Joining the Torvilian expedition is the remarkable duo of Fusil Major Volgi 'Eyebite' and his Companion Mikul, also known as Malý Mikulitschku. Volgi has earned the name 'Eyebite' due to his tendency to aim at the faces of his foes. And his reputation preceeds his intimidating accuracy.
Mikul's family migrated to Excelsis when he was but a mewling whelp. Growing up inside it's vast walls, he had trouble learning how to behave in civilian life, such as not eating stray animals, or just because you are stronger than someone does not mean you can take their stuff. Luckily, Mikul met Volgi while he was young, and the two developed a strange mentor-pupil friendship, teaching Mikul exactly how far he could go while remaining part of society.
Now the two go on this adventure more for the possible fortune than for glory. And together, there is almost no place on the battlefield where a foe can hide from both Volgi's bullets or Mikulitschku's menacing mace.
