Synopsis/Details
The episode opens in 1775, on the eve of the Battles of Lexington and Concord, where six men form a secret brotherhood known as "The Order." They perform a blood ritual, binding themselves to a dark pact that grants them supernatural strength and immortality in exchange for their souls. These men, led by John Taylor Zardain I, fight fearlessly in battle, observed by mysterious beings known as "The Reapers," who feed on the souls of the dying. Fast forward to 2030, and we meet Taylor Zardain The Eighth, the heir to the Zardain empire and the current leader of "The Order." Taylor is groomed to take over the leadership of the secret society, but he begins to question the morality and purpose of their actions. His doubts are amplified when he encounters Gozie Johnson, a young woman with a mysterious lineage who survives a supernatural attack that should have killed her. Gozie, an orphan on a journey to uncover her roots, discovers her connection to an ancient prophecy that could challenge the power of "The Order." As Taylor grapples with his conscience and the true nature of his family's legacy, he finds himself drawn to Gozie, who represents everything pure and good that he has been taught to destroy.
