Set in the future, The Rebellion Era, follows the story of Fatimah Hassan, a rebellious 18 year old gardener. Fatimah has been living her life believing to sleep abused is righter than to sleep abuser, but as automatons invade her home as a part of a technological advance brought forward by the oppressive government, the equation has changed.
Following a personal tragedy, Fatimah flees her lane in favor of finding answers, but soon finds herself implicated in an Uprising launched by a covert organisation, lead by 20 year old Tariq Almasi.
When Fatimah and Tariq cross paths, he offers her a chance to partake in their crusade for liberty. But there is a precious cost she has to pay: she has to forsake those she loves. And more treacherous yet: she is being followed.
Lost in a place people claim is still home, Fatimah wonders if the saying is true: A revolution doesn't only free a country; but the dark secrets that has for long been concealed.
