He hardly knew that his day was about to suck. This gold mine was about to be his alone no more.
As he took Gatamu and Peninah to this so-called secure location, something that was never anticipated happened. There happened to be an elder around the parts whom happened to see it all.

In the Warume kingdom, the spy had already told the king about what had happened at the village. He stipulated to the king that his son was seeing a village girl and that they might have gone beyond just seeing each other. The king was worked up but could not react until; he had enough prove that his son was surely bewitched by a village girl. He also made sure that Silviah did not know about it for she could tell her father. Her father’s knowledge about this could not go well for him. It was so not good. He had to do everything to keep it secret. This meant that he could not ask his son about it neither could he show him a negative attitude. Although deep inside he was burning and dying to ask his son about it, he had not another choice but to keep his mouth shut. Silviah had not any clue of what was going on in the palace. As far as she was concerned, she was the apple of the eye for Gatamu. She was the only bean in his githeri I say. Gatamu and his father as well

In the city, money was everything and everything was money. In fact, money was god. Here, in these parts of the country, money talked louder than the voice of the people and any god. The fact that Gatamu had to be betrothed to a woman chosen for him was enough evidence. Gatamu and Silviah’s betrothal was not based on their love for each other neither was it for the good of the people, no. It was all in the service of their parents’ egotistical interests and treacherous ambitions. Mr. Mamiti and the king had been friends for such a long time. They had done many things together; some of which were against the people’s rights and humanity. The main reason for it all being; their greed for power, influence and affluence. The king wanted his son to marry Mamiti’s daughter as a sign of their trust for each other and to keep the noxious secrets buried.

Lucky enough for the Prince, Naitiira thought that it was time for him to own the mine. He visited the city on his own behind other elders back and went to see Gatamu. All he wanted was to let him know that he could help him to see Peninah without having to go to the village. This is just what Gatamu needed to hear. This is just what he was looking for. Naitiira was lucky enough this time because he was willing to spend any amount of money to have Peninah by his side. It was in Warume that money could also buy love or, so they believed. Again, it was money about to put everything back on track for Gatamu. Naitiira visited the city and they had a talk with Gatamu about the whole plan. Since they could not risk being found, they had to do it at the doctor’s place. He was to be sneaking Peninah out of the village and into the city to have them meet. This was the very best news for Gatamu. Meanwhile, he had to relocate and move to some other place. Doctor Kirimi

Peninah later came to open up to the Prince and told him of the news that she was with a child. The Prince was so happy, saw this as an opportunity, and guarantee for them to be together forever as it was his dream and hers too. He could not keep this just to himself. He shared it with Kirimi. Kirimi was so proud too and encouraged him to fight on for this girl. Silviah could not hold on any longer. She could no longer sit back and wait for the Prince to come through. For the time they had stayed together with him, she had noticed that sometimes he could hold on to something without letting go. She decided to have some people trail him whenever he went and find out if they are still seeing each other with Peninah. It was the only thing Silviah could do because she could not risk stepping foot to the village to warn Peninah to keep her hands off the Prince. Indeed, her guess was not wrong after all. The spies told her of the news that Peninah and the Prince were still

At Ruaki village, the elders learnt of Peninah’s sneaking out at night to go see the Prince. They became determined to punish her for it. During the first time she was in relationship with Gatamu, it was not so severe. There was a chance of her forgiveness. After they discovered of her persistence in seeing the prince against their will, they surely meant to pass judgement on her. Makubu knew that to be no good news. He went to see the Oracle and told him about it. He needed the oracle’s help to save his daughter. They both had to do something fast to save her. “Good day holy one,” Makubu greeted. “Good day too Makubu; to what do I owe your visit this day?” “I certainly have a problem that needs your intervention and possibly prayers.” “What sort of problem is this that worries your soul to such an extent that I can tell from the look on your face?” “The elders have found out about my daughter seeing the Prince again and they decide to

At Ruaki township, the drought was very severe but the elders were convinced that it was about to end. This was after they decided not to punish Peninah. For the Oracle, he was just praying that the gods do something about the drought. If it persisted for long after, the elders could begin to suspect being lied to. King Matumu could not risk anything coming between his son and Silviah anymore. He decided to marry the two. They both discussed it with Mamiti and came to an agreement. Consequently, there was no need to waste any more time. The wedding was fixed and the plans were set on track. Gatamu and Peninah continued to meet without a glitch for quite some time. They got too confident that Silviah and the king could not suspect anything. They began meeting more frequently. The excuse was perfect though.

The King also knew that the Prince could not do anything to keep him away from Peninah. He believed that his son was dead. He too had the death syndrome and forgot that if it was faked, he could still see Peninah. I guess the parent child bond is too strong for anything. All he thought of was losing a son. The news that the Prince had died spread everywhere from the city to the village. He was mourned and as usual, his remains where laid to rest. It was one big blow to the people of the Warume dynasty. They had just lost a potential king. At the village, Makubu and Rebecca could not comprehend what they had just heard. Although Peninah knew that the Prince was not dead, she was not to share even with her parents. This one secret had to remain between the three of them only. In disbelieve, they went to see the Oracle for answers. They could not fathom how the gods had let the Prince and savior die. On arrival at his shrine, they met him in dismay as well. Alth
