The laws of nature cannot be changed. The results will be disastrous only if anyone tries to do it.” AMARA made the same mistake. A witch tried to become a human to get her love. The relationship of love built on her desire, longing, and falsehood made her own life miserable but affected many more lives including her own ‘love’. She gave birth to a demon ‘MARKOOZ’ who pushed the whole world into pain, suffering, and darkness for his hatred, revenge, and power lust. Breaking the darkness, 'SAMUEL' comes as the protector & fights an extraordinary war to regain the identity of his kingdom, its people & their justice! But does the darkness end! Witness an unusual love story, woven by storyteller Ravi Sharma as he will take you through a roller-coaster ride of a magical world, love & revenge madness.

But after being caught hiding his father's lumber from British ship agents, Sam awakes on a prison ship. Trying to make his way home, Sam is instead drawn closer and closer to the Revolution and its leaders, including Paul Revere, Thomas Paine, Alexander Hamilton and George Washington.
