The Conqueror Series

Warriors 15

   Before Nabel arrived in the East with her armies Gizza was already addressing the large women of the South and East while her interpreters interpreted her words to the great number of women. Somehow she was trying to convince them that a big blunder mistake had been made upon earth. The women of the South and East could not understand why Gizza was trying to make them change their mind or regret what they had done. "Yes, I want us to regret it" Gizza had said and continued. Most of the women were becoming angry at her. Some began to shout from the great crowd,; "You started this war!" "We followed your footsteps!"

Gizza could not stop them. Most of them started screaming in anger. Some still believed that all men deserved to die. "Now that we have destroyed every single man on earth you want us to wallow in regret?" Others were heard saying.

"I don't want war. The woman leading the Western and Northern women will soon be here as you made me believe. We should welcome her and find a way to right this wrong. If not  humanity is gone. Without men who will warm our beds and make us pregnant?" Asked Gizza.

"You don't understand. All men are dead. There is no righting this wrong. But it makes us feel good doesn't it?" Asked one of the women as most responded by cheering. "Men dealt with us" the woman continued. "If we are going to be the last beings on earth; the last beings to survive on earth then so be it. We will all grow old and die; It makes us feel good that our tormentors left before us. When your impostor arrives in the East with her army we should rejoice with her"

As this continued Gizza kept quite. At the end majority believed and stood with Gizza. Yes, they believed; killing the men was a blunder. Most of the women sat on the ground, mostly those that joined in the fight because they were forced by the women leaders. Most of them cried. It was as if they regained their sanity. The women that were challenging Gizza with words could do nothing but decide to regret too. It was too late they believed. All men had died.

"All hope is not lost" said Gizza. The women paid attention. Gizza continued. "I'm able to convince you for a reason. That reason was a boy i killed in the palace of Arika. That boy was not a boy. He wasn't a being but a shadow of men; he is the Existence of Men. He has been visible all these while but I never recognised his true motive. Now I do"

There was murmuring then Gizza continued, "There is a man alive. His name is Davi. He is the most important person in the world now" the women looked at one another. Gizza continued, "he is the crown prince of Arika; Arika, the kingdom that gave birth to Mobi, my hometown in the West. I have every reason to hate men but I discovered too, though late that I have every reason to love men too. Please, I want to introduce you all to this good man. He will be our husband"

Some of the women giggled, others laughed at Gizza's joke. How could one man marry millions of women?" They asked amidst laughter. Gizza shook her head as she was forced to smile too. She was happy that things were getting normal.

There was chaos at that moment. Nabel had arrived. Her army led her through the capital gate right into the field where Gizza was with her armies. 

It took Gizza and Nabel hours to get to meet each other. There meeting was scheduled and Gizza was eager to meet with this impostor. Nabel remained camped in the capital with her armies as she was eager to meet with Gizza and confront her.

Nabel and Gizza's messengers arranged for the meeting and Nabel and Gizza met on a cliff just before the cave where Davi was hiding.

Nabel didn't seem surprised to see Gizza but Gizza was stunned. She didn't believe that Nabel was still alive and that she was the impostor leading the Western and Northern women in her name. 

There guards left them alone on the cliff to give them privacy. Gizza and Nabel stood, facing each other.

"Nabel" Gizza called her name.

"Don't ask me questions Gizza. We are from the same kingdom but right here we are both queens" said Nabel.

"You are not a Queen. You are leading these people in my name. The Northern and Western women are following you in my name. What do you think will happen when they find out that you are not the true Gizza?" Gizza asked.

"And who told you they are not aware yet? They just can't challenge my authority. You are weak Gizza. You started a war you can't finish. Now you want to preach peace. Thanks to me no living man in the West and North. Thanks to me who is going to make sure that the only surviving man in the world right now goes six fit in the ground. I will just ask you once Gizza; where is Prince Davi?"
