The Creation
The year was nearly 1500, and the place was Africa. An intense war between two tribes was going on, the northern one trying to take the Pocotau's land. The leaders of the Pocotau was Takiri, and he had been struggling lately in his preparations for the upcoming battles. He had too many problems in his head, the safety of his family mainly, especially his beloved daughter Pocojan. The Northern tribe was coming fast and so Takiri prepared for what he well knew might be his last battle, he was old and weak. Yet, he knew he had to lead his people fiercely into battle and with a strong conviction in his heart. Before the battle, he went up and approached his only child, Takiri. He told her how much he loved her, and what she meant to him. He gave her a little rectangle made of different strings, and asked her to take this as a sign of his parental love. Then, he lead his troops into battle. He ended up winning the battle, and the war. Alas, he died at the very battle he gave the bracelet to his daughter. Now, it sits on a bureau, five hundred years in the present and long forgotten. Yet, its amazing history shall one day soon be revealed.
