When their estranged Uncle Nimrod invites them to England during one of these shared dreams, they embark on a journey of self-discovery. They learn they are descendants of Djinn with significant powers. However, they must harness these abilities sooner than expected, as the ancient Egyptian pharaoh Akhenaten is not truly dead, and his army of magical djinn threatens to disrupt the balance of power in the magical realm.
