Animwaa on hearing the cultural display from the palace ,dressed up in her blue straight puffy dress and hurriedly ran to the palace to dance .
The prince on the other hand was sipping palm wine when he noticed her dancing,he was about to compliment her stature yet recognized her as the lady he met carrying water on her head at the lake side who had quarreled with him because he asked his guards to entertain him by fighting,he smirked and ordered the guards to bring her right in front of him kneeling.
Obediently she did not hesitate to do what the prince had asked her to do.
He spat out insolent words which angered her and caused her to slap him in the face .
Everyone except the prince wasn't amazed ,he knew the girl he was dealing with was different from his people yet she was a member of the people in the village .
He ordered that she'd be given 500strokes of Cane and walk to his share of the palace every morning to wash his feet.
That evening there was a heavy rainfall,the drops of her tears were being counted by the gods ,it had rained heavily for a month and some weeks which could add up to the next
The king sort for the high priestess who insisted that the prince apologizes to Animwaa .
His ego was so hh him because he asked his guards to entertain him by fighting,he smirked and ordered the guards to bring her right in front of him kneeling.

His ego was so hardened that he walked to her and warned her to stop creating the cloud with mists.
"I'm just a girl,I have no power ..go back to the priestess and seek for a better advice ."she exclaimed the following day when he arrived as angry as a hungry bear .
Day and night it kept on raining till the prince apologized for treating her unwell.
After it had stopped raining,Animwaa's friend came to her as usual to gossip about what her father brings to her whenever he goes to the city, uninterested in her tales she asks her friend to tell her more about her self which she couldn't state any character of her .
"Are you also scared of me ?Araba are you so scared that you take no notice in my character trait?"she questioned her ,Araba was as quite as the cemetery,how was she going to tell her that she liked her because she could do anything she wanted and had the power to see as well?.
"I know much yet I talk less "Araba stated and rose up to head back home .
Animwaa walked to her hut and looked into the mirror admiring herself,she stated that if no one would she'd do it on her own .
Something seemed not right ,the mirror was glooming,it turned out to be ten times bigger the size she had entered to meet then boooom....what seemed like a white fur turned to her smiling at her with it's moon teeth showing,it purred .
"Awwn such a lovely cat"she cried and picked it up to cuddle it .
"Animwaa !"
She turned but saw no one , the voice came once more and she answered starring at the mirror.
"I'm here !"the priestess said and walked out of the mirror opening her arms to embrace her friend.
"I'm sorry I couldn't come to your aid ,I'm sure you're satisfied with the punishment I offered ?"the priestess questioned her and she nodded ."why do you keep on helping me? Am I that much important?" She questioned letting the cat down .
"I can see how much you admire the cat,it's yours "she said and smiled .
"It's mine ?"she questioned,the hight priestess nodded and vanished.
She smiled at the kitten and carried it along with her to the lake side where she saw the princess and a guard happily making love at a corner made for the old people to sit.
"Princess Owuare!"she yelled in shock and quickly the guard threw his sphere right in the direction of her face ,she ducked and what felt like a dream rose when the king was rather .....To be continued
