It's been centuries since Ena, the queen and mother of all genies, crossed the barrier between her world and the human one in order to free her children from the lamps the humans had imprisoned them in. Once every genie was back safely in Jinn City Queen Ena sealed the gates between the two worlds in an event they call The Great Divide. Now a prophecy told many years prior to this event is coming to pass. A prophecy that once set into motion by The Chosen One, a boy in the human world, will mean the unsealing of the gateway. This will allow for the return of magic to the human world and the restoration of a peaceful coexistence between the humans and the genies. But the Shaytan, a race of evil, dark-magic wielding genies, have other plans. They want the human world to remain sealed off from Jinn City so that magic is not restored. The humans would then remain powerless against the Shaytan and the Shaytan could continue with their diabolical schemes. To prevent this from happening, Queen Ena, with the help of her Council of Elders, has devised a plan in order to keep The Chosen One safe. Hopefully their efforts will be enough.
