Young Robird, third son of a lowly villein, doesn't mind his hard life but of course dreams of better. Every day on his way to manorial labour, he greets a majestic oak on the top of a hill as a king. Sometimes he visits the tree, pretending to be the king's loyal vassal and telling it of his life and dreams.
He did not ever think that the tree would one day answer him. When it does, it offers him a deal that would bring him wealth and fortune. But trees, even talking ones, are not human and making a deal with them is no risk-free undertaking.

Open invitation from the author: I enjoy taking my time getting into the characters, both when I read and when I write. Rushing the plot is not really my thing. Am I alone in enjoying stories that evolve slowly? If anyone is reading this, please let me know if  the pace turns you off from it. I guess I could speed it up, killing off a darling or two...

The man whom all happens by accident (though, according to the said, nothing is accidental), launches the adventure with a dream which seems somehow ominous, before beginning his day as he always did. Hence the natural things change. Anyway, no matter how improbable, serious, dangerous, these events are continually harass him, it always ends with a return to his family, though looks like he forgets some details, but recovers. It is the main and stable theme of this work. I introduce you a tree. We talked about the root, look at stem and its strong branches. The hero of the book slips into parallel worlds. Is attracted, pushed, there he must to come. In the world of Mr. M. (a possible name) is creeping a... God. This secondary character grows the tree, give its strength. Although his influence is important in a subconscious world, his power is also manifested in what we consider as reality. We quickly notice that "reality" is not reality that we, who we are, feel, but beyond it happens something more unusual. Let's return to our hypothetical kabbalistic tree. In "reality", the God manifests himself mystical, through fraternities, inspirations, visions, possession, strange theories, tempting and enticing. This god that changes, transforms, his subjects, has supporters and strong opponents. The sneak of the patriarchal god in a matriarchal society cannot be done without fight. Mr. M. is not only the target of the god who wants supremacy but is discovered by a group of true light source hunters. With them he will go into a new spiritual adventure, to the knowledge of necessary truth. This goal creates and reinforces positive heroes. On top head of tree stands the Light of Truth. The light is hidden by an (almost) impenetrable dome. To breakthrough from inside is allowed a method... Further, mystical world is wasted... The hidden things are touched by specialists light. "Where are we really?" asks M. to the end, like many of us ask ourselves. Do we feel the light?
