In the land of Akozo, Amanda was mostly on her own and most of the times when her fellow maids who were shocked at the revelation of her pregnancy for Akiza tried to near her she would not want it. She stayed indoor most of the time and refused to see even the Queen. The Queen of Akozo rode her dragon back to the land of Dodo where the gods cave was and she went there to inquire from the mother of magic what exactly she was to do concerning the one carrying her son's baby in her womb.

When she had sat with the mother of magic she told her everything she needed to know and at the end the mother of magic sighed deeply, stood up and walked into the inner cave and returned with an object but while she was about to give it to her she stopped halfway and spoke, "You should be careful with the one carrying your son's baby, she has a history that goes against everything you believe and stand for and she is going to help your enemies to overthrow you. Listen my child, you need to secure the t

    The Prophetess and Lume who decided to escape from the land of Diadoma found themselves in a lonely path and there Lume whose belly had become protruded sat down and decide to rest."Well resting is good for you but if you must ask me we need to keep moving" said the Prophetess."This isn't right. We need to find a permanent place to stay until this child is delivered. We can't continue this way else I will be dead before this child is born. Do you know of what I have had to pass through before you found me. I really need my rest. I have been running from the very day I told my husband about my pregnancy""More reason you have got to stand on your feet and fight to the end. You yourself told me the last words that came out of your husband's lips and you know what it means to fail him. He believed in this child even before you met anyone that told you what this child will later become. You know very well without having to be told that most times people aren't going to give up and most

    When Samata returned to the palace of Akozo she went straight to the top side of where her throne was situated and there she hung the staff that was given to her by the mother of magic. She then took her seat and requested for the presence of Amanda. When Amanda appeared before her she then knew that the staff was already at work. *****Aromo was restless and the sister who met her in the forest could tell it by mere looking at her countenance."You need to eat something" the sister said."I don't. This is not what it should be like, i mean I am not supposed to be here. I made a terrible mistake and I can't forgive myself for it" said Aromo."May I know the mistake that you made?" Inquired the sister."You should have heard before now of what transpired between me and Samata. You know of what happened between me and her son which resulted to the breach of my friendship with his mother. I can't stop regretting that incident" Aromo retook her seat."I didn't know about that and I didn'

    Aromo, as young as she was had decided to be responsible and stayed away from the boys that admired her beauty in the land of Dodo. She was the only daughter of her mother and most of the times when the mother would leave her with her younger male siblings she would spend her time teaching them morals. She was decent and had a conducive approach to things and people. It was during one of those days when the children of one of the villages of Dodo would go to the stream to fetch water that Aromo met the man whom she later married and had to kill with her own hands two moons after their marriage. Remembering that incident always made Aromo sick. The incident which took place and time in Dodo and many years ago was always fresh in her memory. She wondered how she was able to pass through it all, the heartbreak, the mockery, the humiliation from people, how she was thrown out of her father's house and made to wonder about Dodo with nothing and with no one. She always felt she would never

    When Aromo entered the palace she was led by two men who were sent to pick her and bring her before the presence of Samata. As Aromo was being led to meet with her she sighted and saw her seated on her throne. She also looked up and saw the staff hanging above her head and she recognised what the staff was known for, what it was used for. When she was brought before her, to stand before her she was left alone with Samata and Samata who remained seated refused to say a word to Aromo. She instead kept glaring at her. Aromo cleared her throat and even though she didn't know what to say she knew better not to keep mute in a situation like this."Samata" she called but there was total silence from the side of Samata. "I know that I'm the last person you want to see but if truth must be told I needed to be here for my conscience couldn't find rest. I had to find a way to come here. I know that you hate me, who wouldn't? You are right in hating me for even I myself I hate myself for what I d

    The Queen of Akozo was on the balcony as she watched Aromo ride out of the palace. It was then that it downed on her that Aromo meant her words when she said she was going to look for Lume. She sighed deeply and went back to retake her seat. She then thought about her past and how she came to meet with Aromo. It was all a great memory and she would always wish her friendship with Aromo never got to the point it was now.******The soldiers sent out to find Lume and the Prophetess left the palace of Diadoma being led by Cury. Inside the hut where the Chief Guard was lying on the bed he got up and looked out through the window to find out that the soldiers had left in pursuit of Lume. He felt like a fool, for ever leaving the side of Lume and causing her to loose the trust she had in him. He wept bitterly wondering why his wife never for once mentioned that she had a sister. She lied she didn't have a family whereas she had one and the person she had as a sister was none other person bu

    The men of Diadoma that pursued Lume and the Prophetess under the leadership of Cury suddenly began to talk amongst themselves in whispers, with some of them complaining that the new Chief of Diadoma had to assign them a woman to lead them In a mission meant for men. At the mention of this Cury who was eavesdropping on them suddenly stopped her horse and got down. The men also stopped and wondered why she stopped all of a sudden. They wanted to know what was happening but she turned to face them and then she began to clap and to smile. The men found her action rather strange and funny. They looked at one another and then one of them asked, "What is it?""Nothing, I'm just clapping for you men, men right? I have been listening to your conversations and it interests me. I want to ask" she stopped clapping, "who amongst you is not comfortable that I'm the one leading this chase?" Five men got down from their horses and one of them spoke, "Is it not true and also irritating that a woman i

    "You are going to have to play along. We have entered this city of Abo and we are not familiar with this place. Follow my leading and do not be scared" it was the Prophetess who was assuring Lume in whispers. One of the men, the same young man that spoke with the Prophetess turned to her and smiled. "We know you and we are not here to harm you, instead we have brought you to someone you need to see" the young man's facial expression changed and he suddenly buried his face in his palms and the moment he withdrew his hands he was no longer the same person but someone the Prophetess had known for years. The Prophetess was shocked as she stood there staring at the man unable to find her voice and speak. Lume who saw what happened couldn't say a word either for she was too dumbfounded to speak. Tears suddenly welled up the eyes of the Prophetess and she called his name, "Abi, is this you?""It is me my dear. It's been a long time" he smiled. The Prophetess looked around to see the faces o

    "He really loved you" Lume admitted."Oh yes he did and that was the beginning of his downfall. You see my dear when I saw him standing there before me I was lost and i couldn't find my voice. I never thought i would get to see him again. When I looked and saw his face i had that strange feeling that normally came up to me whenever he approached me. On that day, when he entered my shrine I looked at him standing by the door. I needed him to stay but I knew too that letting him stay was going to be the end of his life; no man was to be seen with the Prophetess inside the inner chamber of her shrine. He stood there on that day and looked like he was going to hit me. I could feel his pains, his worries, his fears, the heartbeat in his chest. I didn't know the right words to utter to calm him down. Then came his voice, his breaking voice, "So they succeeded in taking you away from me Miri" I couldn't answer. My throat was heavy and couldn't produce any word. I wanted him to feel better bu

I mean wasn't because of her your only son died? You stand to accuse me" Lume then stood up. "Are you insane? How dare you?" Samata slapped Lume across the face and she stood up in anger. "Go ahead and kill me, isn't that what you are known for? You only but kill, you kill and your dragon kill, that ancient evil creature that breathed fire on the innocent children of the earth.

    Seated on the throne Samata was moved to think again, the very day that Aromo challenged someone in her presence. She didn't know the person was a Prophetess of Dodo and that day they saw hell. Seated on the throne of Akozo she kept thinking so hard about everything and how far she had gone with Aromo. She knew without being told that things weren't the same again between them, with Aromo being responsible for the death of her son Akiza. At this thought once again she stood up and went outside. She was approached by one of the officials who stood before him and asked, "We are being told that things aren't the same again by the other officials who are no longer near us but stays outside the city. They say we do not have an army again and we do not know what else to do. Is it not a thing of pain that most times we neglect the things that matter most. Now that your dragon had burnt to ashes the army that should be in the camp which other army are we to use?""Use and do what?" Samata ask

    When it was evening the two arrived in the godscave and the mother of magic looked up to her face, the face of Samata and then spoke to her after sometimes. "You are not just a person from the land of Akozo but you are royalty and the child you carry is royalty too. At this Aromo looked at Samata and wondered what else she hid from her. The mother of magic continued, "You are a Queen from the royal home of Akozo. How true is this?" "You are right mother of magic. I came straight to Dodo from the palace of Akozo" admitted Samata and this touched Aromo who was forced to ask, "What else are you hiding from me Samata?""I never hid the part where I'm the Queen of Akozo or where I was the Queen for I'm no longer a Queen, but you remember you never gave me the opportunity to speak further as you asked me to leave your house immediately. What else would you have me do, force myself to stay and have you throw me out by force?"That night Aromo and Samata went to Aromo's house and while they

    Having left the place of Aromo Samata headed towards the next village in the same land of Dodo. She planned to find a way to stay where no one would be able to question her about herself so deep or be able to read her mind and suspect her. On the other hand Aromo headed to the godscave in the land of Dodo. In the godscave was where the mother of magic was staying and there she has disciples whose duties were to carry important messages across to the sisters of magic across the world. When Aromo arrived the godscave she met the mother of magic already seated and expecting her."I knew you were coming. It already reached my ears before you arrived. Is it not a new thing that you came on a day like this? You hardly come at a time like this" The mother of magic was saying."I'm sorry but coming over here to see you all I wanted to do is to ensure that I'm doing the right thing. Mother of Magic, I just want to know if I'm doing the right thing or not. I want to know if someone I accepted

    "You believe in the earth god and also in your mother but between these two whom do you believe in more?""Of ourselves our mother. She founded the sisterhood and it was only when she found it and initiated us that we began to know what it means to have freedom. We were before those who were broken, with some of us made to suffer in the hands of the officials of the King of Dodo. Even though the King isn't a bad one his governors and commanders of his armies are bad and did unspeakable things to those of us that found solace in the sisterhood. We hadn't joined then and it was when we came together, each of us with her own story of how she suffered in the hands of the governors, commanders and other officials of the palace of the King. We then decided that we had to join our mother whom through we had seen raw display of power. We then went ahead and had in our minds to create a common goal, never to allow anyone intimidate us again whether man of woman. It worked for us because we gre

    The next day after she had buried the dead bodies she found herself thinking of what next to do. She stood up once and paced and then in that same morning, very early in the morning she saw a great number of young men and women with clubs and with other weapons troop into the compound because they had been told that the owner of the house had been killed. Samata did not know how they got the information. They went into the house and dragged her out. One of them said it would be a waste of spectator if they killed her in the house instead it would be worth what she committed if they could drag her to the open market where the whole people would witness her death. The rest agreed to this and then they dragged her out of the house and headed with her to the market square where they intended to have her stoned to death.When the people had gotten to the market with Samata and her baby they pushed them to the ground and were getting stoned to stone her death when a voice of someone was hea

Go ahead and kill me" Samata shortly stepped out with her fingers bloody. she had killed the Seer.Goge and Arore with the Prophetess arrived the Sea and boarded a ship. Meanwhile where Lume was with Aromo she had begged her not to do what she had decided to do, begged her to please spare her life and not enter the land of Akozo with her but then it wasn't what was expected by Lume because Arome had made up her mind and nothing was going to stop her."Don't tell me not to take you to Akozo Queen..If you are left here or with your daughter and those with her who claim to be doing the right thing what good will you do for her or for anyone. You know why I must take you to the Queen of Akozo? Because already I'm owing her, owing to the fact that because of me her son Akiza died. I want to make it up to her my dear and there is only one way to do that, to present to her that which she

    There was total hatred from Samata to the rest of those in the palace. She began to see everyone in the palace as the problem she had had. First she hated the King and vowed she wasn't going to have anything to do with him again, then she hated his advisers believing it was they who led him astray and then he hated Rimma whom she believed was responsible for the King's coldness towards her. As days passed by, days turned to weeks, weeks to months and after Samata gave birth to Akiza she decided she was going to kill the King by herself and upon killing him she would instill her son Akiza on the throne as crown Prince but she planned to kill him secretively, then kill Zakiza after some months or years and then install her son as crown Prince.The day she planned this she went to the King's room to inspect it before the night came. At night she crept into the King's room and having met only him there, having planned to kill him alongside His wife and the new born baby Zakiza she didn't

    The King of Akozo that night didn't sleep a bit. He didn't go to see Samata in her room and even if he had gone Samata wouldn't have opened the door for him for she was very angry with him that night. Rimma didn't say a word until when she was sure the atmosphere was conducive enough. "My darling. Why are you so shocked that you left your food unfinished in the dining?""My dear, I wasn't hungry anymore. You won't understand" said the King"I do understand and I understand that you are confused right now as to who to love most but that shouldn't be so, should it? You are married to both of us and we now have have children, I mean when she has...""That's not the issue Rimma, that's not the issue. I neglected that woman because she couldn't take it. I never thought it could be possible again but now everything has changed. She has taken in and it's just something else for me now. Here is what will happen right now; I will be going to meet with those who are going to advise me on what I
