Sit. Sit.

When was this filmed?

Half a year ago. In that time Oktin Khash conquered all tribes in our expedition's work area.

Oktin Khash is this savage with red feathers on his head, isn't it? - Yes.

- What kind of expedition do we have there?

- Ethnographic one. It's head is Conrad Zhmuda.

- Conrad? - You know Conrad? - Yes, he was my teacher.

"Conrad Zhmuda, age 47, Professor Specialization: ethnography"

Do the tribes represent any threat to the expedition?

No. The station is well protected.

But Conrad established direct contact with the tribes,

which is prohibited by the instructions.

Then we need to send a contacts inspector.

"Andrei Bruce, age 32, Inspector Training course in "Phoenix" program."

We decided to send Andrei.

Main thing - pay attention to their weapons.

There's nothing unusual there, at first glance at least.

The case is that their civilization doesn't know metal yet.

Then where did they get such weapons?

That's what you'll need to find out.

- Andryusha! You've matured! - And you haven't changed a bit. - Hello.

We were expecting you after lunch.

Who are these horsemen?

They are our neighbors from White Wolf's tribe. Ingrid is treating their chief.

- Hello. - Hello. - Ingrid Khan, a doctor. - Inspector Bruce.

- I am ready, Inspector. - Won't you eat with us? - No, thank you very much.

- I'll see you in two days. - May I go? - Yes.

- Good bye. - Good luck.

- We are going to the tribe's village. - Will you come with us?

- Yes. I'll just change quickly.

- Will we sort mail now or after lunch? - As you wish.

- Have you had a chance to meet Andrei. - No, I haven't.

- Axel. - Pleased to meet you.

- What? The Center is not pleased with us? - Why wouldn't they be?

Well, we won't go down without a fight.

- Why are you helping the White Wolf's tribe? - Zhan is sorry for them. They're under his wardship.

- Aren't you sorry for them? - I am. But I understand that we can't really give them real help.

- We can give real help, we just don't have the right to according to instructions.

Zhan maybe goes against instructions, but as a human being he's right.

- Zhan is your philologist, right? - Zhan is not just a philologist. He's a GREAT philologist.

The White Wolf's tribe considers him one of their own.

Conrad, helping the White Wolf's tribe you are breaking the instructions on non-interference.

We are looking for knowledge. And without contact our knowledge is abstract.

And besides, if I can save a human life, if I can feed a hungry person, I'll do that.

And no instructions can prohibit me to do that.

You've come... And I haven't seen you yet. Zhan said, "A young chief is flying down from the sky."

- You are handsome. - Well, there - you've already got a fan.

- How come she knows our language? - It's clear. Zhan is teaching me.

Nobody knows the language of people from the sky. I know. I'm smart. I'm Chief's daughter.

- What's your name? - Billi Guri. Your people call me Bel-lo-gurochka. Is it pretty?

- Hurry up. - Come on.

Careful!

- Zhan Lemont. - Inspector Bruce. - Pleased to meet you.

- Is everything all right? - Yes.

- Hi. - Hello. Glad to see you.

And how often do you break the rule against usage of laser weapons?

Yes, Zhan, you should've waited till that beast bit Inspector's head off.

Hey, look who comes running. Hello, kiddo.

That's Chief's brother. He's showing what a great sorrow this is.

Zhan, ask him how he's feeling today.

- That's a bad weapon. Katuradzh. - Ka-tu-radzh? - That's when someone leaves. Forever.

- You are a big warrior. - Well, yeah.

You can tell Conrad to give us lots of iron knives and arrows?!

Have to fight. Oktin Khash comes and we all katuradzh. It's clear.

- You'll tell him? - No. - No.. No... It's not clear.

You are strong. You don't want to fight. Oktin Khash does. He has lots of iron knives and arrows.

He'll come to win over you.

I tell, you listen.

Bellogurochka always says what she thinks.

Did you promise to give them weapons?

- We don't have the weapons they need. - And if you had it, you'd give it?!

If it were up to me - definitely.

- Conrad, we have visitors. - We see them.

We did as you said, we moved to the ravines. Oktin Khash won't find.

- Why didn't you leave with everyone? - It's clear. I wanted to see him.

- Where's your knife? - Knife? Why do I need a knife?

When Oktin Khash comes, don't let his warriors in here.

He comes and you put the knife in his back.

That's not good. He's coming to talk about peace.

He always comes to talk about peace when he wants to kill.

- He's coming to kill you. - We are not afraid.

Conrad, Oktin Khash is approaching.

- How far? - They'll be here in half an hour.

- Axel, check the energy shield. - Check. - Good. We're coming through.

- So what are you expecting from this meeting? - For Oktin Khash to leave us alone.

- Are you going to let him into the station? - Of course. It's an offense not to let him come in.

Guys, time to meet the guests.

I greet you, Oktin Khash, the great chief, in my home.

He says he's being much honored and he'll visit your tent.

His speech is quite primitive. Kind of hard to translate.

He says that the night is cold and his warriors are hungry.

- Who'll feed them? - The last thing we need...

- He's right, we'd be breaking the law of the steppe. - Tell him, they'll be fed.

We'll go broke!

We are glad that the great chief came to us with peace.

Oktin Khash also likes peace. He's suggesting we give him this house and everything in it.

In return, we'll always be fed and happy. He also offers women. He promises good ones.

Zhan, please tell our guest, that we don't want power over other tribes. We want quiet.

He's accusing you of lying. He says we enslaved the White Wolf's tribe.

And also he demands that we give him Billi Guri. His gracious choice fell onto her.

They are not our slaves. They came to us of their own free will.

The White Wolves ran from him like cowards, says Oktin Khash.

They are not worthy of your care, brother.

How can I persuade him?

Conrad, insist on your own. He's just testing you.

The moment you give in to him in something, he'll move forward at once.

- He's asking me to translate your words. - That's all right. Translate them.

In my counsel, the minors aren't allowed to advice the chief. Or are you a bigger chief than Conrad?

We are not pleased. You didn't give us the White Wolf's tribe. There'll be war.

- What war? We have work to do. No, I don't get it. He's really going to war with us?

Not likely. He's not even caring to show anger.

Ask him, please, if he wants to trade with us or establish commerce.

We have pots to help you cook your meals. We have grains and we can teach you to grow wheat.

He came here to get weapons. Everything else is just camouflage.

We cannot give you weapons.

The food for his warriors is ready.

Oktin Khash wants to send his sorcerer to check the food.

He says we could poison it.

- Why? We eat it ourselves. Andrei, could you see him out? - Sure. - Then come back.

I don't know the thoughts of my dear brother. Maybe death of my warriors will bring him happiness?!

- And what's he here for - sampling? - Who knows?

- Ingrid, the field. Turn off the field, Ingrid. - Turning off. - Check. I see.

- The field! Ingrid, turn on the field. BACK! - Ingrid, the field!

Scum!

Shhh...

- Where are we? - We are imprisoned by Oktin Khash. They killed Conrad.

- Ingrid too. - I know. They killed everyone. Only we are left.

How many times did I say that Oktin Khash's tribe should have been localized?!

Who are we to fight a wild chief on a wild planet?

That's right. It's just the time for intellectual arguments.

- We have to do something. We have to run. - Where? - To the station.

Aha, they'll catch us in five minutes and finish us on the spot.

- I see... - What?

He said you'd go to the shrine of the witches. After all, he thinks you are a chief.

So witches are waiting for you. Do you get it?

He told you to come out.

Hey! Who made this? ... That's some exhaustive information.

Whoa! What a...? Hey, guys!

It's honorable to be proud... But it's better to stay alive.

Follow me.

Hey, where are you? ... Are they chasing us?

This is a bad place. No one will go when there's fog. There are big snakes here. Come.

Don't be afraid. He's smart. He eats only grass.

How did you find me?

My brother was looking after you. We couldn't help. We have only few warriors.

We could only watch.

Brother came and said, "The one that flew down is being taken to the witches.

There's one arm of warriors with him and the sorcerer."

Then I said, "The one who flew down nabu nabu Andrei. The great chief Andrei."

Father is sick. We need a new chief. Now you are my man. You will be our chief.

It's clear? You laugh, I'll kill you. I am Chief's daughter. It's clear?

It's clear! What happened after that?

After that is simple. We caught up with you in the forest, where one needs to sleep.

- That's it. Katuradzh. - They caught your brother?

Brother rode away. They caught another warrior.

- You can hear that far? - I hear in here.

Here I hear the sorcerer and his men looking for our traces.

Soon they come here. Come, Father is waiting for us.

Daddy is waiting for us... Aha...

- Follow me. - I'm going back. Oktin Khash still has Zhan.

I know, Zhan is now the sacrifice.

- What sacrifice? - Oktin Khash wants the witches to be kind.

You were a sacrifice. A good sacrifice. You ran away. So now Zhan will be the sacrifice.

Zhan is alive and I will save him.

You will be a real chief. You think we will win?

All right. We'll go to the place where the mountain is cut open by a dagger.

My brother is waiting there. We'll think. He's smart.

Wait a second.

- Where does this road lead? - Nowhere.

- Has it been here long? - It's been here forever. It's an old road.

- That's interesting. And who made it? - The old people. They lived here before us.

- And where are they now? - It's clear. They died. Katuradzh.

- Let's go. I don't like it. - What don't you like?

The whole steppe knows I stole you. They are looking for us. Let's go.

I'll catch up with you.

Who are you?

Are you a boy or a girl?

A boy.

That's U-ush. Very bad. You are a real warrior. A real warrior needs an iron knife.

Where do you get such knives? You can't make them, can you?

No. The witches gave them to us until Oktin Khash came.

And where do the witches get them from?

It's clear. The witches can make them, right?

And what did the witches need me for?

The witches would have given you to the big fish. Katuradzh.

And you don't want that?

What would we need a dead chief for?

My man has defeated U-ush! You are a real warrior.

I'll think up a song. And I'll sing about you, all right?

Well, I don't really need a song.

My man has defeated U-ush!

It's the witches' gorge. The horses will be here.

- Why? - Need to. We can go in.

- Your brother is waiting for us in there? - Yes. There's a cave there. Let's go.

- I am walking and they are watching. - Who "they"? The old people?

- No, the witches. - What are they like? Those witches?

They are like... also old.. scary...they glow.

The fire arrows! Run!

- It's the witches! - Just move!

- It's the witches! - Where's the cave? - The witches! The witches! - Where's the cave? The cave!

- There! - Let's go!

Whoa!

Quiet!

Come here.

It's a good animal. I told it that we came.

You are my man. You are kind to me. You won't beat me.

No guarantees there.

Come here. Come here. It's good here. Come here.

- Do you have many wives? - I don't have any wives.

Such warrior as you should have many wives. As many as there are fingers.

- And I don't have any. - Or maybe you are sick? - No.

If you don't want to live with me, you can take my sister as your wife. She's pretty.

- And what if I agree to that? - I'll be happy.... Only then I'll kill my sister.

- No, it's not how we do it where I'm from. We have a different law. - What law?

- Back there a man loves only one woman. - What does it mean - "to love"?

"To love"? Well, love is... a feeling.

It's when one person leaves and the other one feels bad without that person.

Well, to love is to love...

Too many unknown words. Let's go look for food.

You can't walk around like that in the woods. Any animal will eat you that way.

Oh, you...

Here, eat.

You can't eat everything you are given.

Why look at me like that? Don't be afraid, I won't run away. I am your woman.

How's your brother? He hasn't come yet?

Why ask what you know yourself?

Brother!

That's the witches' shrine!

- Whose tents are those on the island? - The witches live there.

- And where are they now? - It's too early. They are asleep.

- Do you see Zhan? - No. He's probably in a tent.

- Ah! My brother! - Come back!

- Where are you going? - I'll go there and find everything out.

- I'm with you. - No. You can't smell well and you walk loudly.

Quiet! There!

Whoa! Guys, how many of you are there?

Not all at once, please.

All right.

U-ush.

Zhan... Zhan. Zhan!

Andrei, I'm here.

- Andryusha, calm down. - Don't come near. I said, stop!

What? You don't recognize me? It's me! Zhan.

And who's that then?

That's a hologram. A wonderful hologram.

If I didn't know I was here, I'd think I was there.

- So then you are what - alive? - Damned, if I know. What do you think?

Zhan, but what is this all? What is it?

All this is a museum of everything living on this planet.

The way I understand it, the witches get sacrifices in exchange for the weapons.

- And then make copies of them all. It's just like me. - But why?

You ask too many questions. Come, I'll show you their laboratory.

This thing here is their energy block.

This is where they were taking a copy off me... like a leaf off a cabbage.

- Did you see this? - Yes, I saw that.

Aha! There's my shirt!

Now we know where the weapons come from - the witches give them away.

- I wonder where my pants got to. - I didn't take them! - I believe you.

There are also stirrups and arrows...

You don't have to look - everything is packed with weapons here.

Look!

Right now is the best time to ask about your pants.

Oh, a broad!

Be careful!

Did you see that?!

- It's a robot! - You are surprisingly observant.

Don't shoot!

- What are they? All look-alikes? - Well, they ARE robots.

You shoot way too well for an ethnographer. Now where will we find their masters?

Should we search the place?

Adryusha, wait a sec. Do you think it'll be decent to undress her?

- Why? - Well, it's kind of cold in the mountains and I am not exactly well dressed.

- And what makes you uneasy? - Well, it's a lady, after all.

We need to find horses to get to the station.

Bellogurochka could have helped, but she's a prisoner.

Like hell she's a prisoner!

She's sitting in Oktin Khash's tent, having a tea party!

Well, she's not just any prisoner. She's a chief's daughter.

They have strict etiquette rules here.

- So what will happen to her now? - He'll make her his wife.

Who do you think they are?

The witches' masters. "Old people" as they say here in the steppe. Finally, I see them.

Who killed them?

Oktin Khash.

Not likely. He's afraid of the witches. He would never dare do this.

Conrad believed something like that. That's what got him killed.

Oktin Khash has already had experience of contact with aliens.

All right. These died, but why others didn't come? Why only robots are here?

I don't know. One thing's for sure. It was an experiment.

A magnificent grandiose experiment.

Representatives of an unknown to us civilization

took a planet where life made only first steps

and began to fasten evolution in some new unknown to us way.

That's beautiful, but it's only an assumption.

It's the only explanation to the fact

that here birds, pterodactyls and dinosaurs live next to each other.

Why didn't, say, birds take place of pterodactyls?

Because they didn't have enough time.

The experimenters compressed millions of years into decades.

Even if it was so, they were still defeated.

What a pity. Such efforts and all for nothing.

Yes. That's a typical mistake - moving progress with the help of weapons.

Let's go.

We saw that the chief of the Sky Tribe went to the witches to free Zhan.

So we waited to see if you come back or the witches kill you.

He says you're a great chief, you killed witches. He's not sorry for them.

Their servants, the old people, were giving too few tips for arrows and knives.

The witches also didn't give enough.

Ask him what he wants.

He has to get ready for the big war, he needs many arrows and knives.

So he came to take everything. In return he'll give us Billi Guri and horses.

He says you should think faster if you don't want Billi Guri to be eaten by the big fish.

Tell him that I agree if he lets you and Billi Guri go.

I won't go anywhere.

You will - someone has to reach the station...

I'm asking you, please, save the girl.

Hey, be gentler!

Andrei, kill him!

He says he's your friend and you'll ride together across the steppe.

Sure, we'll ride. I'll show him a ride!

- You will go with Zhan. - No! - He has to be guided to the station.

- Zhan won't reach it alone! - I won't go.

Oktin Khash will kill you.

Listen here. Where I'm from, a woman always listens to her man. It's clear?

- It's clear. - Then go...

Billi Guri!

Andrei, I understood what it means "to love"!

Hey, you! We have to go now! It's katuradzh here!

Andrei!

It seems it's not katuradzh!

Andrei! Not katuradzh! You are alive!

Hey, Andrei! Aren't you tired of splashing around yet?

Everything is OK.

Bellogurochka was the one insisting on waiting for you.

I am very smart. I am a chief's daughter and a chief's wife.

- That's interesting. And who's your husband? - Andrei is my husband.

That's news! Why didn't you tell me before?

How can one tell you? You're always a prisoner.

That means I can congratulate you, huh?

And what? You think anybody asked me about anything on this planet?

First, I was announced to be a fiance. Even rescued out of capture.

Then it turned out that it was done in the interests of the tribe.

And then she was about to marry Oktin Khash!

What did I say?... Wild temper!

Another clash of civilization and savagery ended with the victory of the savagery.

So what are you going to do?

Who could only know how I dream of the bright minute when I step onto the deck of an ordinary space ship.

And I'll probably ask to be assigned back here again.
