To restore order to the world, the organization known as Overwatch is founded. The rebellion that follows threatens to destroy the world, resulting in the event known as the Omnic Crisis. Omnics are advanced robots that eventually decide they deserve equal treatment with humans. This is no more apparent than in the creation of the omnics. In the not too distant future, humanity has advanced technology in significant ways. For those not familiar with the story behind Overwatch here is a quick crash course. The Hero of Numbani is set in the world of the popular video game Overwatch. After all, the world could always use more heroes. When a terrorist by the name of Doomfist threatens the peace and unity of her people she takes it upon herself to build Numbani a defender. She is gifted with an extraordinary mind and loves to build robots.

In the near future, in the technologically advanced African city of Numbani there is a young girl named Efi.
