The Blessing - Adah Kennon

. .

Résumé :
Sun City, the first plane capital and home to light-worker deities, has been invaded by dark-workers led by Karoon, a tyrant with blood-red eyes who has his own twisted agenda. When Karoon outlaws the open expression of feelings and emotions, light-workers retaliate by suppressing the very things that define them. In doing so, they forget how to make their thoughts real, existing only in their dreams and fantasies. Ra is among those afflicted. He is the youngest sprite reared by Jacinth as part of the first grooming tribe of the second plane colony of the Heavenly Realm. Ra must find a way to awaken in himself what he is destined to teach others. More of a rebel than a hero, he fights for others, even at risk to himself. With help from three disenfranchised deities and a human mentor, he journeys to the island continent of Jamaica on a planet called Earth to learn how a group of tech-savvy humans resisted the tyrant's vibe. He brings that secret back home. But the dark forces discover how easily he is distracted by his desire for adventure, excitement, and erotic gratification. They challenge him. Will he lose his way in deity Lynette's dreams of romance, warm kisses, and playful tickles? Perhaps he will give in to the thrill of Vera's lustful gratification. Or will he fall victim to the self-serving passion that is deity Maat? Too many voices vie for his attention. Which one will he hear? The Almighty, creator of deities and humans, remains hopeful. Ra already has The Almighty's favor, but Ra must prove he is faithful to his vibe. Words might lie, but vibes always speak the truth.
