Matile Mala, once the most powerful empire in the black continent of Abengoni, is slipping slowly into decadence, and becoming more and more vulnerable to aggression from the nations and tribes it once dominated. In the capital, Khambawe, ancient rituals endure, dominated by dreams and delusions. As Tiyana, who is both priestess and princess, conducts one such ceremony, known as First Calling, the rite is disrupted by the arrival of a half-wrecked ship from Fiadol, a far-distant land across the sea that is almost forgotten by the Matile. Led by a Seer called Kyroun, the pale-skinned people on the ship seek refuge among the Matile.

 This story spans our present time up to the third millennium. Ancient Future is a fantasy that will hopefully titillate the imagination of the young and old. Its theme is adult, but the children i worked with as a counselor for several years inspired many if its ideas. The novel is a story about loss and hope, pain and pleasure, joy and trepidation. It explores the heights of human aspirations and potential forced to coexist with human greed and selfishness. in a world of great technological advancement that boggles the imagination, there are factors that mar their quest for utopia.

This is a devorah major Archana. Those who read tarot will know the power the Archana holds and how they govern.
