#1 CHAPTER 1 (the Hierachy)

Just before the princes set out on their quest, they made one last request of their father, the king and mapped out the Kingdom’s layout until they return. Igodomigodo wasn’t any small kingdom as it was called by the god myths. It was vast and tearing out in population. Control and order had to be restored since the people had already turned against the king, blaming him for the predicament that had befell Igodomigodo. Chaos was even more of the latest issue on ground and the king’s Ogwahwan (stone soldiers) were loosing their cool and reacting back. If this continued, the kingdom would be in a state of crisis without a remedy. The first Prince, Oke, Arhan’s elder brother, mapped out the following strategy and presented his ideas in a summit that was immediately summoned by the King. First on the strategy plan was implementing a newer state plan and order of respect and decency, an Order known as the Hierachy. From the highest to the least, the following where to take full administration of the kingdom to ensure peace, stability of power and most importantly the protection of the kingdom. * the Crown (which represented the king) * the white robes (which symbolizes the white chiefs) * the red robes (which signified the governors) * the royal guards * the warrior’s guild * the white dye (which symbolizes the ministers) * the generalissmos * the body guards * the palace guards and police (mhuetin) team. It was referred to as the nine line hierachy of the Oghírè, the hierachy meant to superceed all. The chiefs argued about this new regiment but the king had to grant his eldest son’s wish and made it so. Men were chosen from the people based on skills, intellect, amongst other features that best suited these positions. The highest rank the commoner got was in the soldier’s guild. The Royals were given other upper ranks as they were the only legitimate holders of such positions. In a way, these ranks quickly united the royals with the commoners. Some of the council men and chiefs felt bad and secretely swore that the king would definitely regret his choices. The hierachy was set and the soldiers disbanded to camp while the Palace guards and police quickly handled the rioting situations since they were mainly commoners in the Police team. The king later called the eldest Prince, Oke and inquired his new tactical plans and how he got them. Prince Oke was reluctant, but the king was persistent and he told him. “i drew this tactical hierachy from the death songs of the ancestors who wail at Igodomigodo’s destruction. “The end is near, and here is there, all from one and one from all”, Their songs still freshens my ears and my mind explodes at the echoing sounds.” The king was indeed amazed for the first time in a long time and blessed his son’s gifts. On the other hand, Prince Arhan suddenly woke up from a bad encounter and pants as hard as hard could get. What did he dream of? Only a flash comes to mind, ‘the drowning staffed man in a fair regalia’. What did this mean? CHAPTER 2- The Quest to the Forest Doom.
