Kamani is a reincarnation of High John the Conqueror and was born with yowagan, the ability to navigate both the spiritual and physical realms, making her responsibilities larger than life. When her mother goes missing in a ritual gone wrong, Kamani will stop at nothing to save her. With the help of her sister, she goes on a journey to discover her true purpose, only to find the answers lie within herself.
