Chapter 14 - Evenings

Zodwa was wearing her facepaint the white dots around her face (Xhosa face dots). Her lip painted red only in the middle thou the rest a delicate plump all-natural.

Her headdress was pure white laced with golden jade ivory, a unique metal that is as valuable gold, tinted in a jade color and harvest from the tooth of an arboreal Tano. Mostly found in the valley of metals a specialist mining area.

In her skin was had runes that appeared and disappeared as the mana flowed through them one of them Kwanda thought looked familiar.

He told Zodwa, his mom used to have one too. She said it could be something most likely nothing as many people have similar runes. The only reason she didn't immediately dismiss the thought is because of the ring he wore she knew that it was relic of the Chestnuts. plus her new baby brother needed some connection to his family it doesn't hurt him at all.

She did warn him thou that power will be the only thing he can use to change his position in the clan, Is your power we will always help but at the end of day. If the link can be proved everyone even people in our family would move to stop you from if it could affect their position.

Make sure that others know the consequences of moving against you as a Chestnut I had to show break the a nobles leg when he approached drunk at a gala last year. He turned out to be the second Prince of Abdulastan in the southern desert. His father sent people to teach me a lesson each one of them head was sent back to his father with a warning from Mom.

Remember you also need to make friends amongst the nobles. The people who run countries didn't get there by luck, to hold power is to have power. To use it wisely to keep power is probably the hardest thing ever.

The weekend braai he attended on the first weekend, was an impromptu introduction to his new extended family. His grandfather Nolan was an amalgamation of old, strong and dazzling. On his head a giant grey afro. Liza had warned Kwanda to only trust his immediate family the old had a keen eye and could cause trouble for him.

He had previously done so with Liza. Since Wendy is the oldest she would naturally inherit the old man's place, but Wendy is her women so she had refused to follow his plan she had her ideas.

This infuriated the old man, Nolan so much he had moved to the frontline. So that when the Old man abdicated his position Wendy's younger brother would get the position without a fight.

Unfortunately, uncle, Ken was killed on a routine training exercise a few weeks after his promotion to Grand Abattoir, Wendy is still investigating.

[Authors thoughts even a child would know that there is something up with this dude death however without proof even THE AUTHOR CANT INCRIMINATE SOMEONE

(Right okay do better dude a routine training exercise come on man)].

Especially if he messed with Gabriel Chestnut. Star of Waterfall Institute in the Western district of the city. The only child of Uncle Ken and the favorite grandson of Nolan.

Her lessons were all fucking weird. He would enter and wake up in his next lesson he is yet to remember a single lesson she has imparted.

Even thou Zodwa has been telling hmm he is making great progress. No matter how many time he asks she say the same thing to him....don't worry it will come to you.

Our family in this city is under mom's leadership. She has removed ourselves from governing politics. We are still required to attend many balls and stuff. We can do whatever we want as long as it does not mess with the country. Liza's had told him they have bigger goals.
