Life on Earth hasn't revealed all of her secrets.  One of which shows up at a busy Starbucks in Washington, DC. The store's morning bustle is pleasantly disrupted by an Indonesian shaman who places his hands on the canister of coffee beans and begins chanting to them in a foreign tongue. He is politely removed from the premises.

​

But Romeo, one of the baristas, was the only one who saw the movement in the canister and heard the tiny voices chanting back. His attempts to save them from the coffee grinder is successful but he loses his job in the process.

​​

Hiding in the coffee beans are  magic prehistoric eggs that perform audio-synthesis with the human voice. Their patron shaman recruits Romeo into their stewardship as they quickly rise to their destiny in the music industry, now dubbed the Beanos. 

​​

​But a dark shadow has been on their trail, the Gru'kiba, the prehistoric firebird, whose immortality depends upon a steady diet of the magic eggs. When the Beanos have their sold out out-door concert she finally catches up with them, for her final meal.
