The Conqueror Series

THE GREAT WARRIOR 1

There was lightening and then thunder blasted the skies and the rain started pouring down heavily that night when the king, King Matan of Mozo kingdom sat on his throne and waited for the man the whole of Mozo and other neighbouring kingdoms regarded as the greatest warlord to ever grace the earth. His name was Ube and his arrival in the palace that night was witnessed by the palace Chiefs. He was considered a god by some and most people said he was a descendant of a human_god called Chito. Chito was once a god that arrived the earth through a woman that was born in Mozo kingdom centuries ago. The woman was visited by the god in form of a bird where she was fetching water and entered into her. The force with which the god entered her hurled her over and she fell into the well. Many thought she would die but she survived and when she told them of how the god appeared to her nobody believed her. Some said she was possessed by some evil spirit while others believed her because actually the god Chito appeared to many in form of a bird but what made her own story strange was the part where she said the god entered into her. The woman became pregnant without knowing a man and the baby stayed in her womb for three years. On his arrival, on that very day rain fell in the middle of dry season and the elders of the land confirmed through their spiritual leaders that a god had arrived in a human flesh and was going to give victory to the people of Mozo kingdom. That was centuries ago. The arrival of the baby after three years was a miracle and he was named after the name of the kingdom, Mozo. His name went viral to other neighbouring kingdoms when at the age of ten he led the army of Mozo to war and returned victorious.

Mozo grew into a man and refused to have anything to do with a woman. His mother was mostly worried for she had never seen her son sit or have anything to do with any woman. One night she invited him to her chamber and then to her son's greatest surprise she knelt down in front of him and begged him to get married. Mozo had laughed and had reminded her mother of who he was and that marriage or women was the least thing on his mind and he did not intend to be married in the future. His mother became even more worried and decided to pay a visit to a wizard of Mozo, man said to have died and later returned after he had been buried to say that the afterlife was boring and he needed to stay with the humans a little longer. Many believed that the wizard was no longer a human after his return from the afterlife but a ghost.
