Dawn of All Things begins in the early 2000's with a group of sexually and ethnically diverse friends working through life's issues, including careers, goals, past and present relationships, entertainment venues, and curiosity about religion and the afterlife. Their 'playground' is Washington, D.C. and surrounding communities. The story focuses on a young man who meets a mysterious young woman claiming to be God who is observing her world but not wanting to interrupt the balance and harmony of good and evil. The twist is they were sweethearts in high school. After seeing her preaching to several followers, he becomes consumed with her dramatic life change since he last saw her. The young man wants to know everything about his former girlfriend's evolution and enlightenment, and whether by claiming to be God, she is delusional or psychotic. The longer he searches, the more he falls in love again, uncertain of the outcome.
