The action takes place in the early XVI century. The Tatars attacked the prosperous Belarusian lands located at the intersection of trade routes, which were part of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania. The Crimean Tatar cavalry raided all Belarusian cities without exception. The aggressors stormed fortresses, robbed and enslaved the locals leaving behind only ashes.[3]

However, the Tatars have to face the army squad and brave residents of Slutsk, who have not been defeated yet. The defenders are led by Princess Anastasia Slutskaya after the death of her husband, Prince Semen Olelkovich (1505).[3][5]
