In the summer 2021, an exceptional heatwave and drought led to giant fires ravaging 19 million hectares in northeastern Siberia. In this region, at the heart of the taiga, lies the village of Shologon soon to be coated by a thick cloud of smoke. Spread by the wind, the black ashes carry alarming news: the forest is on fire and the flames are fast approaching. The government has left them to fend for themselves, and the inhabitants must rally to fight the Dragon.
