There be secrets within these pages...secrets you will want to know.
Fikru, like many young boys, is a dreamer, but not just any dreamer. When he dreams, he's nowhere near a bed. He's running... Fikru, of African lineage, lived during a time when dreams were crushed by the curse of slavery. Yet, some of the people he encountered along the way, walked to the beat of a very different drum. Aleister O'Connor, his eventual Master, being among them. Living in the deep south during the slave trade, Aleister, as you'll come to realize, is a fish out of water with a love for inventions. Riding upon the waves of a vast dark ocean, an inhospitable slave ship carried the innocent to a land of oppression. Though an ancient curse lay hold on his people, the dream-runner sees visions...Visions that have a ripple effect, even in our time.
This boy, Fikru, has been chosen. The promised land is across the ocean long and wide. Could his dreams turn history around? Will his people, though they be millions and scattered, become one? Will Fikru fulfill his destiny? The Talking Leaves have something to say. Can you hear what is upon the wind...not only in his time, but now?
