NARRATOR VOICE:

Just behind the great gate of learning before me, mine was the story of the greatest ship captain that never was.

A lad filled with dreams that seems far-fetched but the cradles of life always stitch him back to his rags.

What will destroy him is still not known but what he will become lies beneath the deep blue.

Now, the story begins!!!! (Bass voice)

Prelude
Gong! Gong!! Gong!!! The sound from the town crier gong woke him to the reality of life.

Zion! Zion!! Wake up you lazy cunt. Why sleep thou?

Hey Pheobe. I thought you went murdering God's creatures.

Hmm! Murdering indeed. Said Pheobe. You sleepeth like thou are dead.

Phoebe, please stop Shakespeare's diction. I can't get my head around it.

Really! I will employ Pablo in my meeting with the town chief.

Then you will have yourself to blame. Said, Zion.

Zion, I have come to invite you to the chief ceremony. He's celebrating his heroic feat that history never captured.

I gave Pheobe a cynical stare and uttered; according to Nana Ekpo, we were voyagers lost. How can voyagers be lost? They are discoverers. Shaaa, this is one of the numerous questions Nana Ekpo will one day answer.

Zion, save me these boring historic folk tales and let's go eat and drink some fresh wine.

As I walked barefoot with my childhood friend, I got lost in my thought. The figment of my imagination began to gain relevance and I stopped, gazed at the sea and saw the ship of Poseidon.

Look. That's Poseidon. She returns.

**Oooh, Poseidon.
How great and beautiful are thou.
Your strength is unmatched and your captain is fully roped.
Your dance on the sea gives nature its chinny glimpse.**

Phoebe. Can you stop all this poetic admiration for a ship.

Don't tell me you are hating on her.

Me, Zion, hate on a wooden ship and it's sailor. Never. Not me.

Ok

Good morning sir JONSYN7154. I'm so sorry for disturbing your peace on this thread of mine. Sir, I am a self-sponsoring student and I am from a background that has not even a little. Please sir, my little brother of 6 years hasn't paid his school fee of 15,600.

I am picking up jobs on upwork and I have been paying my brother's school fees but as it stands now, I couldn't meet up because my school increased our fee and the money I save couldn't make me pay for his. Please sir JONSYN7154 if you can help this stranger with any amount to pull together to make my little brother resume school this week? I had to result to this because I have no place else and I couldn't get any projects on Upwork for now. Please, sir. If it can warrant I pay back via collecting my private info and doing a video call, I am ready. I am pained to see my promising little brother at home.

I beg you with the almighty God to please help this stranger with whatever you please. I know you are not obliged to but I plead sir.
