THE AFRICAN GODDESS BEYOND THE CLIFFS
EPISODE 1: PIRO'S FATHER DIES
Everyone was flabbergasted to hear that the King's favorite Knight had passed away.Nothing did he leave for his wife and a nine year old son.After one day,the wife also passed away leaving Piro an orphan.
Piro lived from hand to mouth and neither the king nor his relatives helped him .
"God,why me?"he asked as tears cascaded down his visage but nothing could be done.
Piro's homestead was nestled between cliffs and being grounded,he could not see what always took place beyond the cliffs.Only his father could go to the palace to execute his duties as a knight and he could take donkey's years without returning.
One day as it was clocking to dawn,Piro heard an ear splitting rat-a-tat at the portal of his domicile.He pondered since he did not expect anyone.
Opening the door a jar,
"Good morning Thomas Junior?"the man asked.
"How did you know my father's name?"he asked.
The man magesticlly moved and told him to follow.Since Piro had never moved out of the cliffs,he followed.
Piro realized that there were people like him beyond the cliffs.His eyes feasted at the Palace which had trees that whispered secrets.It was really a sight to behold .
In the far east,Piro casted a glimpse at a voluptuous stunning damsel clad in a floral kimono with a scarlet handbag in her right arm.Her eyes were as bright as those of a new born fawn.
" Who's that young lady over there?"he asked.
He's curiosity made him to approach.
"Hey Miss,am Piro and you"he asked.
"Am Shammy nice to meet you,Piro"she replied.
Her voice was as mellow as liquid myrrh flowing on Mountain Lebanon and her name was the quintessential description of beauty.
Piro never knew that Shammy was the Princess of the Kingdom.Who was waiting to get married to an educated man from the neighbouring Kingdom and a son to one of the most dangerous cartels.
