LOVES NOT IN HER DICTIONARY

TOGUI DAGADU'S POV.

Send a child on a time bound errand meant for the matured, without a backup and the end result is disaster! I told him off the essence of time here! yet does he tarry. Hhmmmm! The sun seems to be setting at the wrong time; in the wrong place as well today. 'the old man said in a soliloquy.'

"TOGUI! the sun is still up and scotching. Definitely not setting as well as you say." came from the young lad in training for succession after the old wise one. looking up with his hands as a lee for his eyes.

"True scrutiny son! Rightfully the sun is baking hot, not in a chance close to going down. As a matter of facts not rising. I speak not in the literal young man." He responds without as much as a head turn. His posture was the same, a bowed head whiles he made his observation.

"what do you mean wise one? Are you alright Papa? You didn't even look up the skies when Making your conclusions, which was a wrong put together." the lad laid his complain with concern for the old man.

"He scoffs with response. "Note! I talk in the metaphysical évi↔️ 'son'! Not atmospheric." corrected Togui.

"Looming catastrophe then?" the apprentice exclaimed ambivalently

"Affirmative!a great one at that. The clouds looms in also from a very distinct abysmal direction, beside the swirling wind stealthily, to claim that which it is not meant to carry along." lifting his evey's up observing the skies microscopically. An act to inform the trainee he is in perfect state of mind, also aware of the point he was driving home.

"Wise one! forgive my intrude once more, but there is no sign of an in coming storm. As we correctly observed the sun is still up at it brightest. The skies are clear as a fresh spring. yet another wrong observation." the apprentice pointed out yet again

TOGUI smirked "you are correct. Some beautiful skies we have up there today. Even so, there is a storm brewing. if this storm is allowed to run it course to the later? Great upheaval would be the aftermath. One does not slip in the same spot twice. However, this seems to be the outlook for the king."

"Do you mean....? Her pauses aghast. Afraid of completing his suspicion. Because it could beckon dire punishment for him. If this piece of personal pre thought got to the ears of the in-throned custodian. Suggesting his doom was a severe abomination to utter even for the old one. Be it prompted by the gods of not. It required great wisdom, which the spen apprentice understood was above his le level. thus the apprentice feared for the worst if he concludes with Specific mentions.

"Nay! Son." Togui puts his mind at rest. However the trainee was curious because he knew of the present body sitting on the highest seat of the community and none other. Anyhow aware of the tales of the true heir. unintentionally doing old Soldier disservice.

"Who then?" he persisted

"Ka du èdzè ako na vè wo!↔️ beat not thy self over this. Comprehension comes at due timing."

"Yoo! Togui, mè sé." the lad accepts defeat disappointedly. He was really looking forward to know who his master was talking about.

" I will I look beneath the surface thoroughly again! For I am afraid this time the gods limit my knowledge. if to be for warned, is to be for armed? what is this inevitable night, I see now! which wasn't. I had worked on the tragedy revealed, that was eminent. Anyhow there is still a dark shadows cast over the damsel." concluded the old man.

"Efo from which family once more did you see an eminent dea...?" he half asked of his trainer, still allowing his nosiness take precedent after being cautioned.

Togui shush his underling up before he could complete his sentence.

"Silence child! if a hunter should reiterate all his encounters in the thick of the dense vegetation. Then he wouldn't have survived many of his ensnares to tell of any of his endeavors."

With this said , he sent the lad on his way to finish up what he was doing ahead their discussion with compliments to his improvement.

"Go attend what you were at before you heard me. I should say tho! you have grown in the understanding of our language. A tremendously feet deserving credit. Though there still is a lengthy road to overcome. I may yet depart this dimension at peace when it is due time. leave me be for now. I want privacy." The trainee left his presence in a bright mood. whereas the old wise man immersed himself in meditation on both the nearly irreversible blunder his young trainee would have committed as well as old Soldier delay.

"Over the period of these few years of training under my abled auspices. The young man was able to breakdown a great aspect of my heavy composition, but was ever a green horn to know, it was not all one handed or understood that was meant to be blurted out. Some revelations are best kept to one self until the gods make the final verdict exposed. it is believed spirits walk amidst us the living, thought evasive to pour naked eyes. Some of these are, spirit of the dead 'unappeased souls', demons, angles notably the spirit of death.

which would register a person in it records, sealing their fate! upon the sentence by the 'MOUTH'. To many ignorant souls the mouth is a mere tool of no importance. An opening to merely eat also say whatever one wills , underminding the consequences of what proceeds their gob. Dude to the lack of the full knowledge of the power of the lips.

To traditionalist, it is a sacred two edge weapon of good and evil. From the abundance of the spirit proceed the channel of the mouth blessings (life) and course(death). In order not to sign the sentence of the face he is yet to uncover; Should there be a chance to save the person. In the fore of completion of his statement, the apprentice had to be muted. If not? So long as the statement was processed out fully? There deal was done! There was no salvaging anything. Kitty wasn't as if the case was an easy nut to crack anyways, for the novice trainee to compound the weights with his words.

To all intents and purposes, I am extremely certain, I made myself clear to my other senior Son what was at stake. I made him know how dire the circumstances surrounding the reincarnation of the princess was.

Moreso I believe, I Togui Dagadu the rolling stone, de za na gbô za! Created the protective boundary around this vessel for the princess sake. Nonetheless there is an underlining shadow being mischievous. This was the main reason why he was supposed to get back to me immediately, as soon as he confirmed all I said. I need to give her the fortified protective arm bead. The symbol of authority for the Queen of the land of Srogbe Anglo ga passed down from generations to re-enforced the protection. I kept it from the wife of the man on the throne presently. One may wonder why? Well! because, he is only an acting King. Although all the necessary rites was performed as per that of an optional selection from amidst the nephews of the destined heir. Most mention worthy the bead did not show the glow of acceptance of his wife during their coronation. It normally gave out shine as a sign of the Worthy to possess it.

After the gods gave me the message about the conception? I was led to the sacred sanctum where the bead was preserved , the glow was and is still now the brightest of all I have witnessed! since it was conjured from the good will and spirits of the land.

From what I see now she needs to have that bead on her arm asp! I will do everything in my capabilities to avert disaster until I find the root to which maligning body joins forced to prevent the princess arrival and the reason why. I have knowledge of two entities previously, that of old nemesis the spirit employed to take the princess's life in the past. Her previous life in cohort with one from the other space where her spirit is awaiting return. She would have been lost for good but for the bond between father and daughter backed by the power of the mouth 'the promise' supported by the gods! 'he says with authority' paved the way for her possible come back. The promise she made to her father now serves as a stepping stone to the manifestation of the vow.

There is just as much information we are availed to as mere middle mortals for the gods and our kind. Sometimes we force their hands by an act if sacrifice in many forms such as fasting, pouting drink, offering sacrifice etc. based on the subject matter. The specifics of the penance is determined by the situation. I would have to walk the night path but I am short sighted without his feedback. May the gods help us." He ends his internal declamation.
