During their time, the Tartars had a need to destroy and conquer many places. They just so happened to pick the village where the peasants from the familt Buk lived. Luckily, Jan, part of the family Buk, was able to warn the village before the Tartars could attack. Most of the village was destroyed, but Jan and his father were able to survive the attack, but they did not know what happened to their female relatives. Unfortunately, they were forced to serve under Zygmunt. One day while working in the fields, they discovered that the mother and sister of Jan, escaped from Vuldai, the Tartar, and were able to return to Bukowo. While they made it out alive, they were treated horribly under the submission of Vuldai. Due to heinous acts they both had become pregnant by the Tartars. They had nothing but the two horses they arrived in. Zygmunt, a selfish man, thought he deserved more horses, as it reflects rank, and he was rewarded the horse, but the smaller horse was given to Janko. Due to the repetitive attacks of the Tatars, Bukowo was rebuilt as it would be every time it was destroyed, which required many people thus allowing a mix of Polish and Tartar
