In the late sixteenth century, during the height of the African slave trade, two young boys, Ahoto and Chicha Kojo of the Nebu' tribe, were abducted and taken to America. To prevent future abductions, and to protect his village from invasions, King Rami summoned the Spirit Gods, who moved the village under the ground and hid them deep within the earth. An unknown illness, caused by toxic waste contaminates which had soaked into the ground from landfills on earth, overtakes one of the children, the grandson of the king, and threatens to take his life. The only thing that can save him is blood that contains the natural immunities found in people who live on the earth. The main criteria, however, is that the donner must be a descendant of the Nebu' tribe. Thus begins the journey of two distant cousins, Kim and Quinton, as they are led by the Spirit Gods to the long-hidden village of the Nebu' to provide healing blood to the young relative. The Rise of the Nebu' takes its readers on a journey of danger, faith and courage, and most of all, love of family. It is through this union of the ancient and the new, the recognition of future harm from the modern world, and the desire to avoid extinction that the Nebu', with the help of the Spirit Gods, must decide to rise to the surface of the earth. It is a journey that, in the end, will unite family from both within and on the surface of the earth -- a mystical family reunion.
