Sinopsis

The Russian work is a blend of a fantastical account of a kingdom ruled by the mythical King Prester John, who governs over diverse and extraordinary creatures, and the legendary tale of Saint George. In the latter, a city plagued by a monstrous serpent leads its citizens to sacrifice their children to appease the beast. Saint George intervenes, displaying his faith and courage, ultimately slaying the serpent and converting the city to Christianity. The narrative emphasizes the power of faith, the importance of sacrifice, and the miracles attributed to Saint George, culminating in the establishment of a church in his honor.
