I quickly went into my room and called Prince and asked, "Hey friend, Prince you should have told me that she was crazy and as I went inside her room. It felt as if something strange was happening, as if I was going there to sacrifice my self. Who scares a child like this? And why were you not responding to my calls? I called you so many times?"
Prince started laughing after listening to my words and laughingly he said, "why do you think that the vice leader is given so much importance than the clan leader because the vice leader is a shaman and she can see the future, I knew that you were calling me but if I had responded to your call then perhaps that person would have realized that there are not just one but two souls in our body."
"Oh Shaman, yes it was written in the novel, but I fool forgot that. You did the right thing. Now she would not have known that there're two souls in this body. But she was saying something about the future and the past. Never mind. Let's do our work and not listen to her nonsense. We just wanted to have this clan on our side which we did so don't think too much and let's get out of here.

Inside the Vice Clan Leader's room,
The clan leader saw the Prince leaving and turned towards the shaman and asked, "what do you think?"
That woman turned to Braska and said, "Braska not all things or people are under our control. Some things are beyond our control. This man, he is a formidable opponent, one whose should have never existed, his existence brings uncertainty, one's which are difficult to comprehend, one's whose extension is still unknown. We should never have stand in his way. We shouldn't have tried to stop him and as far as I can see, you not only tried to stop him but also broke the hand of friendship he offered you and made a him accept a deal."
If it was any other person saying this Braska would have brushed aside that advice but it was thier vice leader and words like uncertainty couldn't be considered just some other random words anymore, realising the mess he had created and thinking of ways he could clean this up but not finding one he immediately asked,
"So what do you think I should do now?"
The woman called Braska to her and told him,
"If you were asking me to give you some suggestions I would simply say that you should have never even wandered around him in the first place but you have already joined hands with him to save my life, so now you have no choice but to follow him. You have to do everything he says and obey everything he says. You will have to support him completely because if you go back on your word now, it will be a disaster for all of us."
Braska nodded his head carefully but Mia who was nearby didn't understand the need to do so
"What are you saying? Do you think he will try to attack us and will succeed? Have we become so weak in your eyes that we will have to obey everything he says? Just to survive. We are people of the desert and for our Bihu tribe, freedom comes first. And if he tries to take away our freedom then our people will kill him without an ounce of hesitation."
Everyone was shocked to hear Mia's words it wasn't like she was lying but even if she was stating an undeniable fact, answering back to vice leader was like questioning her prophecy and this was something everyone felt ominous and refrained from doing it so, braska silenced her saying, "Mia shut up! Madam, please don't feel bad about her words, she is just a child, that is why maybe she could not understand what you were saying".
That woman did not misinterpret Mia's words at all and smilingly said, "Braska I think you get the point. He is very special, whether he will be made into blessing or a curse, only time can pass. The future is about to change and he will be deciding who is to be part of that new future."
They all said their farewell and left the room for shaman to rest.
