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

"Thank you, grandfather, thank you Agu," Hanra whispered and returned to the palace with a smile. 


Suddenly the Kugama people who were being tied up as hostages felt the urge to sing. When they started singing, they realized that their powers were back. 


They sang and made the Vang soldier's swords and weapons turn against them. Their swords started chasing them and chased them outside the kingdom, the kugama people watched them and laughed at them. 


Princess Hanra broke the news of the Queen's death to them and how she died. She also showed them Princess Nenma's corpse, the kingdom was in sadness as they mourned their Queen. 


After giving Queen Memma a befitting burial, they refused to bury Nenma but due to Hanra's order (she has now become the king of kugama) they agreed to but her even though it was nothing grand, they buried her like a commoner and they did, they cursed her instead of praying for her soul to rest. 


"She shouldn't have died. They will all pay for this, I will be back." Said a male voice in a hoodie as he watched from afar.


THE STORY IS YET TO END,  WATCH OUT FOR A NEW PART.
