Gwanhoya cast out of the dark forest returns back to her cave furious goes rampage inside the cave shaking everything.
“She dares humiliate me like this!” she says shouting, “I am going to burn that forest!”
“That would be unwise, demon!” a voice comes from behind her.
She stops and tilts her head to see a shadow besides her, “And who are you!?” she asks.
He walks out slowly, “The name is Mushakadzi, the demon who serves the Mighty demiurge, Mozaad!” he introduces himself.
“So, basically, you are one of the puppets of these so-called gods!” she speaks impudently.
“Watch your tongue!” Mushakadzi’s eyes turn red, infuriated by her insolence, “He is the true embodiment of Evil, pure darkness never been a human or an angel, the end of worlds!”
“If he is so high and mighty and pure evil, then what do you want from me!”
Mushakadzi spreads out his hand and projects an image of Mukura, “Her!”
She laughs, “Her? Tru
Disappearing from Garamba’s presence, Gurudza materialises in a small village where people are in awe over a recent event whereby a strange boy appeared and saved a little girl from death and returning the curse of death to her parents who intended to use her as a sacrifice and asking information about the place hard with the people focused on the events.The story tingles his ears and mind with curiosity and begins his hunt for the two. On his search he feels the presence of an ominous power concentrated on a single place and he turns to the North where is coming from.“Are you okay, little girl?” he hears a boy’s voice asking but cannot see the person speaking.The dark power he is feeling is getting stronger as he approaches the voice of the boy.“What do you want, demigod?” the boy asks but still he cannot see him, “The power emanating from you is that of a god and you are not a full god but a halfling so, tell me what do you want demigo
While Mukura heals the people at the village, a granny approached her with a cane and places her hand on her shoulder.“You seem to have come a long way and still have not reached your destination and my instincts tell me you are in need of some guidance!” she speaks to Mukura.“Thank you! But will that not be too much trouble? I can manage on my own. Thank you, again!” she replies the old lady.“After you have finished healing everyone here, come and find me. I have something to I would like to talk to you about!”“I will, granny, I promise, as soon as I am done with this, I will come and see you!” she assures her.The granny smiles, “Good!” she departs.Mukura continues healing the people of the village and as soon as everyone was cleansed, she set to find the granny and she found her in the looking at the sky near a cave.“

The darkness grows stronger and Mukura continues with the child returning back where she came.“It would be nice if I could fly or run at super speed so we can get there faster!” she says walking with the boy holding his hand, “But maybe I can try and do something simple and fast!” she looks around, “But he said I should not use that power ever!”“Who said that?” the boy asks for the first time ever since they met.She stops and holds him tightly on the shoulders, “So, all this time I have been talking and talking alone when you can actually talk?”“Ummm, you are hurting me!” he says trying to shake Mukura’s hands off his shoulders.She removes them and steps back, “Ooh I am sorry, I am just excited that you can talk, I mean it has been days yet you had not said anything!”The boy does not answer her and he takes the lead and she follows.“You seem to know where we are going!”“No, I do not, I j

A cheerful time in the dark forest because after years waiting for their revenge on the one who forced them into a life of confinement, they finally have a chance to get their revenge or is it so? The queen brings the boy, Tatenda forward so that Mukura can say goodbye to him before Garamba kills her.“Please ma’am, do not do this to my sister!” the Tatenda pleads with Garamba holding her garment.“Your sister?” she scoffs, “Little boy, this one here is old enough to be your grandma! Wait, actually old enough to be your mother!”“What the hell are you talking about, lady? I am only seventeen years old!” she interjects clarifying her age.Garamba shifts her attention to Mukura, “If what you are saying is true, then why are you wearing the same exact clothing as before and the same exact face as you had years ago!”Mukura stares straight into her eyes, “Because this outfit was given to me by the queen of the enchanted fo
As the four are about to sit Garamba summons three of her servants and orders them to keep watch over the borders and report if anything suspicious happens.Garamba sets up her sitting position, “You can start with your explanation now before mine gets a little jumpy!” she hurries Genteel into talking.Genteel clears her throat, “Okay, okay back then what happened is this that after the war of the witches. Your father stayed in the enchanted forest for a while fighting off the demons that threatened the residents of Alabaster Weald.”“So, what does that have to do with me?” Mukura asks trying to make sense of the short details offered.Gurudza holds Mukura’s mouth, “Let her finish! You are being too impatient. I am sorry, please continue.” he apologises and releases Mukura.“I knew she existed but I never thought that you had a child, Genteel!” Garamba interjects, “I found out about her existence the day I
In the Void!Mozaad sitting on his throne rises and slowly walks towards Astaroth who is bowing before him looking down.He lays his hand on his head, “The time has come for you to prove your worth to me, Astaroth!” he says in a dark and terrifying tone, “Go forth into the universe of Yahweh, the girl they call Divine and make her open the portal for me to enter! And if you fail me know this!” he grabs him by the chin and raises him from the ground, “I will erase you from existence and trust me it will not be easy but painful for you.”His eyes are in terror looking at the menacing face of Mozaad. He shakes his head in agreement annoying Mehza who throws him to the other side of the room.Mehza follows where he has thrown Astaroth, “Speak, you are not dump and deaf, demon!” he shouts infuriated by him.He slowly rises from the ground, “Yes, my lord! Your will, will be done. The girl will be found and the portal will be opened!” he bows
Opening his eyes, panting, getting up with a stiff body. Gurudza struggles, travelling around a strange place where he has never been. Getting out of the luxurious looking hut, nicely thatched. He gets into a crowd that stares at him like he is something inhuman, following him with curious eyes. Last thing he remembers is when he was fighting Gwanhoya and she …… his brain becomes blank, unable to remember what happened before he got here. He was not alone at the battle field, his face, careworn immediately, he prepares to run and a familiar voice calls to him.“Gurudza!” he hears the female voice calling him.He quickly turns, his eyes come in contacting with a smiling Mukura wearing a white gown with golden bangles and a neckless. She gets closer to him, place her right hand on his left cheek. It is finally over now. her tears flow down her cheeks. They do not say anything to each other, but just show their relief with their tearing eyes. The darkest hour they face has by passed them
Gurudza holds Mukura in his arms crying. She can see his tears, unable to utter a word to him, the strength to move a hand to wipe of the tears on his cheeks she does not have. The scream, Gwanhoya directly attacked her with has paralysed her entire body. For how long she does not know. He rubs on her head softly tears falling on her face. The Wezhira god still does not interfere but rather watches from a distance. “Just as you have forsaken my master, I will forsake you!” a dark deep hoarse voice echo everywhere.Gurudza sets her on the ground, rising infuriated, “Show yourself you coward!” he cries out searchful of her whereabouts. Strong wind blows raising dust, blinding him from seeing anything close to him in the moonlight gracing the land. Gwanhoya appears behind him. He stands firm beside Mukura making sure that Gwanhoya does not attack, not realising the ancient witch lurks behind him. Mukura’s eyes wide open seeing Gwanhoya, accelerating her breathing. Still unable to move
The moon is bright red with the sacrificial blood and Gurudza has not yet spoken a word on Mukura’s where abouts in shock because of the thought of the world ending. Mukura herself seems to have been caught in a spell that has trapped her in a dream world where everything is alright and she is receiving affection from Takada and the twins and feels welcome. Sitting on the table in the kitchen about to have breakfast with the others as a family with a merry feeling. In her head she is thinking that everything that has occurred up until now was a dream.But if it was all but a dream where is father? Is he not supposed to be here with all of us? She gets up off the table and runs to search for him in every corner of the house but cannot find him and she gives up while searching outside and stops to return back into the house disappointed that she could not find him. On her way to the kitchen, she sees his back entering the kitchen and she rushes to see what is going on and if it is him t
Slowly, blood covers the moon and Gwanhoya looks delighted by her achievement and happy. Finally, what she had failed to achieve when she was alive, she is now going to achieve it and destroy the world and from it a new one to be born.Mukura and Gurudza at this point have been awakened late but not too late thanks to the young goddess who came to Gurudza’s rescue. Will they be able to stop Gwanhoya now that she is so close to opening the door way to the demon realm? At this desperate time, Wezhira is nowhere to be found and Genteel and Garamba are exhausted because of the continuous battles.This is the beginning of the end and the salubrious environment is becoming toxic to be in and a strong loud wind blowing.Genteel shouts to Gurudza and Mukura, “You two need to leave right now!”They both rush into the portal to the other side where the cave of Gwanhoya is. Mukura looks around searching for it and to her surprise it has been restored and is standing.
Gwanhoya slowly becomes visible to them both with a malicious leer coming from her. Gwanhoya descents slowly to the ground looking at the four with a devilish look on her face. After all she is a devil but at this point has not returned to her diabolic look. Garamba looks pissed and ready to dismantle her but first it seems they have to fight their way through the zombies.Aroused by the menacing looks on their faces Gwanhoya bursts into laughter, “I hope you do not mind! I just thought maybe this reunion might be more emotional for you guys!” she places a finger on her mouth, but I guess I was wrong!”Garamba advances forward, “You will pay for this, demon!”Genteel grabs her by the arm, “Do not be irrational at this point and make irrational moves at this point. Any wrong moves we will lose.”“Alright then, what is the way forward then?”Genteel moves forward, “It is not our destiny to defeat her and as it stands, we cannot! It is their destiny so
Gwanhoya perceiving the events at a distance is amazed by the unfolding events and the struggle between the mothers and the children.“This is pretty much interesting!” she says to herself, “I wonder how everything goes! Will the mothers do what needs to be done and kill their own children?She puts on a sad face, “I hope they will not kill them because if they do, my two new toys will not have anything to play with!”Two shadows appear from behind her.“How nice of you to join me boys!” she smirks, “I hope you are both ready for the reunion!”They do not reply but just stand there beside her.At Alabaster WealdGaramba releases herself from Mukura’s grip slowly., “Well then, I will leave you and your daughter to sort the issues out once and for all now!”Jocundly she replies, “With pleasure and you do the same also!”Mukura is glued to the same place unable to make a move on because of the sudden change in her power. It no
“You are already resting, young princess?” Garamba’s voice emanates from where the explosion occurred.Enraged gates up prepared to attack, “You!”“Yes, it is me again, and I brought your mother here too!” she points behind Mukura.“What did you just do?”“Let’s see, I just saved my son from dying!”“No, you just saved the servant of the demon!” she replies preparing to attack.“Divine!” Genteel yells out her name.“Is that supposed to mean something to me?” she asks impudently turning to look at Genteel.Genteel approaches her slowly and carefully watching her, “I named you Divine when you were born!”“Look at me! Do you see anything divine about me?”“Yes, there is!” she continues to advance but wary of what she might do.“How would you know? You have never been there long enough to know anything about me and yet here you are uttering words as if you know who I am.”“I know I have not been there for you! I was forced to stay away from you. I nev
Slowly advancing deeper into the enchanted forest asking about Gwanhoya’s where abouts and killing each and everyone who refuses to tell him where the demon is, you know or do not know it makes no difference he just kills and moves on to the next.The panic in the enchanted forest continues just that the one causing it has changed. Gurudza’s presence has changed from being divine to being corrupt succumbed into the darkness after witnessing the burnt bodies of his people setting him on a vengeful path to kill Gwanhoya!The darkness inside him continues to take over him slowly losing himself to the hatred he is feeling.Gwanhoya sits at the top of a big rock retaining the normal look of Monalisa.“He really killed my precious creature that easily!” she mourns for Wrath on the rock dropping tears on it.Her precious monster was no more and she had thought they would see the new world together but he was not strong enough to fight a demigod. Ho
“Well, we have managed to plunge them into darkness and I thing this will give me the time I need to make the last preparations but first I have to notify the snake god’s people of the absence of the dark queen from the forest!” she says hovering on top of the dark forest’s barrier.Wrath growls in response to Gwanhoya. Her face does not change and remains blank. She waves her hand and the leader of the Nyami people’s hologram appears in front of him.Looking at Gwanhoya he does not waist time to ask, “What do you want demon?”“The reason why your people are dead is because the queen of the dark forest refused to give you back the object that could have saved your people and now, I come to you with a proposition!”“And what is this proposition?” he asks.“The way into the dark forest!”He seems interested and she smiles seeing this, “So, what is in it for you demon?” he asks to hear what she desires.“Not much really! Just
