This story starts with a few lines about the birth of America. Then, it jumps to 2021, where we meet William, a youngster with a calling and regional patriotism.
Very quickly, news bulletin confirmed, most of the Pacific coastline secedes and the Second American Revolution is underway.
As William ponders what to do with his now upside down life, he learns the awful truth of Japanese internment during World War Two, a horrid fact that seals his resolve.
William pledges to burn his draft card, issued to all males on their 12th birthday, as he realizes that home is where the heart is.
His resolution peaks when the acting Chairman of the Republic of Oregon, also known as Cascadia, summons him to Portland, the provisional capital, to give a speech and change history.
There, his life as an activist begins, making his world and everything around him take a turn he had never, nor could have, anticipated.
Then we meet Rhysling McKenzie, another MC of this story.
He is a first wave Millennial, halfway through his master's degree in history by the time the Global Financial Crisis peaks. He has to drop out and already has massive student loan debt owing to the government.
Rhys watches society unravel over the next dozen years, including Washington's two fatal blunders that initiate the beginning of the end.
Finally, now in 2046, we travel to Nijowari, the super high tech city of the future to meet Adeia, an ordinary girl with no special traits as she enters a world she never knew could exist.
