Doctufos: Otem Erectus 86: 20-21Otem Erectus 81:6-9 6[b] . Now Onogu said, if you do not allow the cleansing, you shall regret when evil things shall begin to happen to your land.[/b] And you shall send for me, for you know where to find me. 7. And Onogu departed Uvo the same day. 8. Now a young Eshovonese homo went to bath in one of the rivers of Uvo three days after. And he sank and died. And the thing was a very bad news to the homos of the land, because no one had died before in any of the rivers of Uvo. 9. Now some came to the king and said, tell us, is this not a fulfillment to the saying of that stranger who came the week before? And Otori said, this is a coincidence, for we know how possible coincidences could happen Eartum 1:4 4. I have learnt much of the Knowledge of Knoliud and I know how Urim, the spirit of coincidence works. I have spent many years going through space and the end of it I couldn't find. If even space has an end, then what shall exist at its end? I tell you, if it is darkness, then it would be said that darkness is the continuity of the universe. |

bennyann:One thing that fascinates me about atheists is that they aren't gullible. They didn't congratulate Samuel Ekwueme because he is a scammer, always coming up with false testimonies. |
Bester44:Do you want to shield yourself from being harmed from physical weapons? Get a bulletproof to protect yourself from bullets, an umbrella to shield yourself from the sun and rain, a boot to protect your legs, a helmet to protect your head, braces to hold your teeth in place. You can't be more armed than these. Any other means are mere illusions. |
Bester44:You can be in charge of your faith. You can take cotrol of your soul, living independently and being in control. |
Ninety-Five 1. Now while Ituno was in the bush, he saw two little bears with round faces. And they were like babies to him. And Ituno took care of the bears and fed them. 2. Now a day came when he had gone to hunt deep into the bush that a snake with two heads came and killed his bears and ate them up. And the snake shed his skin in the place where it had eaten up the bears. 3. And Ituno returned and saw the bones of his bears. And he saw the skin which the snake had shed. And he observed it and knew that the snake had two heads. 4. And Ituno wept, saying, why did you kill my pets O you snake of two heads? You should have been born in Gara in the time of King Eneyufo so that the king would have killed you and shed your blood upon the great hill of Somore-ika. 5. I swear today that I shall seek you in any place you are and kill you. For you cannot escape it. How dare you kill my bush babies which I have as my pets? What evil have they done to deserve being killed? 6. If you are a monster, then I am a monster-killer. And I shall kill you shortly. 7. Now when Ituno went far into the forest, he saw the end of it, for it ended at the border of Ebilo. And Ituno went to Ebilo, for he was tired of the forest life after his pets had been killed. 8. And the homos of Ebilo gave him food and welcomed him well when he said that he was from Gara. For according to history, their own people were welcomed well by the Garans also when they went to Gara with Amuri to dwell. 9. Now in those days, whenever a king was dead, they would declare a period of three months for anyone who could kill a monster-snake which had continued to distub the land for six years. 10. And if anyone could kill the monster-snake before the coronation day of the heir to the throne, such homo shall be king instead of the heir. 11. Now many stories had been made around the monster-snake which had two heads; for some homos said that it was the wife of one of their kings who fled when the king treated her badly. 12. And she was very angry such that she became a demon and turned into a two-headed snake so that she would revenge the evil done to her. And so she came every time to kill the homos of the town. 13. And they also passed another story to one another, saying, the monster-snake can kill by mere staring at a hunter. And any hunter who saw its eyes would die. And any hunter who threw arrows or any sharp object at it shall be the one to feel the pain and die while the snake continues to live because it is a demon. And the snake can make itself ten times longer to catch its preys 14. But Ituno told them that all their stories were exaggerations. And some of them hated him for his sayings. And Ituno kept quiet, for he alone knew that it was an accident from the womb of the mother of the monster-snake. 15. Now when Akano, the king of Ebilo died while Ituno was in that land, they announced, saying, let all the hunters go again into the forest according to the custom of the land. And let them fetch out the monster-snake within three months before Nogudu the son Akano shall be made king. 16. Now all the hunters went into the forest named Igbodudu. And Ituno went with them for the first time. And the hunters searched everywhere for the snake. And some of them gave up only after five days. And they returned to the town.. 17. And by the twentieth day, twelve of the fifteen hunters had returned to Ebilo. And on the twentieth day, a hunter saw the two-headed snake and while he got set to throw his weapons at it, a low-flying bird flew across his eyes and its left claws entered his left eye and blinded him on that eye. 18. And when he looked at the position where the snake was before, he did not find it anymore. And he left the forest after telling his fellow hunter what had happened. And he could no more see with his left eye, being damaged by the claws of the low-flying bird. 19. And when he got to the town, he told them what he had encountered and how he had been blinded by the snake which he supposed had transformed itself to the bird to blind him. 20. And everyone in the town feared so much that they even dreamt of the snake attacking them in their sleeps. And two homos died in their sleeps the same night. And their parents said that the snake entered their dreams to kill them. 21. Now on the twenty-fourth day, Nogudu the prince held a large party to celebrate the eve of his coronation ceremony. And he killed three cows and one he-goat. And the homos of the land were in a festive mood, because they had thought that the two hunters left in the bush had been killed by the snake. Therefore they celebrated with the heir. 22. Now that same day, Odenugbe and Ituno went opposite ways. And they searched for the snake. And Odenugbe saw the snake suddenly. And his head swelled and he experienced a wave shock on his body. And he fainted on that spot. 23. And the snake came to swallow him up. And the snake began to swallow him from his legs. And Ituno arrived and saw what was happening. And he took his hunting tools and pinched the snake on the floor with it. For he struck it down through its second head. 24. And the snake vomitted Odenugbe so that it could strike Ituno with his other head. But Ituno was faster, for he hit the snake on his second head frequently with his club. And he pierced its head with his weapons. 25. And Ituno pulled the snake by its tail as he began to go towards Ebilo. And he carried Odenugbe on his shoulder, thinking that he was dead, because he did not move his body. 26. Now when Ituno reached the town in the evening, he saw how the homos of the land celebrated Nogudu the heir to the throne. And they drank palmwine. And it was already evening. And he thought that it was already the coronation ceremony, because he had lost count of the days when he was in the forest. 27. And Ituno dropped Odenugbe on the floor and said, here is the two-headed snake which you requested. And when the homos saw it, they dropped their gourds and kegs and calabashes of palmwine and feel into different directions. 28. And the party was scattered. And even Nogudu the heir fled quickly, for they thought that it was another illusion of the snake to make itself double and appear as Ituno and as a snake which it was. 29. And the palmwine poured upon Odenugbe and sipped into his eyes. And he woke up from his unconsciousness and fled aimlessly also. And Ituno alone was left with the dead snake. And no one came to that place until the morning time when they would see things clearer. 30. And when they came in the morning, they saw Ituno sleeping and snoring soundly with the two-headed snake wrapped around his body. For he was drunk with the palmwine which they had left over. 31. And they thought that the snake had killed him. So they took the horns and blew them while they stood far away. And Ituno awoke and staggered in the snake which he had wrapped upon his body. And he yawned and stretched and shook himself off his drunkenness. 32. And he placed his hands over his mouth and yellled, come close to me, you homos of Ebilo for I have killed the snake and it is no more alive. I have wrung life out of its body and it is no more alive. 33. Come and touch its heads and play with it, for it has no hurt. 34. And when Kukute and Ijala, two brave homos braced up to go towards the snake-man, Odenugbe screamed, saying, go back, for the monster is the same that has clothed herself with half snake and half the skin of Ituno. 35. Did I not feel a great shock run through my body when I went close to the snake in the forest? And it is by the power of my ancestors that I did not get killed there, because they made me disappear from the forest and brought me to the town while I was still unconscious. 36. And this monster-snake trailed me here with its supernatural powers. And my ancestors awoke me and I fled. 37. When Odenugbe had spoken with many tears on his face, Kukute and Ijala did not listen to him. But they said, it is once a man would die. And they went close to Ituno and the snake. And Ituno drew close to them also. 38. And when they met, he hugged them with the snake still around his body. And everyone was amazed when they saw that nothing bad happened. And they draw closer and bowed down their heads to Ituno, saying, we hail the king of Ebilo! 39. And Ituno was made the king of Ebilo immediately because he had killed the two-headed snake which had been demonised in the land for a decade. |
Chapter Ninety-Four 1. A homo of the land of Somore-ika named Ituno awoke suddenly from sleep and said, the king Eneyufo was foolish. And the homos of the land gathered to hear Ituno. For they thought that he had become mad. 2. And Ituno said, do not look at me as if I have become mad. For I flew out of this land and out of this time into another time. And I saw how those who had two heads live together with those who have one head peacefully. 3. How do you now judge Eneyufo as a great king when he was so full of ignorance? For the child whom he killed for having two heads and four legs were actually two children who were such together from the womb. 4. Now the elders of the land came together and said among themselves, have we not warned everyone in the town to keep the ugly story away from their children? But some of you have gone to make it known. 5. And the father of Ituno went before them and said, we have told him no story at all. And it is a mystery to us how he got to know of the story. For it was the year when the king died that he was born. 6. And no one told him anything of such. 7. And they invited Ituno to the council of the elders. And they asked him, saying, tell us how did you hear the story of Eneyufo the great king? And Ituno said, Eneyufo was a fool and an ignorant king who did not understand knowledge and he used ignorance to explain deep things. 8. He is evil and deserving of a cruel death for killing the innocent homos in his ignorance while he pretended as if he was wise. 9. Truly no one told me of the story of that wicked king, but I knew it myself when I felt my soul coming out of my body. And I floated and descended upon the hill of Somore-ika. And I saw how the king was killing a creature which has two heads and four legs. And I asked, saying, why do you kill this creature? 10. And he said to me, who are you to question me, Eneyufo the greatest king of Gara? And I said, tell me why you kill this creature. And he came towards me to take me, but I floated away. 11. And I saw myself among those who had those kinds of abnormal creatures in their place. And they said to me that it was an accident in the womb of the mother that is the cause of it and not the curse of the gods. 12. And when I awoke, I told these things to my parents. And when I asked whom Eneyufo was, they said he was the greatest king of this land. And I said, surely, he is the greatest in ignorance and foolishness. 13. Now when Ituno had ended his talk, the elders kicked against him and said, we know that you are not yourself anymore. For you are now mad. Do you need to be told how our great king Eneyufo gathered fifty witches and killed them until they had confessed their evil deeds? 14. Now Ituno, explain how our king was able to tame fifty witches without being hurt if indeed he was not powerful? 15. And Ituno said, if a mad shepherd rears fifty cattle while he thinks that he rears fifty lions, how is that a great fear? 16. And Ituno was sent away from the land when he did not listen to the elders of the land. 17. And he went to the forest which was east of the land of Gara. And he made huts in the forest where he lived as one who was mad. For his matter of thinking was different from the manner of thinking of every other homo of his time. But he was glad, saying, I know that I am born in the time of ignorance, but I shall be seen as the only normal person among them when the time of knowledge shall come. |
Bester44:It is that initiation aspect I want to hear about. However, you can come to normal if you can offload the content of your memory and start afresh like a newborn baby with no thought of the past, no preconceived belief, no worry, taking life simple, fearing nothing. However, go deep into your soul and find out your purpose on earth. Then everything will come to normal as I said earlier. Check this out from the DOCTUFOS OF TRUTH : Doctufos: Worldly Music 7:1-4 |
Bester44:Lol I was editing it, then I stopped and deleted what I wrote. I don't feel like saying anything because the story seems as if it is made up. |
Chapter Ninety-Three 1. Now in the days of Eneyufo the king of Gara who was a descendant of Atuna, a woman named Ofuje had a child which had two heads and four legs. For it was as if his heads were joined together. 2. And when they had consulted the herbalists and the priests, they said that it was the wrath of the gods. And they went to the border of Somore-ika to present sacrifices to the gods. 3. And the child which had the heads was killed and sacrificed to the gods upon the mountain of Somore-ika. And they begged their ancestors to end such kind of occurence in the land. 4. Now Eneyufo began to go before the hill of Somore-ika to pray before it. And he often told the people that he heard the voice of Ohomori speaking with him how he should direct the affairs of the land. And no one argued with him. 5. And Eneyufo was well respected when he was King. For he had no priest but himself was the priest also. And he decided on what to do after he had meditated at the hill of Somore-ika. 6. And the homos of the land began to visit the hill also. And they called it Somorika, saying, what did Omori(Ohomori) say? And they often felt that they had heard from Ohomori whenever they had gone to request things from him. 7. Now the homos of Ubini crept well into Gara and dwelt in it also. And when they heard of the history of the homo with two heads who was offered as a sacrifice to the gods upon the mountain of Somore-ika, they thought that it was called So-mori-ka, meaning, do you know how to count heads? 8. Now five years after the occurence, a chicken was born with two heads and four legs. And there was much trouble in the land. And Eneyufo the king of the land declares, saying, let all the aged women of the land be gathered. For there are witches among them. 9. For they are certainly the causes of these ugly occurences. 10. And about fifty aged women of the land were gathered. And the king said, confess now, and you shall be set free. And all the aged homos were locked up until they would confess. And when they began to be hungry, they began to confess what they did not know anything about, one after the other. 11. And whichever one had confessed, Eneyufo set her apart and killed her secretly. And he would return to say that he had delivered such from her witchcraft. 12. Now about twenty of the aged women confessed to what they did not understand when they were seriously tortured with hunger. And the rest of them who did not confess were returned to their homes safely after about a month at Somore-ika. 13. And the king said to all the homos of the land, be silent about all these things and do not include all these things in the histories which you tell your children so that they shall not be afraid to dwell in the land. 14. So they did not tell their children about the things which Eneyufo did. And it was kept secret. 15. And the occurence ceasd to take place in the land. And they said that indeed the witches causing it had been killed. 16. And Eneyufo the king of the land died at the age of one hundred and fourteen. And he was regarded as the wisest of all the king of the land, because they supposed that he spoke with the gods and with his ancestors and got solutions to the problems of the land. |
Chapter Ninety-Two 1. In the second year of Uji as king, his eldest brother Umuje returned to become king. And when he saw that his brother was already on the three, he threatened him, saying, it is not possible for you to be king while I am still alive. Therefore step down now and let me take the throne. 2. And Uji said, considering these things my brother and see if it is right or not. For you left because you could not end ure with the elders of the land. But now have you returned to take back the seat. 3. I shall neither struggle with you nor argue with you. But go now to Alabara and Omeiza the heads of our extended families and tell them these things. Then you shall know their answers. But as for me, I do not have a say in this matter because I did not put myself upon the throne. 4. Now when Umuje went to see his uncles, they rejected him, saying, if you could not bear with the elders and the people, how shall you be able to rule the land. 5. For he who does not have to learn cannot be a leaders. And he who is too hungry for a position shall not do it well. 6. Now return to your place of abode and let this land be at rest. 7. Now Umuje departure after making troubles with his uncles. 8. Now Umuje came to the land of Otori to kidnap children. And the homos of the land complained bitterly. And when the thing continued, the king sent watchmen all over the land. And they moved from one place to another at night and in the day. 9. And Umuje dressed like the watchmen themselves and came to kidnap children again. Now he was caught at the dusk of a certain day. And he was brought before the king. 10. And the king wept when he saw that it was his brother, for there was no two judgement for a kidnapper in Otori except killing. And Uji the king sought how he shall let his brother escape. 11. Now when it was the dead of the night and everyone had slept. Uji awoke and went to the prison where Umuje was kept. And he opened the prison and said, go now my brother, for if the dawn comes upon you, then shall you be killed. 12. Be quick to escape the land for the full moon is up and it is like day already. 13. And Umuje said, thank you my brother. And he held Uji his brother tight, saying, let me give you the last hug. And he took the neck of Uji and squeezed life out of him such that he died. 14. And Umuje fled the land quickly. 15. Now when it was day break, they sought for Uji in the place but could not find him. And they found his corpse before the prison which was opened. And they knew that his Brother had killed him and fled. 16. And they sent hunters who had wild dogs to search for Umuje, but they did not find him. And the land mourned Uji because he was a very good king. And they honored him by making his firstborn son the king of the land. 17. And Mesireyau the firstborn of Uji was eleven years old when he became king. And he was very wise, for he submitted to the elders of the land. And they guided him on what to do. And Mesireyau sent away the two servants who had been chosen to guard the king well. 18. And he said, if you had protected my father the king, he would not have died. 19. Now Mesireyau sent some servants to find Umuje permanently, saying, do not return to the land until you have found him. And those servants did not return. 20. And after five years, he sent other servants and told them that they should not also return without Umuje. And they did not return also, because they could not find him. 21. Now when Mesireyau had given up the hope of finding Umuje who killed his father, an old homo came dressed like a mad homo. And he was almost naked. And the hair of his head was dirty. And it was filled with sand. 22. And he danced and sang, I am Umuje the killer of Uji my brother. And when he continued to sing, the servants of the king went close and heard what he was saying. And they brought him outside the place for the king to see. 23. And when the king had come, he said, this is indeed Umuje whom we have sought for for a decide now. Take him and put him in the same prison where he fled from. For surely our ancestors have visited evil upon him and made him mad. 24. And they locked Umuje in the prison which he fled from before. And he died there after six months. And in the prison he was buried also. For Mesireyau said, he must remain imprisoned forever. |
jerrythafinisher:Don't worry my son. You will not go to hell. The Light of God ALMIGHTY has quenched any illusion of hell long ago and yahweh who imagined hell with his head is now cast into his spiritual prison. And by year 3000, some people will sing a song of victory. Fear nothing my son. You are a god yourself. |
Esdb3:I am not an atheist guy. However, magic and spirituality are not the same. Magic is psychological and can be explained physically. Can you give me some magic you have watched physically and I'll explain the principle behind them for you? As I said before, magic isn't spirituality. I practise spirituality but not magic. They are two separate things. I am not an atheist. I am a god, a part of God. I am Otem. |
Chapter Seven A song of Otem: Look At The Sky 1. When you're looking down always, feeling discouraged, nature Is calling you to look on her. Forget your sorrow, face your tomorrow. And your tomorrow shall be bright. 2. Look at the sky, count the stars. Are you able to count them all? Reach to the top. Get to the sun. Then you're able to mount on sorrow. Stay over there, never come down. So shall you float over all your fear gravity. 3. When you're looking at your life, and it seems so wretched, your soul is calling you to check on him. Meditate right now, fly in the lucid dreams. Then all your worries shall disappear. 4. Look at yourself, thinking deep. Meditating before you sleep. Make lucid dreams. Imagine life. Then you're able to conquer the world. Seek for purpose, for your living. So shall you know you're a god in human flesh. A song of Desoji : I need To Know 5. I need to know why things are not working for me. I need to know why I belong to this family. I need to know when my sorrows will come to an end. I need to know, oh, oh, oh. I need to know. 6. I need to know oh, why I'm born to this kind of country. I need to know oh, why the rich are not helping we the poor. I need to know oh, when Afer will become a better place. I need to know, oh, oh, oh, I need to know. 7. I'm knowing now and things are now working for me. I'm knowing now, I'm born to end poverty in this family. I'm knowing now and sorrows have vanished away. I'm knowing now and I'm glad I'm knowing now. 8. I'm knowing now, I'm in this country to make it good. I'm knowing now, I'm bridging the social gap between rich and poor. I'm knowing now, Afer is getting better day by by day. I'm knowing now, and I'm glad I'm knowing now. A song of Otem, to those who died in the Alagbado Oke-odo house collapse: Swim In The Ocean Of Love 9. It's a tragedy to us on earth when you die suddenly. But to you it is nothing but a staged comedy. Death is a strategy of the great consciousness. A strategy to balance the population of the world 10. Every earthquake, every collapse, every death while sleeping deep. Every falling from a great height, they are all strategies. For humans to come home to swim in the ocean of love 11. Say me greetings to the gods who are all over there. Tell them Otem is saying hi, he says he's missing home. Living on earth is death to those who live on the other sides. And dying on earth is vice versa to those on the other sides 12. Every earthquake, every collapse, every death while sleeping deep. Every falling from a great height, they are all strategies. For humans to come home to swim in the ocean of love |

Chapter Ninety-One 1. Uji was the fourth son of Ozukoro. And he was made king by the homos of the land, because he alone did not kick against the five-year post-humous rule of Ozukoro his father. 2. For Umuje the first born and Uruku the second born had left the land in anger when the homos of the land insisted that the king must be honored so. And Apete the third son went and took the throne by force in the third year. But the brothers of Ozukoro who were well respected elders of the land fought against him and took him. And they sent him on exile. 3. And on the fifth year of the rememberance of Ozukoro, they ordained Uji his son as the king of the land. And Uji worked hard as his father. And in his days, many wells were dug, for he said, let the rivers serve as irrigators to the farms. 4. And with bamboo trees inserted into each other did they obtain water from the rivers to supply the farms. And only one river was made accessible to the homos of Otori. 5. Now in the days of Uji, the homos at the border of Ozeshovo and Otori land said that they belonged to Otori. And the king of Ozeshovo said, you belong to us and not to them. But the homos insisted that they were homos of Otori because of the benefited which they derived. 6. And Omede the king of Ozeshovo sent his servants, saying, go and fetch all those who live in the border between our land and Otori land. And they fetched about five hundred of them. 7. But the rest of them fled and entered the land of Otori to meet Uji. And Uji gave them lands in Otori and there they had farmlands and reared animals. 8. Now a day came when Omede said, if we do not take the whole land as our own, someday the offsprings of Uji shall take over everything. For I have a dream in this manner. 9. Now Omede gathered some homos of his land, saying, let us head to Otori and conquer it. Let us go at night. 10. Now some of the homos he gathered did not like the thing which the king had planned to do, so they went ahead and told Uji the plan of the king of Ozeshovo. And the king was worried. 11. And he set all the warriors of the land at the borders. And they were at alert that night when the homos of Ozeshovo came to the borders. And they easily captured the Ozeshovonese because they were fully prepared. 12. And Uji said, if you let a mosquito live out of pity, it shall come against you and kill you without pity. Therefore let us go against them this same night. And before dawn we should have taken the whole land. 13. So did Uji and his homos go and capture all the strong places of Ozeshovo land. And they sent Omede and all his strong homos on exile at dawn. And Uji got back all the lands. 14. And the land of Otori was made larger than even the land of ancient Uvo. For both Ozeshovo and Vareshe had individually expanded before. 15. And Uji went and fetched the remains of Otori his ancestor which was deposited among the rocks in the land of many rocks. And he found all the bones grounded by the rocks. For some of the rocks had broken and fallen upon the bones. 16. And Uji put the bones in some baskets which they made with grasses. And he brought the bones to the land of Otori. 17. For Uji dug deep into the grave of Ireshe and fetched out his bones and his skulls. And he gave the bones and skull to two servants saying, go and find the land of many skulls where the apes live. There shall you cast the bones and skulls of this wicked king Ireshe. 18. And his skull shall be among the skulls which the monkeys throw around. And he shall not rest in gladness wherever his soul is at the moment. 19. And Uji buried the bones and skull of his ancestor Otori in the grave where Ireshe occurred before, saying, Otori has taken over now. For the land of Vareshe is now named after Otori. 20. And the grave of Vareshe is now the grave of Otori as it should be. 21. And when Uji slept that night with a high spirit, he heard voices of sweet music all through the night. But he did not see anyone who sang. And when he alone, he said, surely my ancestors are pleasd with me. 22. And the songs which he heard were performed by the homos of the land. And a feast was held in memories of all his ancestors. For when Otori died, there was no burial ceremony held by his children. But Uji invited kings from different lands to the ceremony. 23. And the Ata of Ida whose name was Enejo came to the ceremony. And the king of Gara came also. And some Ajaokatans came too, for they loved Otori when he was the king of Uvo. |
Chapter Ninety 1. In the days of Ozukoro as the king of Otori, he rebuilt the broken relationship of the land of ancient Uvo with the lands where trading was well done. 2. For Ireshe had cut away from many of those lands in his days. And the surrounding lands hated the homos of ancient Uvo. 3. Now Ozukoro went to all the lands who were allies of Uvo before Ireshe became their enemies. And he reached to Gara and to Okeoja, even to Irezote. And he went also to Anpa and to Ida to build a good relationship with them. 4. And they showed to him the community of the extended family of Adaji who was also called Adajinege. And Ozukoro wondered when he saw the mixture of Ebirs and Igalites in that community. 5. For they had married each other. And they had children of Igala-Ebir origins. And they spoke the two languages with different intonations which could be distinguished from the one spoken in the other parts of Ida. 6. And the community expanded, for they accomodated anyone or those whom their parents had refused their marriages because of the inter-tribal factors. 7. And the name of the community was Otinuku, which was the words for friendship in the two languages combined together. 8. Now Ozukoro sang a song in Otinuku. And he told the homos to sing the songs and pass it down to their children and their seems continually.For it was a song in praise of Adajinege their founding father. 9. Ozukoro also made sure that sugarcanes were planted in abundance in the land of Otori. And the backs which they peeled off from the sugarcanes were used for basket-weaving and hat-making. And Ozukoro worked hard to see that the land of Otori became popular and great as it was in the days of Ajuze till the days of Otori before its name was changed to Vareshe. 10. And it was hard to find Ozukoro in his palace, for he was always going from one land to another to bring wisdom back. 11. And the homos of Otori made many weird inventions. For they made garments from clay. And the guards of the king were such have garmens under their clothes. And they looked like gods in those garments. 12. And wooden instrumens could not penetrate them in battles. And enemy lands said that they had skins which were tougher than the rocks. And they said that they were making use of charms and other fetish things to do those things. 13. They also made beads from clay and traps from the saps of trees. 14. And Ozukoro became ill at the age of fifty-eight, for he had stroke. And it became a proverb in the land those days, saying, the body of a homo is deserving of rest. For if illness does not respect a hardworking king, who else shall it respect? 15. However, Ozukoro did not die until the age of eighty. For in his condition, he still made new ideas known to the homos of the land. And they respected all his ideas. And he did not cease to be king until his death. 16. And after his death, the throne was left vacant for five years to honour him. And after five years, his son Uji became king. |
17. And Adarehi commanded that all the closed earthenwares should be opened. And they blew the spicy substances all over, but they themselves put on make and transparent face coves. 18. And the servants of the king became weak. And none of them could escape the court of the king. For the homos of Itaku land went after them and killed them. And they captured the rest of them. 19. Now outside the court of the king, the homos of Vareshe were captured by the Ozeshovonese. And they took all the children and grandchildren of Ireshe who were both inside and outside the palace of the king. 20. And they were fifty seven also ether. 21. And the relatives of Ozezami whom the king killed were brought forward, saying, here are the relatives of the wicked king who killed your father. Now do to them whatever you wish. 22. And the Ozezamites said, let them be exiled. And the descendants of Otori said, that is your own judgement, but our own shall be hotter. Now all the children of Ireshe shall not be spared. 23. And they took four children of Ireshe and burnt them alive. And the remnants of the family of Ireshe did they allow to leave the land without taking anything out of the land. 24. And Adarehi took over Vareshe which was a part of the land of ancient Uvo. And he named the land Otori after the name of his grandfather Otori who was overpowered by Ireshe. |
