A story about a visit to medieval Paris.

I ended up in Paris. I don’t regret this. I came to this beautiful city at the end of 1645. Then France was exhausted by the Thirty Years’ War. A wonderful city, wonderful people. The architecture is just beautiful. The Cossacks once entered this city. The city has completely changed. The appearance of these soldiers was strange by European standards: wide trousers, an earring in the ear, a haircut. And they themselves are not like the people in this city in their essence. These people were led by a man who was feared and respected. He was the hetman of the Zaporozhye Sichi.
