It’s a very long story…

...Boris Gnomaphilov, in his opinion, it’s better for blondes to conquer the land than for innocent gnomes to suffer. The gnomes of the gold mines were a peaceful people; there were never any fights among them, only murders. They mined gold on the banks of the Kolontayka River and shot at each other in saloons with their crossbows. The most famous among them was a gnome with the bloodthirsty nickname "Baby Uti-Puti." He was a terrible man, but it was he who made the chak-noris spear with which he slaughtered blondes. Therefore, Boris had a long journey ahead, but in his backpack he had "lard, matches, and eight volumes of Turgenev," and a man joined him on the way, so the adventures began immediately upon arrival.
