Synopsis
Novic, an immortal priest of the Sayneth on the planet Grovea, defies his matriarchal society by giving his son a name. The act divides the boy in two: his mother knows him as T-Mo, while his father calls him Odysseus, and he grows into a Jekyll-and-Hyde figure. The family's life moves from Grovea to Earth, where T-Mo marries a woman named Salem and they have a hybrid daughter, Myra. The story is told through three women: Silhouette, Salem and Myra. As his darker side presses on them, the choices they make begin to threaten their very existence.
