The afternoon came with a soft breeze and a mild sun, giving way for the hunting season.
The warriors and hunters of the Ebonyi tribe assembled before Miriam because she had a grand speech to give them.
“Today we shall have our hunting festival to celebrate the joining of our young warriors and how they would show us their skills in hunting.
I won’t be participating today because I have given my place to my son Mbaru to show his leadership skills, I hope you all will respect him and obey his commands as you have always done mine”
Her speech was formal and lively not giving away its touch of power.
The warriors picked up their spear and arrows and ran into the forest following Mbaru.
Blue climbed up to meet Miriam, she had just seen the Hunters leave and wondered what was going on.
