Lost In The Jungle - S01 E10

Read Story: SEASON 1 EPISODE 10

Our journey out of the d@mn forest continued with the hope of getting to Nyaki river where we would be free from the pursuit of the forest men. We got to another junction which has two paths, by then, we were close to Nyaki river and it would take just two days to get there.

‘Hmmm… I think this is Ngel junction,’ Lovina whispered.

‘What about the junction?’

‘It is a dangerous place where most people who escape from the forest meet their end’

‘As in? How?’

‘Ngel junction has to paths as you can see. I was told one leads to destruction and the other leads to the city’ she explained.

‘So what are we going to do now? Your fiance and his guards are still after us’

‘He’s not my fiance, get that?’ she said angrily.

‘Hmm… That’s true, he is your husband’

‘Stop provoking me’ she hissed and turned her back at me.

‘I was joking’ I said and pulled her to myself, looking into her eyes and lips.

‘What are doing? We need to go to the forest of wisdom’ she said and pulled back

‘What is forest of wisdom again? Let’s just follow the left path and get out of here’

‘Jack, no! That’s too risky. What if we end up in the land of destruction? I still need my precious life. Let’s go to the forest of wisdom. They’ll guide us’

‘I’m getting sick of this!’

‘It’s better to be sick of it than to die of it’ she said and led the way to the forest of wisdom which took us seven hours. We got to the not-so-thick forest and saw a crystal tree. It was so shiny and had no blemish on it. The tree illuminated the forest by shining to the nooks and crannies of it, leaving a shiny feature on all trees. It was like a crystal land. Lovina looked around and knocked on the door. We were ushered in and greeted the crystal man who sat on a crystal throne – The God of Wisdom.

‘Mortals, you have escaped from Ngel Nyaki again. What can I do for you?’ God of Wisdom asked from his throne.

‘God of Wisdom, we need your help to choose which path to follow at Ngel junction. Do well to favour and guide us’ Lovina pleaded.

That moment, the man who brought us to their king came in with another people. They were Ugeli and Aweli and I became afraid, same with Lovina.
