Shahri-Zada is the priestess of the sacred cave of Dyurk. She carries a particle of divine Light within herself. But fate pursues her. From birth, Shahri-Zada was destined to become a priestess of the temple of Ashur in Assyria. However, she found herself outside her homeland and became a priestess in the sacred cave of Dyurk, the keeper of the Ancestral fire of Tabasaran. In the cave of Dyurk, the evil fate continued to test her. She unexpectedly fell under the influence of a wicked hunchback Assyrian sorcerer. The hunchback, being a priest of the temple of Ashur, offered unusual sacrifices to his supreme god Ashur on New Year's in the form of young maidens and infants. In opposition to the hunchback and his bewitched sister, the youngest sister, Khava, steps into mortal combat. When Khava failed to bring her sister back to the righteous path, she, with the help of the spirit of the Mother of all mothers, decided to punish the sorcerer and the apostate sister. She cleansed the sacred cave of Dyurk, the hearth with the Ancestral fire, from impurity. For many, when they hear the story of Dyurk, huge caves pass before their eyes, winding into the mountain, adorned with carpets, sumacs, ritual dances, chants, and the square of sacrifices... This causes breathlessness, disrupts the heartbeat, and chills the soul with excitement.
