King : my queen, are you still crying? please stop crying, is only the gods that knows why our children are dying, he gives and he takes, so please stop crying my wife
Queen: but my husband, the dying of our children is too much, does it mean that the gods don’t want us to have any children?
king : don’t talk like that my queen, it also hurt me too but we can not question the gods of our land, just look at what is happening in our kingdom, people are dying everyday, the starvation is becoming too much, strange things are happening without we knowing the cause of it, and you think is ordinary, and is still that same thing happening in our land that is affecting us too which I strongly believe.
queen: no my king, I don’t think to that the things happening in our land have something to do with our children who have been dying, please my husband, you have to do something to our predicament Because if I deliver another baby and the baby die again, I will kill myself (she said and cried the more, while the king console her)

Some days later
.
Two maidens were going to the stream to fetch water, as they were going they were talking, not too long they got to the stream, on getting there, they went to fill their pots with water, as they bend with their pots to collect water, immediately the stream turned to blood and swallowed the two maidens, when another maiden who was coming to the stream to fetch water saw this, she screamed throwing her pot away, and she ran to the palace to tell the king what she saw.
The king was with the queen at that moment, when the maiden rushed in with tears and at the same time she was panicking.
King : young maiden, what is the problem?
maiden: (panicking) your highness, something terrible have happened again
king : something terrible? what is it, speak up
maiden: m…..my king, I was going to the stream to fetch water, right before my eyes, I saw the stream turned into blood and swallowed two of our maidens who are fetching water from the stream
Queen: oh no, not again
king : this is getting out of hand, I can’t take this anymore, enough is enough, I need to do something about this because if we continue to keep quiet, we will all perish, Oliseh! Oliseh!! (he called one of his guard)
Oliseh: yes your highness, you called me
king : yes I called you, I want you to take two more guards with you, three of you should go to my cabinets and tell them that there is a urgent meeting in the palace, that They should come right away (he ordered)
Oliseh: ok your highness I will do just as you said ( and he left with the other guards to the cabinets houses to inform them of what the king said)
king : my daughter you can go, I have heard what you said don’t worry, I and my cabinets will look into the matter (he said and the maiden left, not too long the king’s cabinets all came to the palace)
