      The position is timeless, and the fantasy motifs contained in it, the fight of clans representing good and evil, the texts contain many hidden metaphors, messages for the younger, older and future generations. Already in the introduction, the author warns against the evil hidden in people, which turns them into werewolves. The writer notes that unguarded evil returns in various faces of plague, war, totalitarianism, which also happened in 2020 and 2022. This is the first volume that aims to make people aware of the upcoming changes not only in themselves from the philosophical point of view, but also in the world on Earth from the climate, innovation and cosmos through its discovery and expansion, exploration, conquest. All this will be combined in the next two volumes of Borwar’s adventures.
