‘God of Wisdom, these two people her are escaped prisoners and the king ordered us to bring them back to him. Please hand them over to us’ Ugeli pleaded.

‘Prince of Ngel Nyaki. I cannot release my visitors to you just like that. The Supreme told me to treat all of yov equally and that is what I will do’ the king said and I was a bit happy.

‘God of Wisdom, the king will repay you greatly if you give these people to us’ Aweli voiced.

‘I will test you and the mortals. I will ask a question and anyone who gets it right, his wish would be granted’ the king said and I became very scare. How would he expect me to compete with spirits. I’m human and I once heard that spirits know all things. Competing with them is like fighting a lost battle. I glanced at Lovina whose face had dropped. The prince of the forest of Wisdom entered with a bird in his hand.

‘Now the test is to tell if the bird is dead or alive’ the king said.

I looked at Ugeli and Aweli who was grinning wickedly, it was certain that they know the answer. They told me to answer first and if I get it, I would have my wish granted. I fixed my eyes on the body of the bed and saw that its legs were moving but faintly. I smiled that I had gotten the answer when Lovina whispered to my ear that the prince might squeeze life out of the bed if I say it’s alive.

‘Only the prince knows if the bird is dead or alive’ I finally spoke.

The God of Wisdom raised his crystal staff and told on of his servants to follow us to Ngel junction and show us the way. Ugeli and Aweli was surprised that a mortal could answer the question correctly. It wasn’t really me but Demiral’s necklace. We headed to Ngel junction with the servant and when we got there, he took us to a tall and fat tree which divided the road into two. He told us to look up at the branches that was on the right and the ones on the left. There were fruits on the branches on the left but the branches on the right were dry.

‘Mortals, which path would you have follow with what you are seeing?’

‘Every one wants a fruitful live and journey. I would go for the left path – the fruitful branches’ Lovina replied.

‘See..’ he pointed at a narrow path which was covered with small plants. ‘Both the left and right branches of the tree, both paths leads to death. One to destruction and the other to pain and agony but because of human eagerness to leave the forest, they don’t notice that narrow path. Safe journey, mortals’ he said and disappeared into thin air.

I took my lovely Lovina’s hand and we continued our journey to Nyaki journey through the narrow path.
