Infos

Under the ethereal glow of a fractured moon, the world of Dawale thrives, its people interconnected by the rhythmic language of drums powered by lunar energy.  These drums are not mere instruments; they are living conduits, extensions of the Dawale spirit.  But this sacred power is threatened.
Orunwa, a prodigious drummer haunted by a past tragedy, distrusts the unchecked embrace of lunar energy, setting her apart from the elders of her clan.  She finds solace in the complex melodies she creates, her drum a confidante in a world inching toward an unseen precipice.  A chilling conspiracy is brewing within the K'hara, a rival drumming clan seduced by the whispers of a rogue ancestor. They seek to weaponize the moon's power, transforming sacred rhythms into instruments of war.
Orunwa's journey is a deeply personal exploration of grief, responsibility, and the courage to challenge tradition.  Caught between the reverence of the old ways and the seductive call of innovation, she must confront her past and embrace the full potential of her gift.  Her path intertwines with Ikenna, a K'hara drummer and childhood friend, torn between loyalty and conscience.  Their shared history adds layers of emotional depth to the escalating conflict, as they are forced to choose sides in a battle for the soul of Dawale.
From bustling market towns to serene mountain sanctuaries where ancestral spirits dance in the spectral moonlight, Orunwa and her companions journey, gathering support and unraveling the K'hara's insidious plot.  Their quest leads them to the legendary Moonwhisperer, a drum rumored to hold the key to harmonizing the fragmented moon's power.
Amidst whispers of dissent and betrayal, Orunwa must navigate a perilous inner landscape, confronting the echoes of her past trauma and the volatile nature of lunar energy. The climax erupts in a thunderous symphony of drums, a sonic battle beneath the fractured moon where Orunwa and Ikenna face each other, their duel a heart-wrenching clash of rhythms that will determine the fate of their world.  The outcome is not predetermined.  The echoes of the final drumbeat will reverberate across the shattered landscape, a testament to the resilience of Dawale and the enduring power of music to heal, to destroy, and to reshape destiny.
