Meanwhile a sacred caravan of Tuareg down in the Sahara starts its long journey to reach the exact same destination.

The ship is veiled in secrets and rumors of a cursed cargo. Edoardo gets close to reveal its hidden truth, which leads to the ancient secrets of Africa, whereas the price is enormous: one has to sacrifice his life, the other one has to face his haunted past. This journey will change the lives of all who got involved forever.
