Alyosha Popovich entered the fray with Tatar, who managed to overcome the enemy, but then a black raven appeared, who spoke in a human voice.

" Then they began to boast that their shoulders were not tired, the horses did not leave, the swords did not dull. Alyosha Popovich the youngest boasted more than anyone, exclaiming: “Give us the power of the alien, - we will cope with that force.” “As he said the unreasonable word, so two warriors appeared ...” After Alyosha Popovich chopped two warriors in half, there were “ four of them and everyone was alive .” When Dobrynya did a good job against the enemies, " it became eight — everyone is alive, " when Ilya Muromets joined the battle, " it became twice as many - and everyone is alive ." And the heroes fought " three days ... three hours, three minutes and." And " their good horses went away, their mighty shoulders swung, their damask swords were dulled ."
