Elijah McDonnell, also known as the religious terrorist "Rebel Knight", must evade the empire that has been forged after the return of the Grigori.

In season 1 we see Elijah struggle with his role as leader and reluctant prophet for the resistance faction The Remnant, as they evade high-tech government hunters, protect the innocent against ruthless cannibals, and help each other find loved ones in a post-apocalyptic world set in 2018.—Aaron McDonald
