Desta

Desta's story unites with all humanity's in this panoramic, magical, and
metamorphic 3rd phase of his journey to fulfi ll the sacred ancient quest entrusted

to him. As he discovers just how much his life is bound up with the
ancient world, powerful spirits, and his country's glorious past, he must resist
the competing designs of others on King Solomon's twin magic coins.
Desta relies on his wits and the power of the coin as he navigates betrayal,
tragedy, challenges in school, and the intercession of unbidden voices, prismatic spirits, and delivered dictums. As his horizons widen, he must weigh the value and perils of new opportunities brought by visitors from the larger world.

Through it all, with acceptance, forgiveness, and hard-won faith in himself,
Desta is transformed from homeless fourth-grader to celebrated graduate and
the pride of his family. As he transits to manhood, his own accomplishments
and experiences teach him that the world is truly his family, but that his fated
path is his alone.
