Brief synopsis:
In eons past, before the awakening of Man (Adam) a great rebellion and war took place in the heavens. At the center of the conflict was the creation of a new realm, the new god-like creation that was to occupy this realm and the ultimate overthrow of the Kingdom by one who believed he could ascend the throne without challenge. It was a war so fierce that one-third of the beings from this realm were defeated and cast out losing their positions and entrance to it forever.
Present Day: Two and a half years ago after the announcement of the (M.E.U.) Middle East Union’s newly appointed Czar of peace, 32% of the world’s population vanished off the face of the earth without a trace or warning. On the tail-end of this event, with world-wide panic, religious fanaticism and geo-political tensions rising globally the major governments of the world were finally forced to disclose the existence of, and involvement with, extraterrestrial life. Shortly thereafter, the "Creators" made their return.
They claimed responsibility for the sudden and mass disappearance of nearly 2.5 billion souls, calling it a “relocation.” Stating the action was necessary to bring peace to a world hindered by those who held a flawed view of their religion incompatible with the universal oneness of all beings and who would in their words: "hinder peace on planet earth.” They would however, "allow events to stay their course, now that the social, moral and religious barrier for human development had been taken out of the way.” There would be, “no overwhelming interference from them."
Wars subsided, rebellions were put down, governments still maintained their sovereignty and a new religious system arose from the ecumenical movement which gained popularity in the early 21st century which flourished after the relocation. It is headed by the New World Church in Rome. With this pretext in place, our story begins.
Cyrus Peters has been searching for his father since the sudden removal of billions of people from around the world. One day a package arrives at his home containing two books. One, a small, odd metallic book; the other, his father’s journal. While searching through the journal he comes across a slim drive hidden in its lining. On it is an audio file with a cryptic message in reference to the small metallic book: "Return to God before the Fallen One finds."
Believing his father may still be alive, Cyrus sets out to find him by using the journal as a guide and in the process learn how to return the book. However, little does he know that his quest will bring him closer to a face-to-face confrontation with the Fallen One himself, who has been searching for the one thing that could alter man's destiny and fulfill his insidious plan, the possession of "The Book of the Sealed."
With time ticking down and a world still in flux, an imminent showdown between the forces of good and evil will throw us headlong into an adventure that will leave you on the edge of your seat as our hero’s quest moves him toward the ultimate truth in This Time and Age An End-Time Musical.
