RUNBACK TOWN

Deep in the heart of Africa, where ancient baobab trees whisper secrets to those wise enough to listen, three young children - Dessie, Demo, and Zafi - embark on extraordinary adventures that blend African myth, folktale, and magic. Guided by the spirit of her ancestors, Dessie awakens the spirit of the land through dreams, unlocking the power to traverse forgotten realms, communicate with legendary creatures, and uncover the mystery of an evil organization thirsty to exploit her and children with similar powers. From enchanted dreams to talking animals, from bustling villages to unknown lands, RUNBACKTOWN is a thrilling adventure series that celebrates African folklore, resilience, and the magic of childhood imagination.

Zafi is the eldest of the unlikely trio. The young Maasa prince awaiting to reclaim his righteous place on the throne. 
Tall, dark and stoic, Zafi doesn't like to use words, but is good with his hands. Kidnapped and woken up next to the strangest pair of twins, Zafi has one thing on his mind; returning to Maaisaland.

Nairobi is a young fierce Kikuyu girl, whose passion in life is only to defend and protect the cattle of her land from greedy Maasai warriors. Trained from birth to fight, she not only embodies the spirit of love, but soon finds it herself.
