In every culture around the world, there is some sort of legend about a supernatural hero that appears and saves the day. Have you ever wondered what it must have been like to be that savior of the world? Wouldn't it be nice if we could understand what their life must be like? Hear it from their point of view? Finally we can. Chris has become a messiah. But being a messiah was not something that came naturally to him. For as many hearts he was able to uplift, there were just as many that he crushed. For every person he enlightened, there was another left in the dark. Now Chris' last wish is to tell his story to you. Hopefully you won't make the same mistakes he did in trying to save the world.

One word describes Louisiana fifty years from now after climate change intensifies: Soaked. A nearly silent Cajun man is the last speaker of Louisiana French but doesn't know what he is saying. A Vietnamese woman recovering from the trauma of war looks for home in a hurricane. A farmer gambles his inherited land on the best marijuana Louisiana has ever known. Laughing in the face of oblivion, lending a hand to the hopeless, adapting in spite of tragedy, and enduring when everything else is gone, is what the people of Louisiana, Toby LeBlanc's people, do best.
