A few months later after the Prince’s supposed death, the king visited doctor Kirimi. He did not visit to threaten him this time but to ask for some help. Doctor Kirimi gave him the news that Peninah the village girl was pregnant of his son. This was the best news the king had heard from his son’s demise. Without waste of any time, he had to find this girl.
He knew that she was carrying the only heir to the throne. This time, the customs did matter no more so to speak. Here was a chance for him to be father and grandfather again. He could not just let it slip away. His son’s demise got him back the missing shreds of humanity. He journeyed to the village to see Makubu and talk about it.
Doctor Kirimi knew that their plan had just worked perfectly. Gatamu too could not believe that his father was going for the village girl he hated so much. On arrival at the township, the king talked to Makubu about the fact. He explained to him how he was stupid and blamed himself for

From a distance, there, was the most appealing sight to the eyes of any man. Far left on the way into Kibich City, was the massive and enormous castle. It housed the royal of the royals, His Majesty King Matumu, Kibich’s Viceroy and the serving King of Credonia. Judging from the looks of this giant fortress and the history behind palaces, one could only imagine the beauty within this citadel. Not to forget, the comfort, pleasures and honors involved. Indeed, this castle was as good as any other but; save for the King's son, Gatamu. He was Matumu's only progeny, hence, the Prince of the land and the King-in-wait for the throne. To him, beauty was far much beyond the walls of this fortress. Prince Gatamu saw no beauty within the palace walls. Unlike the wishes of many, his was to get out of this fort.

Back at the Malaba district, Peninah could not keep these to herself. She had to share with her parents to hear their views and get advices from them. Upon her sharing it to them, their reaction surprised Peninah beyond her wits. They reacted as those whom expected such news from her, or, as if they had a clue of what she was about to say. She could not understand why the reaction and yet, what she said was said to be taboo and most abolished. Just like anyone else, curiosity could not let her be. She had to ask a question. Standing next to her mother, she looked straight to her, “mother, if I may ask, did you not tell me that talking to and being wooed by a stranger especially, those from the City was forbidden?” Peninah began. Her mother looked back at her, “of course my daughter, that’s true.” Peninah seemed disturbed, “why is it then that, you people seemed as those expecting this? What is happening?” “My daughter, as it

Peninah prepared herself to go visit the Oracle for more insights concerning this future of hers. A moment later, Rimberia arrived at their home in search of Mr. Makubu, her father and the assistant provost of the land. Back in his mind, he knew that Peninah’s father could not agree to his daughter being wooed by a stranger from Kibich despite him being the Prince. He made sure not to mention a word to him about it. After all, he needed to keep this mine to himself. Since he knew that such was unmentionable, he was sure-fire that Peninah could not have mentioned a word about it to her parents. With all things that way and in his favor, he was surely ready to play the broker. He needed Gatamu’s money and more respect as the viceroy and senior of the community. About amending the laws of the land, he knew that people could not stop him. If they did, he could threaten to stop the Gatamu water project as they referred to it. For this reason, he was sure they coul

In Warume, Gatamu was on his toes. He prayed day and night for things to fall together as soon as possible. Not only did he have the trouble of confining these dreams and his intense feelings for Peninah to himself but also, to mask them from Silviah. She hardly left his back. In fact, Silviah was more of a tick than his love. As it is hard to keep the tick off the veins, so it was to keep her from Gatamu. He tried his best to keep his feelings for the civic girl Peninah curbed but…not hard enough I guess. Some things, especially feelings, are hard to conceal from women, especially with them always around you and by your side. It was not long and Silviah noted Gatamu’s sudden lack of interest in her. She could also not keep it to herself and had to ask Gatamu a question about it. She went ahead to ask of what had gone wrong since his visit to Malaba district for the project. Gatamu tried to get himself off the hook but men… was it so tight! As much as Gatamu mentione

Peninah arrived at the oracle’s place. The oracle was expecting her visit and therefore was ready for her. As the oracle was welcoming her, she could not tame the fear she had within herself. Her life had become an unsolved mystery because of what was going on. More so, she could not help but fear the words that she was about to hear from the oracle’s mouth. The oracle however, could see this fear engraved on her face like the Ten Commandments on the stone tablets. He knew that, such news could not be easy on her, especially, the part about breaking taboo. In fact, the laws of their land and this anathema worried Peninah most. That is what had brought her to the oracle. She could understand what she had already heard from her mother about the oracle, her future, the gods and the prophecy. She also had little faith that the gods were doing their part. What she could not comprehend was how the gods would protect her from the people’s wrath after breaking the taboo. She

Peninah arrived home from visiting the oracle. Her parents were anxiously waiting for her. They were eager to hear what she had been told by the oracle. They also wanted to share to her the news about the change of the traditions. “My daughter, I see that now you have all the answers you needed. There is no fear on your face no more.” Peninah’s mother said. “Of course mother, the fear is gone, although not all of it but, I hope it shall clear as I learn to accept my lot.” Peninah replied. “What did the oracle have for you my child? What did he add to what I had told you?” Her mother asked curiously. “Well, in fact, all that you told me, he has just confirmed. He has also told me to befriend the Prince and something about Rimberia changing the laws of the land.” “Aah I see. Well then my daughter, we had the same news for you. It seems the gods are surely at work and serious about it after all.” “What same news mother?” “…The new
