Julius
Caesar wrote of the Celts: The Celts were fearless warriors because
they wish to inculcate this as one of their leading tenets, that
souls do not become extinct, but pass after death from one body to
another.
Seven Sisters. The infamous collection of stars align with
the full moon on Halloween, alighting the sky for a destiny that has
waited centuries. Dru, a gifted but tormented witch living alone on
the coast of Ireland wakes to find Ty, her long-time love,
mysteriously disappeared. In Paris, Katerina, an oppressed but
talented dancer bravely takes the stage in one final performance
before escaping a life of tyranny, looking for a freedom she'd only
known in dreams. Aodh, The Dagda,
a man made of ancient legends, has slumbered for two millennia.
Tonight, when the moon is full and the stars are aligned, he rises
from his temporary grave to find the world is not as he remembers.
His people, his family, his tribe have vanquished, along with the
majority of his considerable power. Chance takes him to Dru, and
together they set out to find the key to reopening his world, whilst
forming a bond of friendship neither has ever previously known.
During their search, Dru learns Ty was no mortal man, but a god with
a prophecy to fulfill. Ty died before fulfilling that prophecy,
setting off a chain of events that would forever alter the future.
Devastated, Dru abandons Aodh and the life that should have already
been hers, and finds herself in the company of the worst sort. She
begins a sordid affair with Kas, a daemon whose insatiable lust for
power is only outdone by his lust for Dru. Separated from the only
friend he knows, Aodh is left to search the world alone for answers.
He meets the beautiful dancer, Katerina, and is instantly smitten. He
stays near her, pretending to be mortal, gaining her friendship. On
Katerina's birthday, just as Aodh is ready to concede to a life of
mortality, Katerina is ripped from him by Kas. Aodh's ideas on
remaining mortal are no more; he has to unlock the secrets to his
world that will open a trove of unimaginable power to save the two
women he loves, before time is no longer in his favour, and he loses
everything.
A
full moon on Samhain acts as the catalyst for the rise of sleeping
ancient myths that have come back to rebuild their lost
civilizations. The Celts of the Tuatha De Danann have waited
centuries for The Dagda seeks the help of a witch, Dru, who has been
groomed since birth for her role in the ancient prophecy. Questions
linger as they try to unlock their world, before it is lost to
outsiders.
