Today, I am starting to publish a literary adaptation of an interesting, but little-known work in the Russian-speaking internet – The Path of Heroes.
This work was written by Coyot in 1998, and the original was written in English, despite the author's Czech roots.
I first saw this work in 2006 thanks to GreatGenius – he kindly provided me with both the original and the machine translation.
I was immediately attracted by the incredibly "rich" language of the narrative, "seasoned" with "masterpieces" of machine translation.
That's when the idea of a literary adaptation of the source was born.

The deeper I delved into the source, the more I realized – WE NEED TO KEEP THE MACHINE TRANSLATION! Just translate individual words, but leave the STYLE – otherwise, that charm (hello to fans of the fourth Heroes game) that breathes LIFE into this work will be lost...
