It was morning and the sun was about to set, Nankpiit village folks were all gathered at the Baobab tree in the middle of the village.

Though their gods told them their land has been defiled and In a few days, they will be attacked, there seems to be relief on their faces. Standing among them was a young man who had switches face of a tiger. He roars like thunder and his eyes light like lightning.

The aura around him causes people to panic at the sight of him. The young man was about twelve years of age and that was Pangbe Duutloug the biological grandson of Duutloug Jasuak. 

Pangbe Duutloug was the only biological grandson of Duutloug Jasuak. Pangbe lost his mother at birth and his father Parka Duutloug, died three days to Pangbe's initiation into the dark magic cult.

Parka Duutloug went to get seven heads of a tiger to be used as a ritual in initiating his son into the dark magical cult. The seven tiger heads if gotten will make his son pangbe, more powerful than any person in their village magical cult and beyond.

But luck eluded him when he attacked the seventh tiger. The seventh tiger injured him seriously before escaping.

Parka Duutloug managed to get home with the six heads of the tiger but could not hold it to the next day. He was buried among the great warriors and was mourned for three days and night.

On the third day, the six heads were used and initiated Pangbe into the dark magical cult, this made him very powerful. Although he did not become super powerful, his power was much better than those who are being initiated in the normal way.

When the people of Nankpiit saw the power that Pangbe emitted, they became glad. It was an unseen power in the years of their magic practice.

Besides being initiated by six heads of the tiger, he was also born with special and unique abilities. 

When he stretched his hand, fire arrows flow out. His body occasionally emitted fire. All the people gathered there opened their mouths in surprise and admiration. Even men both old and young who possess magical powers were jealous of his powers.

on the other side of Nankpiit village, in the forest, on the way to Nasan, the Northern edge, a group of people numbering five hundred to six hundred marched towards Nankpiit village. trees were falling under their footsteps and aura.

some of them had swarms of bees on their bodies and grasses were drying under the heat of their footsteps. Their footsteps also vibrated the ground caused dust to fly around them. That was the people of Nasan, it will take them a day to reach Nankpiit village.

At Nankpiit village, they can hear the vibration of the ground at far. Three owls flew into the village, one settled on the southern edge of the village, the other on the Northern part and the third owl settled on the baobab tree in the middle of the village.

The owls started hooting, the folks of Nankpiit were in surprise because owls do not move in the daytime. Those who had magical eyes activated it. They were left in shock at what they saw. the aura that emitted from the group of people marching towards their land was too much to phantom.

Pangbe who was part of those who activated their spiritual eyes roared like a tiger; everyone move to the Northern edge of the village. We must not let them into the village else the village will be left in ruins.

They all marched to the Northern edge of the village, the People of Nasan were five hundred meters away but their aura was felt and they could also feel the aura of the people of Nankpiit.

Because of the crash of various aura from both sides, it caused very riotous dust to rise between the two groups. There was no way an ordinary person without magical eyes could see beyond the riots dust.

The vibration of the ground became violent and caused some trees around to fall. Vibration also caused the sky to respond with thunder. 

when the two groups drew closer to two hundred meters to each other, branches of trees started flowing in opposite directions. the color of the clouds turned red.

Both sides started roaring and charged towards each other!

    They tried to reach each other, but it was like two north poles or two south poles of magnets were to meet. The aura in the two opposing groups repelled! It was as each group was surrounded by an invisible layer pushing them apart. For more than three hours, their magical forces repel! What they could do was to throw fire arrows at each other. Their fire arrows crashed on each other which produced a high metallic sound. The young leader of Nasan, Paarlomang Saab, upon studying the situation, changed his battle field; he activated went up, floating in the sky, he then swung his hand and fast-moving lighting stones fell in the camp of Nankpiit village and killed a few of them while some got injured.

The troops of Nasan were surprised because they never expected the people of Nankpiit to have the counter-power of magical bees. The magic bees' power and its counter-power were rare and could only be conjured up; by the people of Nasan. How was that possible that the people of Nankpiit had the counter charm?Although the swarm of dragonflies preyed to their advantage, the troops of Nankpiit were equally baffled.

    Joabe replied Duutloung, "I am who, am I. You have to find out my true identity."People who had gathered at the enchanted animals' area to buy and sell were baffled about the confidence of Joabe. They knew Joabe was spiritually powerful, but they did not believe he could challenge Duutloug in public without any fear.

Duutloug knew he had caused a lot of atrocities in the past, so he stopped challenging Joabe.Laar Dampang perceived that what Joabe said was probably true but shouldn't have been at the market square, apologized to Duutloug for any inconvenience caused to him.Before Laar Dampang could finish talking, Joabe stretched out his right hand across Duutloug's face and grabbed three fast-moving lightning bristles of a crested porcupine.

    "Stop rebuking Diuk Kombat. It is our brother Tabpak Nou who has pierced himself with a knife in the chest.""I did warn him when he was about going to meet the people of Nasan for the ally. I told him of the possible consequences, but he refused to listen.""He even called me a coward when I tried stopping him. Paarlomang probably survived because he does not know about the blood wall our ancestors built between; us and the people of Nasan."

The reality has taken us by surprise. I don't understand why my father ignored your advice."Upon Paarlomang's words, the crowd was heartbroken and cried with great regret.Those who scolded Chamba Diuk earlier started apologizing to him, but he ignored all of them and said, "why should an an
