The afternoon went on calmly and the sky began to darken, for the evening was about to take over.
The late Governor's aide-de-camp Polo hadn't taken a minute break, even to eat something.
He was so involved in the organization of the transition of power to the new Commander of the imperial forces that he couldn't spare some time for himself.
Babida and his companions, uncle Bibi and the young maiden Suzie had left him and gone back to the guest rooms, so they could get some rest and prepare for what they believed was going to be a long night.
Suddenly, the announcement horn resonated all over the administrative headquarters and Okunde's garden.
Babida, who hadn't seen the time flying by quickly, jerked from the bed and looked through the window.
The logger remarked that the night had completely fallen and a huge and full moon was enlightening the sky of Okunde.
