“What is this mother that you need to tell me that I do not know and that’s going to change my mind to save the mother who has taken care of me for all these years? At least I owe you this one time mum. Let me take care of you too.” replied the daughter.
“It’s okay my daughter. I see and understand what you are saying for I too could do the same thing for my mother but the thing is; I am not your mother.” said the mother.
“What are you talking about mother? Then who is and, where have they been for all these years?” asked the daughter.
“Listen to me child, it is such a long story that I have kept from you for all these years for the fear of you leaving me for them. For that, I am sorry child but I needed to do that. I love you as my own blood daughter and nothing will ever change that,” said the mother.
“Nothing you will say about these parents of mine that will make me change my mind about
At this moment, the plague had gotten worse and more people were being infected. The King got these news that the epidemic was back and that people were being infected very fast. This time round, the disease spread like bush fire. It all started in this small group of people that lived far from the central town deep along the forest. This is where Jasper’s sister was living with this girl.Kang’ethe got worried about this disease coming back again. He wondered why this disease had to come back immediately after they had a talk with Martin about peace and uniting the two Kingdoms under the rule of one. The question he had to ask himself was whether the gods could want him to give up his rule to Martin as he suggested.This got Kang’ethe so much confused wondering what to do. He still had a little hope that if he approached Martin for help with the herb, he could help without any trouble. It had not passed much time after they had the peace talk and it
On the material day, the wizard and the warriors arrived at the sister’s place to find her in bed very ill. Upon laying eyes on him, the sister was very happy to see that he was still alive. It had been such a long time since they met.“Ooh brother, praises be to the gods for keeping you alive for all these years. I thought you had died for you never came to see me ever since you disappeared. It is good to see you brother,” said Janet.“Good to see you too sister. I came as soon as I got the feeling that you might be in danger. I am so sorry for you sister but I shall do everything to see that you get well.” said Jasper.“Tell me brother, if you told me that you have been leaving in the forest for all these years, I could believe but as I can see, you are from Kamu. What did you do to these people to like you and even give you warriors for escort? That’s the last thing I would expect after what happened during your escap
He was curious to see this girl and to hear her story and what it was that she was looking for in Kamu. Meanwhile, he told the sister that they had done something good to wait for his decision for the peace deal was on. Remember, it was not that this deal was done but he said this because he found the wizard absent and had to wait for him before doing anything.In the days before, if someone was caught around the Kamu territories, they were to be sent to the gallows for execution without any trial. Since Martin wanted to show that they were in terms with Kang’ethe to his people, after this girl told him that she was only after an herb to save her mother, he ordered the girl to be sent to the dungeon for further investigation.The people of Kamu were totally against this and wanted her executed. The next day, Martin went to the dungeon to hear the girl’s side of the story properly. She narrated the whole story to him and told him that her mother was to die o
He drafted a note and left it for his sister Dorothy. This note was saying nothing about his love for Catherine. He was just letting Dorothy know that he had left and never knew when he was to come back. He left the Kingdom to her as the rightful ruler.It is with much disbelieve that I am writing this note to you my princess and to the people of Kamu. I wish to let you know that I have decided to follow that which matters to me most and to fulfill the will of the gods. I have lived for years without having a course for my life but the gods have proven to have a better destiny for me. One that is more satisfying. I am abdicating my kingship as of this day. I leave you as the Queen of Kamu Kingdom. This Kingdom needs a Queen and person like you. I pray that you rule them to the best of your ability. Make sure to change that which I did wrong. Let your rule spread love. Let the people feel love and share it without fear. The people also deserve a life like those of us in power.
Jasper too told them not to worry about anything. He ascertained that whatever Jessica was telling them was the naked truth and that the contents of the letter were true. Their daughter was alive as they were told.“My King, do not worry about the contents of the letter being a lie. It is true that your daughter is alive and she was here. They fled last night with the King or, should I say Martin and nobody knows where they are.” said Jasper to Kang’ethe.“May I ask you wizard, how do you know of the letter being true and how sure are you that Martin did not go to kill her?” asked Kang’ethe.“Don’t you think it would have been much easier for him to kill her while everybody watched than go through the trouble of killing her in the forest. No man can go through such trouble just to kill a woman but for the love of a woman. About the letter, I know that it talked the truth for I am the one that wrote it myself,&rdquo
“Why is it that a powerful King as you could sneak out of his own Kingdom with a peasant like me? What is there for me to offer more than Kamu could to you?” Catherine asked Martin.“Well it’s good that you ask that question. There is more to it than it meets the eye besides the good one feels in power. What good is power without happiness, without love and someone to care about and one who cares about you?” asked Martin.“True. There is not joy in power without happiness but I do not see how someone like me could offer you happiness my lord. I am not worthy of this.” replied Catherine.“Save it Catherine. You are worthy of every bit of my actions. Someone like you can offer me joy when someone like me is in love with you. I will say this that I have said to no woman before, I love you Catherine. Since I saw you at the fortress, I knew that you were my happiness and that the gods had granted me that which matters m
Upon hearing this, Kang’ethe could not believe his ears. He thanked the gods much for this turn of event. The thought of Martin falling for a woman was hard to believe. Since the note said it and Martin had written it himself, Kang’ethe seemed convinced.More so, Kang’ethe could not believe that Martin had fallen for his lost daughter. This was a sign that his dream for peace between the two Kingdoms was about to become true. There was to be no more fighting after this turn of events. Of all the possibilities that Kang’ethe had about this peace, Martin falling in love with Catherine was the least of all.Dorothy was also very pleased and ran to hug Joseph, forgetting that their love was a secret all along. She requested him to rule Kamu by her side as the King. This got majority of the people surprised. It got those that doubted the existence of the gods to revoke their doubts.“My love, praises be unto the gods for this beautiful d
The herbs that the warriors had been sent by the wizard to get could not save everyone. On the process, even some of the warriors were infected by the virus. As the days passed by, the situation was getting out of hand faster than they could cope.Martin and his love arrived at the Lampa Dynasty. Janet was so much shocked after the sight of Kate in the company of Martin. What came to her mind was that, Martin had caught Catherine in the forest and commanded her to take him back to her home. By this time of their arrival, Janet was feeling better. She had been given the herb by the warriors that had been sent by Jasper. The improvement was a sign of a full recovery.She was not pleased by the sight of her daughter with Martin. On arrival, what she thought was not the case. Martin had not forced the girl to show him her home but they had come to bring her the herb. She could not help but wonder how it was that Martin had fallen in love.Wonders shall never seize t
