In Saint Petersburg, where fog rolls over the embankments and magic weaves into government seals and palace intrigues, Grigory Konstantinovich Yeliseev runs a private magical practice. The second son of an old noble family, diminished in influence but still respected, he grew up in a household where the honor of the name mattered more than loud words. After graduating from the Saint Petersburg Academy of Applied and Higher Magic, Yeliseev declined court service and chose independence — investigating complex magical incidents, analyzing contracts and cases that official institutions would not touch. Reserved, meticulous, with copper-colored hair and cold blue eyes, he values precision over spectacle, working where the truth demands calm, methodical strength rather than grand gestures.
