A long time ago, the people of the Kugama kingdom suffered attacks from stronger cities around them for several years, then came the advent of King Bajju the Sixth who decided to put an end to the misery of his people.
He dared to venture into the evil forest (Saro) to seek the help of the spirit wisperers also known as the Izagi and he got a solution but not without giving them something in return.
In answer to his problem, two beautiful daughters bestowed with the power of music (Etsako) were given to him.
The people of the kingdom were also given the power of music from generation to generation but they are not as powerful as the princesses. Their powers were controlled by the magical lamps of their ancestors. 
A power that no force or even the strongest of armies could stand against was given to the two princesses. At a hit of their first and tiniest musical notes, they destroy their enemies. 
One of the twin princesses was the most powerful because her musical notes were not controlled by the magical lamp (Dendi), this made her one of the Chosen (Oron) while the other was controlled by the magical lamp. Her powers were in a honeycomb-like design lamp in the middle of the sacred shrine (Tangale shrine) where their lamps were kept safe.
The lamps rarely go off but if eventually a lamp goes off, that means the owner of the lamp is gone to the world beyond, and as soon as a new life is born the lamp comes on.
When the two daughters turned into women, As per tradition, the king decided to coronate the chosen one believing that she would be able to protect their kingdom more.
But on her coronation, her father the king saw her get angry with one of the guards and she suddenly struck him dead with a musical note.
When the king confronted his daughter, she didn't seem to be regretful and so right before her, he coronated his other daughter.
Infuriated, she tried to attack her sister, the queen and in her attempt, she murdered her father who tried to protect his other daughter.
She was arrested and banished from the kingdom. As she left she vowed to come back and take what rightfully belonged to her.
Several years later, the Queen had a daughter and was happy that she had a successor, someone to leave the throne to after she was gone.
But as the princess grew up, she didn't have a voice, a magical singing voice. 
A MAGIC WITHIN was lacking in her, although she grew up faster than the other children in the kingdom and her eyes would always glow beautifully in the strange night, she was not showing any signs of the powers she was supposed to have as the firstborn.
The queen worried and did all she could in her power to bring back her daughter's voice.
Meanwhile, far far away. The banished princess was ruling her kingdom, she had her army and was swiftly taking over the strongest kingdoms there was in the world with her amazing powers.
She was still determined to come back and take what rightly belonged to her.
To find out if the new princess will have a voice, what her glowing eyes mean if the banished princess will take back what belongs to her, and if the new princess will be able to fulfill her mother's wish of becoming a successor after her departure, then please read to the very end...

A MAGIC WITHIN

"How...!" She said and couldn't complete her sentence as she suddenly gasped and started breathing heavily, she fell to the ground and blood started coming out of her mouth. 


Mother!!! Someone shouted from far away. 


It was Princess Hanra, she saw it all,  how Nenma hit her mother's energy core with a sharp strike of a very high pitch she had never heard before. 


Princess Hanra stretched her hands forward as if that would save her but her mother fell and when she saw the blood,  she had to yell. 


Mother!!! She yelled again as she ran towards her mother. 


Hanra!!! Queen Memma called her daughter in a weak tone. Her energy core has lost powers and when the last light in her Dendi dies, she will also die. 


Nenma tried to remember where she had seen this girl. 


Though the girl now looked pale and was wounded, she knew that she was the girl she struck with her musical note. The same little girl who dared to stop her. 


She took one look at her precious daughter with tears in her eyes and placed her hand with stains of blood on her daughter's face.


 Han... She whispered and then shut her eyes, her lamp also died. 


"No, no,  no, no." Princess Hanra kept saying with tears flowing from her eyes. 


Mother!!!!!!! Princess Hanra yelled and raised her head upward, her eyes glowed and she went into a trance.


Outside the gates, the Vang soldiers managed to pull down the stronghold of the Kugama soldiers after they had lost their voices. They became weak and vulnerable to their enemy.


The Vang soldiers came in and the kugama soldiers could not put up a fight so they surrendered to their enemies. 


In the trance, she thought she would meet her descendant, perhaps King Bajju but instead, she met Agu, the leader of the Izagi who is currently alive. 


"Where is this?" Princess Hanra asked herself. 


"You failed, how could you?" Agu asked with folded hands and an upset expression. 


"Who are you? And what do you mean by I have failed?" Hanra asked a bit scared. 


"I am Agu. The leader of the spirit whisperers and also the one who gave you your powers." Agu said to her.
