The lumberjack went with his henchman Baba to the animal market in eastern Okunde, for he needed the biggest and the finest sheep ever.
The woodsman had a pending promise to the ancestors that he wanted to fulfill.
During his time in prison in the underground of the administrative headquarters, when he and his companions, the late uncle Bibi and the young maiden Suzie, as well as a squad of imperial sentinels, were attacked by a pack of five bats, he had invoked the ancestors for help.
Weah, the god of fire, gave the woodsman his most ardent flames that the latter used to burn seriously the flying mammals which consequently died.
However, the logger had given his word to the divinity. During his mediation, he silently promised the god of fire that he would offer him the biggest and the finest sheep ever bred in the empire should the divinity save his life and that of his companions.
Guided by Weah, the lumberjack was ultimately victorious.
