Moriancumer

Moriancumer is an eight-part limited series that reimagines the Book of Ether as a mythic yet grounded saga of prophets and kings, visions and violence, rise and ruin. Told through the eyes of Ether, the last prophet of a collapsing civilization, the story looks back on the origins of his people and the life of their great forefather, Mahonri Moriancumer, a man who spoke with God face to face.

Fleeing an old world descending into chaos, Jared and his brother lead their people into the wilderness in search of a promised land. What follows is a daring sea crossing, the discovery of a new continent, and the rise of a powerful covenant civilization. But over generations, faith gives way to pride. Kings rule by blood and fear. Prophets are silenced. Cities fall to war. By Ether’s time, the nation is consumed by civil bloodshed, racing toward a final extinction that will leave few alive to remember it.

Told through memory and vision, Moriancumer traces the full arc of a civilization, from divine favor to self-destruction, revealing how power corrupts, how faith endures, and how civilizations choose their own endings.
