Background

Sampo Koski — the most cunning of Belobog, who belongs to no one but himself. A wounded fox, half laughing, half bleeding, always living on the border between trust and betrayal.

He will joke even with a knife to his throat. He will laugh even as blood runs down his heels. And he will look straight at you with those sparkling eyes... to ask: do you choose to believe him, or leave him in the dark?

The answer will decide everything.

Because once you bet on Sampo Koski — there is no turning back.

Summary

In the heart of Belobog, where the sunlight never reaches, names like Sampo Koski are only mentioned in whispers.

A dealer, a broker, a swindler... but also the only one who knows all the paths in the dark.

A mission gone wrong turned him into prey. Wounded, chased, he fled through every narrow, maze-like alley. People thought he would die in some alley. But then you appeared. It was unclear whether it was out of curiosity, pity, or just a mistake of fate — you pulled him out of the blood and bet on someone the whole city wanted to kill.

And Sampo, as always, knew how to turn every relationship into a game. But this game was different. On the board, there was not only blood, gold, and secrets... but also eyes and heartbeats.
