In the flood-woven deltas of Ndurumo, where the rhythm of the drum governs both law and spirit, a hunted boy named Kamu escapes into the shadows of a forgotten power.

Marked by forces he doesn't yet understand, chased by the priest hunters of the K'goma Chieftain, and haunted by a rhythm his blood remembers, Kamu begins a journey through a fractured world of spirit, memory, and ritual.

In a land where drums are sacred weapons, bloodlines carry ancient echoes, and the forgotten gods stir, the path to survival may lie not in strength - but in remembering what was lost.

A spiritual-African fantasy saga of ancestral power, lost identity, and the drumbeat that binds it all.All Rights Reserved

The Fire Between Us by clovisesomba47

She walked into his church barefoot, whispered his grandmother's name, and fainted at the altar. Ezra doesn't believe in prophecies-not since the fire that silenced his faith. But when Amara appears with eyes full of secrets and a name only the ancestors should know, he's forced into a world he thought he left behind. She's a runaway from Ọgbanje Hills-a realm of spirit-born children destined for sacrifice. The gods want her back. And Ezra... he might be the key to her protection, or her destruction. As love grows and destinies unfold, they must outrun curses, unravel ancestral covenants, and decide if their bond is divine... or doomed. Afro-spiritual. Intimate. Unforgettable. 🔥 Some fires burn you. Others save your soul.

Lost Power by Bluetagmind

The ancestors don't ask - they choose. Nina never asked to lead. She never wanted the bond that tied her to two men, or the war that tore her home apart. But destiny doesn't wait for permission. Now the clans are breaking, the hunters are closing in, and the Majini are no longer whispers in the dark - they're calling her name. Between love and loyalty, faith and fury, she must decide what kind of leader she will become: the savior her people prayed for... ...or the storm they were warned about. Because when one was broken, the rest fell - and she fell with them.

Kairo: Echoes of the Fractured Dawn by ShinobiWriter1

In the sun-scorched lands of Ishara, where Aura shapes destiny and Echo Beasts roam, a prophecy whispers of a child born to end an unending dusk. Centuries ago, Azar-once a golden prodigy of the Jua Tribe-ignited his own downfall by stealing a sacred feather, birthing a cursed ember that twisted his light into shadow. Banished to the Obsidian Dunes, he forged a kingdom of silence, his Veiled Aura echoing through time. Now, a new dawn rises with Kairo, born of Imani faith and Jua light under three suns, his harmony bending nature itself. Yet, as tribes fracture over hope and fear, Kairo's gifts mirror Azar's past, drawing the Shadow King's ancient gaze. With Echo Beasts stirring and the dunes pulsing with memory, Kairo must navigate a divided legacy-salvation or repetition-while the prophecy looms, promising balance at a cost only the dunes understand.

When Gods Cry by KairuEdwin

The gods marked the Kasuhi with the mark of good for they had supported them while the Amathu were given the mark of evil for opposing the gods. They then gave the Kasuhi dominion over the Amathu so that evil would never raise again and to prevent another war from happening. Thousands of years later, animosity between the two tribes has culminated in a pending war and at the centre of this war stands Muma, an Amathu boy born with the mark of good. Stricken by grief when his rebel brother is executed, Muma embarks on a mission to free his people. Infiltrating the city of the Kasuhi, he seeks to bring down their society and free his people. Yet within their midst, Muma confronts a reality that dismantles his beliefs. The once clear line between good and evil blurs, challenging his convictions, his sense of purpose, and belonging. In this spellbinding tale, deception, secrets, magic, gods, and the irresistible pull of destiny propel Muma toward choices that will define the fate of a world on the brink of uncertainty and destruction.
