Витязи: Story, Cast and Series Facts

Story and premise

A squad of knights becomes a victim of an unknown traitor. The prince removes them from service and expels them from Novgorod. They would be happy to learn a different craft and live quietly for themselves, but what if they ask you for help? And there is someone to protect people from: then foreigners will come, then robbers and pagans will make themselves felt. Novgorod is far away with the princely squad.

And now the real heroes, led by Voivode Belogor, are going into battle together again. Huge gloomy Varun can read footprints and understands the language of animals. Cheerful Agafon is cunning and sharp-tongued, but he also wields axes deftly. Their voivode, Belogor, will not pass by someone else's misfortune, but he will not share his own with anyone. And he does not give him peace – who betrayed them five years ago, through whose fault the squad of knights is now in exile…
