voyage aboard the Ark of the East might turn out to be something more than just an expedition, and that he might encounter dangers he heard of only from almost forgotten old tales.
