Destiny's Cruel Hand
The kingdom of Kutuje celebrates the birth of a prince, but joy quickly turns to horror. At the shrine of Ogun, blind soothsayer Baba Fakunle delivers a chilling prophecy: this child will grow up to kill his father and marry his mother. Desperate to prevent this catastrophe, King Adetusa and Queen Ojuola make the heartbreaking decision to sacrifice their son. The infant's feet are bound with cowries-leaving permanent scars-and he's handed to the king's messenger Gbonka with instructions to abandon him in the evil grove. Years pass. King Adetusa dies, and neighboring Ikolu attacks vulnerable Kutuje. A stranger named Odewale appears, rallying the demoralized people to victory. Grateful citizens crown this outsider their new king. For eleven years, Odewale rules with Queen Ojuola as his wife, together raising four children in what seems a perfect royal family. But paradise cannot last. A mysterious sickness spreads through Kutuje, killing indiscriminately. No one suspects this plague is merely the beginning of a tragedy set in motion decades earlier-when a desperate couple tried to outrun fate, and a compassionate messenger couldn't bring himself to kill an innocent child.
