The Chief Guard who escaped from the land of Diadoma found himself in a strange place and he dismounted the horse he had escaped with. He looked about him and walked to the stream that he saw. Having been so thirsty bent over the water and was about to scoop it with his hand when he saw someone standing behind him through the water. He had risen all of a sudden in order to fight the person but the stranger was faster as he used the bottom of his sword to strick him to the ground and he fainted. The man looked sideways, bent over him, picked him up and lowered him on his huge shoulder before he then walked away.

When the Chief Guard opened his eyes he saw himself lying in the midst of strange looking men and he was startled, tried to get up but discover his legs were tied. He was helpless. The leader of the men spoke to him.

"You should not be scared, I mean for now. Our discussion is going to be brief and then you will be on your way" the leader was speaking.

But when she got there she was greeted by a sight that shocked her to the brim; there lying down at the mouth of the cave was the mother of magic who had died. Samata could not believe it at first but when she knelt before her cold body and felt it she cried out in pain. Her dragon could see her owner cry and he began to walk closer to her, bent over her to console her. Samata remained seated beside the corpse and knowing that she died out of a stab wound wondered who might have done this. She knew without having to be told that something that an enemy had done this. Her duty was to discover who did this. She knew also that it was time for the sisters of magic to assemble in the godscave and having been the first to discover the corpse it was left for her to begin to send the invitations through signals. But first she needed to take her time and investigate the cause of the death of the mother of magic.******Am

    Lomi was found dead on the mountain of Para where he and his army had had a clash with the army of Diadoma. The Diadomas hardly die and this have them an advantage. When Aromo saw their corpse she told the Prophetess and Lume the story of herself and Ralf and how Ralf was killed by Lomi."We don't need to stay around here for too long. If the Diadomas that killed this army are still around we wouldn't want them to come back and find us here. We need to start now and move" Lume spoke and they left. They were moving away from the battlefield when the signal came from the sky. It was only Aromo that could see that signal, the signal sent by Samata who was still at the land of Dodo where she had decided to call for a meeting of the sisters of magic to announce the death of their mother. When Aromo saw this signal she turned to them and spoke, "I may have met with the god of the earth yet it is demanded of me that I appear there with the rest of my sisters to know why the urgent call for t

    When the Prophetess and Lume got to meet with the Chief Guard it appeared that their meeting didn't go down well with the Prophetess who kept on insisting withing herself that something was wrong with the way they met with him after so many days. When the Chief Gaurd who already discovered the dissatisfaction of the Prophetess he decided to take her aside and try to find out why she kept looking at him as if he had done something wrong."I do not know why you are not comfortable with my rejoining you and my Queen Lume but I don't remember having any issues with you or with my Queen. It was you and her that left me back there in Diadoma without letting me know where you were going to or why you were leaving. I had to struggle to make ends meet and I had to escape when the new Chief whom you installed tried to kill me. Please I do not have any skeleton in my cupboard and all I want to do is to be part of the history which Lume is going to create with the child inside her womb"The Proph

    The sisters of magic were so much angered by the death of their mother and more so were enraged by the fact that it was Cury who killed her. One of them spoke in distaste, "and she loved Cury and trusted her while she was alive, always talking about how much she cared about her. Is it not a thing of pain that it is the same Cury that ended her life? I would give anything to lay my hands on that fool""Why do we need to lay our hands on someone like that, someone who is so insane to understand the laws that guide the sistershood? She went too far trying to prove herself. We are not going to kill Cury because we won't be able to kill her. She has the staff of authority which belonged to our mother. Let us be calm and think of a way to retrieve it from her first" Samata had said. The meeting ended in a hour later and the sisters of magic dispersed in anger.When Samata returned to the land of Akozo on her dragon she was told that a lady by name Cury paid a visit. She was shocked when she

    When Cury left the land of Akozo she had headed out, knowing that Amanda must have escaped from the palace. She knew however that if she was running she would be running South. She knew this by discernment. Aromo left the land of Dodo after the meeting with the other sisters of magic but never got another chance to have a discussion with Samata for she believed she would not have that discussion with her any longer even though she didn't have to show Samata she was a changed person, but was she...a changed person? Before she left the godscave after the mother of magic had been laid to rest by those who were assigned that duty she was met by one of the sisters whose countenance wasn't welcoming and the sister stood before her and looked at her from head to toe before chuckling."And what is that?" Aromo was asking."Someone appeared to you not long ago. You have started listening to strange voices" the woman then reached with her hand to touch the left ear of Aromo and withdrew her h

    As the dragon kept on raining fire on the people of Diadoma the ones that were yet to be greeted by the fire from the ancient creature readied their archers and under the command of one their army commanders began to fire up arrows. When it was clear the dragon was immune to arrows the giants of Diadoma were released. They were humans but were giants who could throw heavy rocks far into the sky, far enough to disappear into the clouds. When they stepped out they were armed with heavy rocks. When Samata saw this she knew she needed to fly the dragon away. The giants didn't give that chance as they began to fly up the rocks against the beast. The dragon was enraged and he growled before turning towards the space where the giants were occupying and began to descend against them with fire fuming from his mouth. When the giants saw this they didn't budge but kept on flying up the rocks. Some of the rocks hit the beast but it kept coming down in full force. He descended heavily on the giant

    While this conversation was ongoing between Samata and Cury Amanda and Kal had to find a way to escape from the cell. The both of the could be seen running through the forest. They could still hear the growling sound of the mighty dragon but they refused to look back as they continued with their escape. *****Aromo was back. Lume and the Prophetess were shocked to receive her back and they hugged her. It was as if they had seen a long lost sister of theirs. The Prophetess was most happy as she believed the god of the earth was doing a great job, bringing together those who would be strong enough to protect the baby Lume was carrying in her womb. "You came back" The Prophetess was happy."Why wouldn't i? I had been a secret follower of you right from moment you became the Prophetess of Dodo. I never allowed you see how much I respected you but I always had the desire to know what you were upto and the more that I did the more I realised that it was never as easy for me as I intended.

    When Samata went back to the land of Akozo she sat on her throne and there was tears in her eyes. Her generals didn't need to ask what the problem was. There was a rumour already that the maid Amanda whom she had hoped on to bring forth the seed Akiza her demised son planted in her was gone and she ran taking with her that which was used to tie her down. One of her generals Dinka was the one that summoned the courage and walked up to her where she was seated."My Queen, the rest says, "we can't go to the Queen now because the Queen is angry and bitter and the Queen can kill whoever disturbs her peace. I am not afraid to die" when he said this Samata looked up at his face and waited. The young general continued. "My father served your late husband, Akiza's father for years and your husband respected him not because he held so much power in Akozo but because he always had the courage to ask him questions that were heavy to answer. I have not come here bearing fear but the audacity to as

    "The dragon rained fire in every corners of the earth" boasted Samata but Aromo raised her head and spoke, "In Ngiga it didn't rain, fire didn't rain my mistress" Samata then looked at Lume, "And you, you who married my mortal enemy""My husband wasn't your mortal enemy, your mortal enemy is the one kneeling before your side. 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

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.

    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
