"Sorrows of an Eagle"

Episode 12

They are very hungry and people like this will serve as sumptuous meals. Let's offer his head to them.

Nyamekye Adepa nodded his head in affirmation.
Offer his head to what? So they came with gods, no wonder he ordered they put up a building for it.
The kinsmen got very scared at this time and pleaded with Nyamekye that he gave their colleague few minutes to think through it, but it seemed Kwadwo Sintim had already made his mind up. He would rather die for God than live to worship a lesser gods.
Ama Takyiwaa ordered that the kinsmen behead Kwadwo Sintim before her, and the head presented to her. None of them wanted to do it but she told them, they would all have their head chopped off and offered as sacrifices if they disobeyed her.

While she gave her warning, Kwadwo Sintim prayed to God. Ama Takyiwaa encouraged him to pray because it was his last moment on earth. As soon as he finished praying, one of the kinsmen lifted a sharp cutlass and chopped off his head.
Ama Takyiwaa asked that one held the head and another fetched the blood with a calabash. She told them to present it to her while she waited patiently in the room with her husband. As for the body, they could throw it away or decide to bury it.

They carried the body to where Nana Aduhene Sekyi was sleeping. Fear gripped him when he saw that. He had never seen such before. He asked where they saw it and they told him what really happened. That was his faithful servant.
Nana Aduhene Sekyi pleaded with the kinsmen to help him get access to his son. He met Nyamekye with his wife so it was simple to know what happened.
There was no time to waste. Ama Takyiwaa answered him, "You have lived more than your age given to you. You are only wasting your son's time by living on this earth. My gods do not want people like you because you have few days to die. I would rather feed my snakes with you. You need to die for my husband to rule. You need to die for my gods to take possession of this land. The blood I offered them was rejected because of you. I see you as an abomination to the throne".
Before Nana Aduhene could say a word, Ama Takyiwaa had already brought out her cage which had snakes in it. She ordered that they bit him.

That was how Nana Aduhene met his untimely death.
Before Oheneyere got there, her husband had already given up the ghost.
She ran and slept on the corpse. She couldn't hold back her tears.
Her beloved husband was gone for good.
"Eeiiii eeiiii,afei de3, atra me. Me nsono muo, me nsono muo. Ogyefo ne hwana? Na hwana koraa na m3ka m'as3m akyere3 no? Eeeiii, ewiase afono me. Eeeeiiii, me na menieoooo", she cried and rolled on the floor.
People rushed  see what was happening. There he was, their king lying lifelessly on the floor.
Whoever saw him put his or her hand on their heads.
