Synopsis
Spoiler shield

A story about an agile Cossack named Aeneas. His free and peaceful life was disturbed by the goddess Juno, who did not like our hero and tried with all her might to torment him. Driven by her, Aeneas managed to cope with many difficulties, pass through the fires of hell and even cheat death itself. But the exciting adventures of the Cossack did not end there.
