After seeing what had occurred, fear filled the hearts of the enemy, looking around them.
The land was strewn with dead bodies, bodies of the defended warriors of Getom. Few survive the slash of the knights.
The swords, arrow heads all defeated and laid on the ground, it was all silent.
The great blue expanse was marred out but by one single black scare. rising from the great wreckage of the enemy by the knights.
Besides the rising clouds, open sky met the scorched earth in all directions as the stark landscape hides the twisting wreaks buried beneath, which only the surface in the epicenter of the great waste.
Seeing this Ocen retreated with the few survivors but it was a shame for him. It's been four great wars without him winning rather Lossing to the underestimated women.
After witnessing the occurrence, the people of Ngora all knelt down in respect to Marie whom they recognized as the reincarnation of their war goddess.
Standing amidst the crowd,she was confused and said. " Am from Morungatuny and not Ngora so l can't be your goddess, l only come here to fight my enemy. She and the knights treked back since the attackers had already retreated.
Before she could leave the villagers stoped her and told her to follow them into the temple of the goddess of wars millinium years ago.
With curiousness to see the claimed temple standing so strong for millinium years which is close to impossible. She went to verify it.
Slowly they reached the temple gate, the villagers could not enter in fear of history.
This is where we can stop . Only you can enter inside, there you will verify weather we're right or not.
Looking at a fountain high made of pileing one rock onto the other creating a strong impenetrable walls, she starred.
" Wow it's so amazing.....she stared at the fine walls with a gleeful smile on her face.
Slowly she opened the door of the temple and entered quietly as the rest were staring inside from the outside door.
After an hour had elapsed, maria come out quietly her skinned turned pale, quietly, she walked away leaving everone so confused and eager to unravel what happened to her when she was inside.
what happened, why are you so pale? They asked but no response. In fear of history no one dares to enter the goddess temple without her permission. She turned at them and said.
"Thanks for the sword, it was really nice using it...
Immediately she went back to her kingdom leaving the sword inside the temple, dressed on the musk's so were the knights apart from Akello. The journey that was to be accompanied with joy of victory sounded like a mourning caravan.
What happened inside the temple? Whispered the knights amidst themselves.
Soon they reached the village where everyone was a waiting to celebrate the victory of the knights. Rather the only thing in Maria's head was to know how the prince was.
"Where's Odeke! She asked with much eagerness. After she was showed, rushed inside the sleeping odeke' s hat .
Starring at him she sat down beside him. Talking to a sleeping person seemed to be talking to herself.
" Who are you? , why is your portrait at the temple!.....
The door swung open, it was Akello who entered with a frown face, what brings you here asked Maria.
You know you can always count on me, she replied.
It.....'s, it's him! , l saw his portrait at the temple and besides him was a women depicted to be the goddess with blue shiny eyes.
" I was born with bright shiny blue eyes but it turned black afterwards.
Akello become befuddled, not understanding what Maria spoke just stood with her mouth and eyes wide open.
Looking at demented Akello, she stood up and left to the river banks.
Meanwhile the queen of Abela kingdom who was expecting to receive a heart balm from the warriors who went into the jungle grew more and more worried as to why there was no response from them yet.
What happened...! She thought.
Lost in thoughts, not realizing that the king her husband had been calling her for a while.
What's wrong with you ! He yelled out loud that the queen hyped up in surprise.
"Am sorry, l was lost in thoughts that l couldn't hear you call me.
What bothers you? he said, is it about the warriors?.
The queen's couldn't help but allow tears to roll down her eyes, all she was worried about was how the prince was surviving wherever he is.
As Ocen and the few survivors had also reached the place covered with blood and wounds all over their bodies.they entered the palace where their king awaits for good tidings from them, only to turn into a chagrin.
Greetings my king, they salutes at the king whose ears a waits for a terrific news.
Arise, he said. And where the captives? Are they behind with other men?
My king.... With a shuttering voice they replied, we lost the battle to some mysterious women, the same women who attacked us at the forest and also at the prisons.
What! How dare you stand Infront of me and spite nonsense, yelled out the king angrily, his eyes turned red bloodshot. How can women defeat the Undefeated warriors like you ?
" She is possessed with Mysterious powers, with just on slash we lost a large number of warriors and the rest of us are heavily wounded.
The king didn't believe Ocen's s chitchat. And decided to hire assassins and machineries from the coast since his only means of income was stoped by these mysterious women.
Immediately Ocen was sent to meet Yusuf who was going to help them hire good and capable assassins and machineries.
He reached the coast where he was introduced to some gangs where he got what he was looking for...
With so much bitter pill for Maria and her girls Ocen come back prepared to attack....
