The enemy drops the first bombs on an unnamed city in a modern European country without declaring war, and Europe brazenly wakes up from its safe sleep. People become 'strangers to themselves', and culture and science are gradually militarised and adapted to the needs of the newly created army. This time of unexpected change is a bad time for the ambitious archaeologist Til and his student Persephone, who are searching for the tomb of an ancient king in the middle of the desert. While they are excavating the burial site, their contemporaries - deaf to the voices of the dead - are digging trenches and new graves. However, the war is also going on in the relations between the seekers of antiquity themselves. After all, they seek not historical truth, but glory - the power of words over the world, thanks to which the winners rewrite the testimonies of the defeated and engrave themselves in the palimpsest of history.
