"No pain, no gain. That's what I heard him say". "These were father's last words. Roy what do you think about it? I have been searching for the pain and the gain. Of what relevance are these two words?" Roman questions Roy as they walk down the hill.It is a cold morning, the dew softly touches the face of the earth as a distinct voice is heard from a far. A distinct voice turns to a chorus while the chorus turns to a song. The song goes thus "Oh come on yee faithful, joyful and triumphant. O come in o come in to Bethlehem. Come and be holy. Born the king of Angels. O come let us adore him. O come let us adore him. O come let us adore him Christ the Lord".These voices are the voices of some devoted Christians singing along the majestic Bora hill.Roy says to Roman. "Let's go join them. We need to have a prayer session. Having it with them will be magnificent." Roman declines and says "it's day break. We have to continue. Let's pray while we walk. After all, God answers all prayers

With the fear of his old colleague's state in his mind, Thoms leaves to join up with the thirty men on ground to escort him through his mission which seems deadly."I am kind, wise, brilliant, funny and can be very deceptive as well. I have travelled far and near. I have been to the south, north, east and west. I have never failed my people. I have never failed my Kings. This is why the crown trusts me at all times to deliver and this is why I am always assigned important, difficult and delicate missions. I am ready to serve at all cost and in any whether. I will gladly sacrifice my live a thousand times for the progress of our lands." Thoms the Wise says. He is talking to Jordan, the head of the thirty men allotted to escort him on his mission to Kalif Empire."Jordan replies by saying; I have heard about you, I have seen you and read about you. I have been longing for this moment. This moment to walk and work with you" He giggles.Jordan is a huge and fearless soldier. He single han

The day breaks so fast. It is the early hours of another promising day. The weather is so clear but cold still had its way.The effect of the cold is felt to the teeth of everyone in Kalif."My man. What's up? What is going on?" This is Mendel's voice. He is addressing one of his right hand men who seem not to be grooving with the vibe. The vibe in this sense is the intake of palm wine and some very hot fish. The man answers Mendel, saying; "I need something different. Something hot. Not palm wine." "But the fish is very hot my man. Take it and let us all feel very warm and good." The man responds saying; "I need tea. Hot tea with this same hot fish. It will gladden my heart, mind, body and soul." Laugh becomes the instant order of the day as all men present laugh off with great energy. If present at the scene, one could easily notice the serious cold as everybody present are padded in thick clothes.Mendel quickly instructs the attendant to get the man a very hot tea. The man becomes

"We charge into the lands of the Mezcals today. We bring them down. We fight with all we have got. We use all our fire power to destroy them in this single battle. I want it to be quick." King Roman urges his generals."You need not lead my King. I will do that on your behalf. I will come home victorious with less casualties.' General Roy says. "Do not worry your head. I want to be there. I want to fight as well alongside my men. Victory is sweetest that way. You of all people know this my dear Brother." King Roman says."I understand. Your wish is my command my Lord."The Mezcal mission begins. King Roman himself leads his troop though he is being assisted by General Roy, General Benson and General Stead.Somewhere in between Alberom and Hudem is a relatively sized territory. These people are so ferocious and aggressive in all spheres. They are carnivores.These attributes of theirs invites a lot of hostility to their land, people and governance. The Mezcals are selfish in nature. T

King Lucas takes the chief's life right at that spot because he could not control his anger. He feels he has been betrayed by one of his chiefs who is supposed to lighten up his path whenever the path becomes dark. The fact that it was the most senior chief completely pissed him off."Rua let us bury this useless man. He should have given me this as a manual before I went on that unification journey. He did not even seek to confirm it when I came back. This old man was a big fool. You know that Rua! We will call for a prompt meeting as well and all chiefs must be present. We have to clean up this mess at one before it gets out of hand."King Lucas sometimes easily loses his mind over anything and everything. But this is not to say he is less intelligent. He is a very smart King. He had the picture in his head. He knew the chief will pass the information to his other chiefs as soon as he departs the scene. His thinking was that he had to kill the chief to save his image. He wanted to k
