There is no hope, only mud, drones and, with luck, a concrete cellar roof or a dugout that is really a miserable hole. On the front line, the 'null', in a piece of land cut off by a river that cannot be given up and cannot be saved, Kon and his comrades wait for light, knowing it will most likely be an explosion. There are volunteers and conscripts who do not want to fight, love as short as life at the front, Starlink internet. Kon left the ruins of his life in Poland to fight and seek redemption, or death. Then he meets Zuja, who wakes what he thought was long dead.
