Attia, a young child from the steppes, spends his time playing Latroncules (a kind of Asian chess) with his friends. The child, the youngest of the siblings, is brilliant and renowned as such. But when his older brother introduces him to the deadly virtues of an innocuous plant, Moundi, who will later become Attila, cannot resist experimenting with it on every animal he encounters. A vocation seems to be born for this budding strategist, to experiment with the seeds of destruction. A calling that will drive him to become "the Scourge" of the World.
