On Aaron's eighteenth birthday, life as he knows it changes forever. He develops unusual powers and a strange dream haunts him. A homeless man named Ezekiel, who claims to be a fallen angel, tells Aaron that he is a Nephilim, part human and part angel, and the Powers, an army of angels, are coming to destroy him. Aaron at first cannot believe that he has been drawn into a centuries long battle between the Powers and the Fallen, a group of angels who have been banished from heaven. But inexplicable things keep happening around him, his abilities increase and strange people start following him. AKA "The Beginning".
