На закате своей жизни, когда всё чаще возникает чувство слабости и старческой немощи, когда мраморный саркофаг готов и крышка его открыта и ждёт часа, чтобы опуститься над погружённым в саркофаг телом Повелителя Вселенной, Тимур отправился в поход против самого сильного своего врага- Баязета Молниеносного.
