Chapter 1

In the distant XV century, a brave and noble knight named Vasily lived in a distant country. He was known for his generous heart and impeccable manners, which made him a favorite of the locals.

The knight Basil was famous for his courage and bravery on the battlefield. He never missed an opportunity to protect the weak and disenfranchised, always holding his sword high and ready for action. His military exploits became the subject of legends and songs that were sung throughout the kingdom.

Once, when Basil’s land was attacked by foreign invaders, he gathered brave knights and warriors to repel the enemy. The battle was fierce, but thanks to the wise leadership of the knight Basil and his indestructible will, the invaders were repulsed and the country was saved from destruction.

Another time, when the kingdom was devastated by a terrible messenger, Basil went in search of a precious medicine that could save the inhabitants from the disease. The journey was long and dangerous, but the knight Vasily did not stop for a moment until he delivered the medicine to the city. His selfless feat saved many lives and strengthened the hearts of all who knew his name.

The knight Basil was not only a warrior, but also a wise and just ruler. He always sought to ensure that his subjects lived in peace and prosperity, and fought against evil and injustice.

Thus, the knight Vasily was a true hero of his time, whose spirit of valor and justice became famous for centuries. His exploits have survived the test of time and have become a symbol of bravery and nobility.

In ancient Kiev, in a small house on the outskirts of the city, mother Sofia lived with her young son Vasily. After the death of her father, Sofia became the only support and teacher for young Vasily. She gave him all her care and attention, trying to raise him as a noble and kind person.

Mother and son lived modestly but happily. Vasily was very inquisitive and diligent, and listened with great interest to the fascinating stories told by Sofia about ancient times and great heroes. He dreamed of becoming a courageous knight, able to defend his homeland and help those in need.

In the days when Vasily was not engaged in lessons and hard work, he discovered music for himself. They had musical instruments in their house that belonged to their father. Vasily enjoyed learning to play them and soon became a master of the lute and flute. His melodious sounds filled the house with comfort and warmth, and his playing was a way to express his feelings and emotions.

One day, when Vasily was playing a beautiful melody on a lute, his playing attracted the attention of a famous musician who lived not far from them. He heard the music and decided to come over to meet the talented boy. Meeting with the musician was a real revelation for Vasily – he learned a lot about music and received many useful tips that helped him improve his skills.

Playing musical instruments has become not only an exciting hobby for Vasily, but also a way to convey his thoughts and feelings. His melodies became popular among the locals, and every time Vasily played the lute, a crowd of people gathered around to enjoy his music.

Thus, Vasily’s childhood was filled with his mother’s care and love, interesting activities and music, which became an integral part of his life. These memories remained in his heart forever, inspiring him to do good deeds and feats in the future.

Chapter 2

The boy Vasily was only ten years old when his fate suddenly changed. One day, while playing in the surrounding forests, he fell into a trap set by the mysterious and cruel Ivan, a resident of a nearby village known for his harshness and cruelty. Ivan quickly realized that Vasily could be useful to him, and decided to take him prisoner.

Since then, the boy has become Ivan’s slave. He had to forget about his caring mother and cozy home, and now his days were filled with hard work and humiliation. Ivan demanded the most difficult and dangerous tasks from Vasily – he had to take care of a herd of deer, cook food for Ivan and his people, and, as it turned out later, become a victim for predators.

One evening, when Vasily was walking behind the villages to get deer game for cooking, he was noticed by wolves. Vasily was wounded by one of them and found himself trapped – predators surrounded him from all sides, and he was defenseless. But at that moment Ivan came to the aid of Vasily, and, putting himself in danger, was able to drive away the wolves and save the boy. This sacrificial act of Vasily had a strong effect on Ivan, and he began to treat the boy somewhat differently.

Over time, Vasily became not only a servant, but also a faithful assistant for Ivan. He learned how to cook and catch game better than any other slave, and soon his skills became invaluable to Ivan. The boy worked hard and showed ingenuity, which allowed him to survive in difficult conditions of captivity.

Despite all the hardships and trials that Vasily had to overcome, he did not lose hope and believed that someday fate would smile on him. His patience and ability to find a way out of difficult situations made him strong and independent. These character traits became his unwavering support in going through difficult trials.

Thus, Vasily’s fate was not easy, and he overcame many difficulties, but each trial made him stronger and wiser. His sacrificial deeds and faith in justice will one day bring him salvation and allow him to realize his cherished dreams of freedom and dignity.

In the distant past, the boy Vasily was captured by the cruel and ruthless Ivan, whose character and severity remained beyond comprehension for an unabashed boy. From the first day of his captivity, Vasily did not have a chance to experience real attitude and care, because his only task was to perform hard and thankless work. Vasily witnessed Ivan’s indifference and ruthlessness towards the weak, and felt that there was no joy and kindness in his life.

However, tragic circumstances aptly played the cards of the fate of young Vasily. On one of the warm summer days, when the sun’s rays played in the foliage of the trees and sparkled on the river waters, an incredible event happened in Vasily’s life. He met Ivan’s merciful and kind daughter, a girl named Anna. The first impression of the girl turned out to be like an explosion in Vasily’s heart – he could not believe that in this gloomy and oppressive environment there would be someone who was ready to help, smile and support.

Anna noticed Vasily’s hopeful look and decided to do everything to help him. She began to spend more time with the boy, listening to his stories and stories about his past life. Her kindness and care revived the heart of Vasily, who began to believe that there was still a place for bright and warm feelings in this world.

Anna became a mentor and protector for Vasily, she taught him, helped him overcome difficulties and supported him in difficult moments. Her attention and care lit a spark of hope in the heart of the boy, who was more and more striving for freedom and dignity.
