A deadly illness, called The Sleeping Sickness, is striking the nation's children. First comes lethargy and unresponsiveness. Then coma. Then death. No one knows how to stop it, or even what it is.A mysterious, old man shows up at a men's Bible, study claiming to know what is causing the illness - a supernatural evil, a hidden power that operates at the highest levels of the world's institutions. It is too much to be believed, but when each of the men receive a mysterious sign, and when one of their own children gets taken by the sickness, the men are forced to put aside their doubts and step into a world they never knew was possible. Only then can they find the strength to stand up to this impossible evil. Only then can they take up the power, and the call, to become Swordsmen.
