The Story
In the harrowing aftermath of the Rapture, society finds itself crushed under the weight of an authoritarian government. As anti-government sentiment and lawlessness continue to grow, Mandate 1318 becomes the law of the land and requires all citizens to receive a biochip, giving the government ultimate control of its citizens. All citizens who refuse the chip are considered societal deviants and are hunted down by mercenaries and government-sponsored bounty hunters for termination.
​
Isaiah Rhodes, a disillusioned scholar still mourning the loss of his wife during the great cleansing, discovers his mentor and friend murdered. While at his mentor's ransacked home, Isaiah discovers hidden ancient scrolls that hint at the existence of Shiloh, a prophesized sanctuary for the few who remain. Now in violation of Mandate 1318 and on the run, Isaiah finds himself driven by the pacifistic beliefs of his idealistic son, Daniel and reluctantly agrees to join forces with a small group of rebels, including the hardened ex-military officer, now a mercenary for hire, Mac, his business partner Jude, and a mysterious archer named Leah.
​
Navigating a perilous world, Isaiah's loyalties are tested as betrayal from within the rebel group threatens to compromise their mission. With government bounty hunters hot on their trail and seeking to capture the sacred scrolls, Isaiah faces a race against time to protect not only the last remnants of freedom but also the last flicker of hope for humanity.
​
Drenched in intrigue, betrayal, and moral dilemmas, "The Outlands" is a gripping faith-based drama that delves into the depths of human resilience and the sacrifices we make for the greater good. As Isaiah and his band journey toward the elusive Shiloh, they must confront their own inner demons, a government bent on their destruction, and a world left shattered by apocalyptic events.
It's a desperate fight for survival, where the line between right and wrong blurs, and trust is a luxury they can scarcely afford.
