Synopsis
They made you forget. We’re going to make you remember. In a world where Black and Indigenous identities have been erased through a cosmic conspiracy, a revolution stirs. When Nigel, Addison, Kalifia, and Sean are thrust into the Void, they awaken to truths buried deep within their DNA — truths the world was never meant to remember. Reptilian overlords, corrupted pyramids, and soul-harvesting moons were just the beginning. Guided by the Creator and an ancient Council of Nine, these once-forgotten beings reclaim divine powers, past lives, and their purpose: to awaken the rest. As portals open, the awakened must confront global empires, hidden history, and the very forces suppressing human consciousness. But when all seems lost… light returns. The Nines: The Great Awakening is a visionary Afro-Indigenous sci-fi epic fusing ancestral power, spiritual warfare, and radical liberation. This is not just a story — it’s a remembering.
