These conflicting cultures continue to grasp at the veil of calamity, forever surrounded by forces of good and evil, within and without. Inspired by elements of West-African Mythology, this saga follows the struggle of a new generation of Esseri in their fight for expression and cultural equality; whilst opposed by a rigid power structure dictating such an expression, to be a danger to a new world order.
