The Clan of the Fan-Feathered Brow originated in Egypt, six thousand years ago. Nanu, an Egyptian priestess, was chosen by the Enlightened Ones in Koba, the world beneath the sea. Buried alive by a dark, evil priest, Nanu went to her grave carrying secrets that could save the world in the year 2030. In 2012, as many ancient cultures predicted, half of Earth was destroyed by one of the Amor Asteroids. Wise ones who'd gone below to live in the Earth Core Tunnels survived and rebuilt Earth in the Great Re-emergence. Pepper McCullah, bearer of the Fan-Feathered Brow, survived. She became the first woman wide receiver in the NFL. Now, paralyzed from the waist down, she doubts her ability to save Earth from the Greed Kings. Queen Rona of Koba demands she become a Wisdom Retriever. She and the other Wisdom Retrievers must learn all the ancient wisdom necessary to awaken the Enlightened Beings from their Sleep of Bliss within the Sun Quartz Fields. An event foretold for 70,000 years, when the Fields awaken, there will be no more suffering on Earth. A New Dawn of peace and harmony will reign.
