The Bolontiku fiercely want to inhabit Paradise, or as mankind calls it... home. This war has raged for many millennia as the Bolontiku try to corrupt, coerce, and destroy mankind to take what we have been given. Every time the Bolontiku has attempted to rise, the Balam and the Chosen have been there to stand and fight. This generation's Chosen have not been trained as long or as intensely as in previous generations. Are they strong enough to force the Bolontiku back to the depths of the Underworld or will they fall? David Greystone, an Agent with the FBI, is the leader of the Chosen. Will he be able to lead the Chosen against the evil that is coming or waver in his convictions and lose everything that we know? Follow the story of the Chosen as they raise up and fight against the Bolontiku for the fate of humankind.
