Jaq, a bookish college student, was raised in a society of various religions with temples on every corner. She scoffs at all of them, focusing instead on her studies. But she's been having recurring nightmares about a little girl named Sierra, and when elements of those nightmares appear in reality, she seeks to understand why. Her world is shattered when she unknowingly fulfills an ancient prophecy from an underground religious group that follows what they claim to be the One True God, Deunai. As followers of the only religion that faces persecution, they expect her to lead them to a great warrior who will end their oppression. The Observers, a secret religious society, fight to silence Jaq and discover the identity of the warrior. The followers of Deunai strive to keep Jaq hidden and safe, all the while looking to her for leadership. But Jaq isn’t entirely sure she’s ready to take on this new identity as someone of importance. She’s just an average college student; how could she possibly lead anyone?
