Synopsis:
Part 1
Amid regular people, one troubled, shy, young lady is meant to rise beyond the realm of humankind. This is the journey of Netra, descendant of a strong lineage of Indonesian Dukun [shamans], who wants to live a normal life. But nothing is normal about her life. After experiencing the loss of both parents during her childhood, her nightmares are about to begin. Reaching young adulthood, besides her nightmares, she seems to be developing certain mental abilities that would open the doors to join a Special Unit at the Police Force in Singapore. Another loss strikes her hard, the passing of her only sister, Kirana. To heal her broken heart, Netra travels to live with her grandmother in the land of her ancestors, a small village in the middle of the forest located south of Surabaya, Indonesia. At that remote place, full of Nature's energy, Netra will meet Deceneu, the long-lived White Dukun, and through him she will find answers that would change her life forever. The White Dukun, Deceneu, Zamolxes' most devoted priest, will reveal the true, virtually immortal, nature of her soul: on one hand a regular human spirit and on the other hand the reincarnation of Vlad Dracul, Ruler of Wallachia. A process to complete the symbiosis between her human soul and Vlad's soul was required, a process meant to save her life, a process she didn't finish, yet.

Part 2
The revelation about her true nature sowed a great fear in Netra's heart making her chase her old life in a desperate attempt to be a regular person. And for a few months she did. But Destiny had other plans for her. A Darkness, that has been killing newborns for centuries, was rising violently, threatening the very existence of humankind. Netra and this Darkness shared a very powerful bond and only with Netra's intervention would be possible to banish that Darkness for good. The interrupted symbiotic process would bring her excruciating headaches anytime Netra would be near any manifestation of the Darkness. Once more, she will be travelling to Indonesia where she will understand the extent of her responsibilities and, afraid to keep losing beloved ones, decides to finish what she started with Deceneu..

Part 3
Netra, after a retrospective journey through the memories of a life past at the hands of the Great Zamolxes, the god worshiped by the Dacians, will learn to project her inner space creating the "Sphere", away from anyone's eyes, invisible to any living and dead, a place that would allow her to develop and harness her powers. Soon she will learn from a Master Freemason that there was a prophecy predicting her arrival under the name of Dark Angel, a protector born from the Darkness. Armed with the Flaming Sword forged by the hands of Zamolxes himself, with the training received from Master Deceneu and with external help embodied by the Brotherhood of the Freemasonry, Netra will hold the tools and knowledge to defeat the Darkness that was killing newborns for centuries.  

This is the journey of Netra,  beyond the realm of life,  beyond the realm of death.
