The loud cry of a baby was heard in the middle of the forest .The elderly woman took the baby in her arms and performed the ritual of the traditions of the tribe .The baby was a beautiful girl with curly hair ,with black complexion which defined her as a black beauty ..The baby was cleaned by the elderly lady and was prepared a milky bath both mixed with herbs and honey..According to the tribes tradition she was special , among 100 babies born in the village she was the only girl born in that season with unique green like forest eyes with a very dark skin that made the mother's child proud of herself and worthy of respect in the society ..
The elderly woman then finished giving the child a bath and took her outside still covered with the drools of honey and milk on her body while whaling and crying loudly ...The elderly lady then announced
"I introduce the saviour and the
light of our black skin lives in our
village ..AVIRA..."
Avira meant light and brightness and they had a strong belief that she is going to be a saviour of everyone in the village when the time comes ...
Many villagers endured tortures,horrible things that were being plot by the people who take them as slaves and were used and killed brutually ...
They were tired of all the tortures and wanted all to end and have a peaceful life ..the thing was that they were all non educated and didn't live like how the other normal people live .. they lived in the middle of the forest and that's all for hiding from their captures. they used animal hides and skin as source of dressing that hid their only lower part for men , and to the women they covered their breasts and their lower parts by animal dry skins and grasses .They were once a happy village but it was all ruined in only one night when they were attacked and raided by their captures...During the attacks women were raped , girls were taken for sextrafficking,maids and servants to their new homes of their Masters and all the men were taken captive for physical work carrying bricks ,farming and working on big plantations with tortures and some who were strong were made as soldiers for their targets ..
it was sad and at the same time terrible , horrible and exausting to every one in the villages so they fled from one place. to another to find peace and love ...
During their journeys they face alot of other people who were in search of home ,happiness and love because that's what they thought is all about life ...
In their journeys they were connected by many other people and led to early marriages that were made to trust each other in the familes and formed clans and to ensure security ..
They all loved and adored one another and due to that they made numerous occasions and ceremonies that made the bond of each and everyone in the clan to cooperate ..moving from one place to another faced them alot of hardships and made some of elderly people to die due to lack of foods and water and wild man eaters in the forests who attack them .
Simply they lived with fear although they never showed it and shared happiness in each and every one in their families ..
After more than twenty moons being seen by them living and hiding in forests Matilda got pregnant ...
She was the dove of the village and was married to a warrior , she carried a secret but only her parents and her only knew about it and as per as their tradition she was cursed and all of her children of the generation were going to suffer unless the saviour comes to them ....
And that was her daughter Avira .....
