While working on her latest game, Najja takes a unique and murderous approach to ritual. After having his wounds appraised, Terence has all the guidance he needs for the 6-dimensional journey ahead.
Terence's wound MANDY is maaaaad loud - and has been talking out of pocket to Najja - so Terence attempts to silence that dude… forever. Najja prepares for the ritual to end, or begin, all rituals - which apparently requires a very specific hat.
With her other man Xavier in tow, Najja heads out of town to her "sister's" re-birthday to embark on a spirit wave collusion (F.K.A. Ritual) to be reborn, revealed, and healed. But the ancestors always got a trick up their sleeve - trust and believe.
Apparently you gotta use time to move in space, so while working on Ajjan, Terence and Najja hit a roadblock that neither flight nor teleportation can solve - and turn to couples therapy for guidance. Later, they plan a parallel journey back to The Source.
As they work to reimagine their relationship to their ancestral lands, Terence and Najja each wrestle with their families' complicated histories, culminating in Terence's examination of the archetypal fable at play - the Parable of the Pirate and the King.
As her funders press for the release of Ajjan, Najja finds herself in the midst of an initiation in which she learns what it means to be king. After the creator of BBHMM is accused of fraud, Terence and Nance family members make contact with an ancestor for guidance.
