Origins (The Reshift Pulsers Saga)

The Pulse was never just a legend. It was waiting for them.

In 1920s Cotonou, lifelong friends Vincenza Eghosa and Kivon Kingsley discover an ancient symbol pulsing within a sacred tree, awakening a legacy their families have guarded for generations.

Chosen by the Pulse and forced onto separate paths, they spend ten years training for a destiny neither fully understands while the Revolters hunt the ancestral emeralds bound to them.

Now reunited, Vincenza and Kivon must uncover why they were chosen before their enemies gain enough power to threaten both the hidden world and the human one.

Because the greatest danger may not be the power awakening within them.
