Set in old Benin, Oyo and Ife, the story follows the lives of those ancestors who re-invented Writing, intuitively received the concept of Monotheism and stumbled upon evidence of the earth's pre-historic past. Aremo, the tragic prince of Oyo who must die with the King. The Edaiken, Crown prince of Benin, who set out to abolish the pantheon of gods. Meet Aro, the priest of Ife who unearthed the ancient knowledge buried in the obelisk of Oranyan. These were among the 'fools' of their time. Those who ventured into uncharted territories.
