Synopsis/Details
In a future where the Earth is devastated by catastrophic flooding, remnants of humanity struggle to survive on floating arks. Amidst this dystopian world, faces its biggest threat when a rebellious leader, Gunny War, aims to hoard scarce resources for himself. At the center of this conflict lies Ahmed, a clever young boy.
The tale kicks off with Ahmed stumbling upon an ancient legend, Sky City, and its significance in humanity's existence. As Ahmed digs deeper into these secrets, he catches the eye of Dawn, a resilient council member stripped of her authority. Together, they unearth a plot that endangers not only Sky City but the entire delicate ecosystem of survivors.
Ahmed's journey intertwines with the challenges faced by others: Lawrence, a mysterious individual with a hidden motive; Gates, a former Renegade seeking redemption; and Thea, a brave soldier haunted by her past. Each character brings their unique strengths and weaknesses to the battle against Gunny War's oppression.
Tensions rise as Gunny War's troops track Ahmed's ark, leading to daring rescues, epic clashes, and unforeseen alliances. Ahmed's bravery is put to the test as he navigates dangerous waters—both literal and metaphorical—filled with deceit, sacrifice, and the unwavering pursuit of justice.
As the narrative unfolds, themes of redemption, self-discovery, and the resilience of the human spirit take center stage. Ahmed's mission transforms from a struggle for survival into a quest to restore hope and shape a new future for Sky City and its people.
