Chapter 1 - The first chapter of the novel Forbidden Land

In the Kingdom of Tanga, in the land of Peace, there lived a woman married to a merchant well-known in the Kingdom. This woman was very kind, her beauty like the beauty of the moon.

One day, the man went out and said to his wife: "I will be delayed a few days, take good care of yourself."

Hana: "Don't be late."

The man left, and after a day he grew bored and decided to return. When he returned in the dead of night, at dawn, he saw a sight that shocked him and made him stop motionless, not moving a muscle. He saw a man sleeping next to his wife. When he entered, he shouted in a loud voice. His wife and the man woke up. His wife was very frightened.

Hajjan said: "Who are you?" And he went and struck the man hard until blood flowed from his mouth and nose. The man laughed and said: "Ask your wife!" Then a strong light appeared and the man vanished as if he were dust in the air.

People gathered due to the shock of the screaming, and he dragged his wife out among the people. "Tell me, Hana, who is this man? Who could he be?"

Hana: "I don't know, I haven't seen him before. Please believe me, I don't know."

So the people gathered and told Hajjan that he must kill her, for this is the punishment of the betrayers, and he agreed. They decided to punish her with death, for the punishment of one who betrays her husband is death. They waited three days until the sentence of death upon Hana was carried out.

After three days, they brought her to the execution platform, bound and walking, and the people shouted at her: "Traitress! May you be cursed!"

As the rope was placed around her neck, an old woman screamed and said: "Will you kill a living baby?"

They said: "What are you saying? She is a grown woman!"

She said: "I don't mean Hana, but the baby in her womb." Everyone was shocked that Hana was pregnant with a baby.

And it was one of the laws of the land of Peace that no living being should be killed without fault. Therefore, the people of the city withdrew from killing Hana, until she delivered her baby.

Hana received poor treatment and hurtful words throughout her pregnancy, and she changed and suffered greatly while saying: "I am innocent."

The time of birth arrived, and Hana gave birth to a female newborn. They took the baby and did not let Hana see her, and she screamed: "Please let me see her just once! Please let me see her just once!" They did not allow her to see her baby and imprisoned her in a room. On the second day, they came to take Hana for execution, but they found that she had actually died.

The people of the village doubted that the newborn was Hajjan's daughter. Hajjan said: "She is not my daughter! She is a daughter of sin and transgression!"

Everyone born of transgression is sent to the Forbidden Land. So Hajjan took the child and walked towards the Forbidden Land.

At the wall, a door opened and he entered, appearing on the other side at the Forbidden Land, and he placed the child on the ground and left.

He follows.
