Two weeks, a whole lunar cycle, had passed since the pack bond had been established with Ndeye and she, in turn, had marked Moha. However, she had still not completed her mutation and had her first transformation. She had even been ill since then. She has been in bed since then and her condition has only worsened day by day, making everyone fear the worst. Even the healers of the pack could do nothing about it. No one understood what was going on with Ndeye, but they kept hoping and praying for her because Coumba had been able to transform after ten days.
On the evening of the full moon, feeling better, she had decided to cook dinner with Moha's help when she suddenly felt dizzy and fainted while preparing the meal.
