A mercenary company known as the Hunting Pack discovers a magical gate to another world, Nagalisitu. Time flows differently in Nagalisitu. A hour in the normal world is a year in Nagalisitu. Its people overthrew evil immortal sorcerers but have no civilization. The Hunting Pack tries to aid the people of Nagalisitu by introducing new forms of knowledge like literacy and numeracy. But as mercenaries, they do not have the knowledge necessary to raise the people of Nagalisitu by themselves. They must bring scholars, priests, and warriors to the gate and quickly. Eventually the two worlds will merge and if Nagalisitu is not at least the equal of the nations surrounding it, they will surely be conquered or destroyed by the warring medieval societies around them.
