We are delving into the past. You are orphans, 13-16 y.o., from the St. Pigeons orphanage owned by the Triune Church, located on the distant industrious allod of Pekéch.
You're part of the Sparrowhawks - a tight-knit bunch of orphanage outcasts and misfits, banded together when you were 7-10 y.o.
The story begins with one day at the orphanage. Konstantin, one of the gang's original founders, has came up with another "escape and live a rich life" plan. Aleksei, the brains of the crew, is quietly building a small golem, with little help from your mana-tech teacher.
The golem is almost finished, and tonight, you are taking it for an illegal fight in an underground speak-easy - a place of gambling and bets. Real money. Real thugs. But you’re not kids anymore. You’re the Sparrowhawks! And tonight, you’re going to fight for your true freedom! Again...
