In a land where stories are more than words, a young griot inherits a secret that can reshape destiny. When he discovers an ancient song hidden within his lineage, he learns that it holds the power to alter reality itself. But as colonial forces march into his homeland, bringing fear and destruction, the young storyteller is faced with an impossible choice. Should he use the song to protect his people and risk losing its sacred power forever, or preserve it for future generations who may need it most? The Last Griot is a gripping historical fantasy that blends African folklore, courage, and moral struggle. It is a story of identity, sacrifice, and the enduring power of culture in the face of oppression.
