There is one age-old questionâ Men or women, who are the better leaders? Many, many years ago in Africa, a country existedâ a country called Meramara where queens ruled and extraordinary women warriors known as the Jemaya battled fiercely to defend the land from ravaging enemies and ravenous half-man, half-animal creaturesâ the Half-Beings. But one day, their reign comes to an end when one woman commits an unforgivable sin. In anger, the men seize power from the women in a bloody coup and for the first time in Meramara, a king rules. He is a tyrant whose claim to the throne is being threatened by an ancient prophecyâ a prophecy about a slave girl possessed with a superhuman power who will wrench the throne from his grasp! He is unaware of the prophecy and of the fact that the girl, Zaare is living in Meramara. She is in the home of the handsome Commander of the army, Lord Badriâ fighting to earn his love and hated by his two wives. Badri is used to getting any woman he desires and he wants this beautiful slave girl. But when he unexpectedly loses her to someone else he discovers, to his chagrin that he cannot easily forget the moments they spent in each otherâ s arms. As rebellion stirs and war threatens, Badri has a decision to makeâ would he be a champion for his king or would he risk his life and position to enthrone a woman and bring about the return of the matriarchy? And in one cataclysmic day, the Half-Beings strike and Meramara is tethering on the brink of total annihilation. Zaare has to prove that she is the one who will fulfil the prophecy and dethrone the king. She is searching for the only weapon that can kill these foul beastsâ the axe of Shangan. But time is running out for herself and her people...
