Jemima clutched her fist yes what she is saying is true the only thing she can't bear is seeing Lucian suffer no she didn't have to.. "Prophetess if you put yourself in my shoe, would you, as a mother love to see your son suffer?"
She said word for word.. "Oh even when he is disobeying the law of the land, train up a child in the way he should grow so that when he is old he will not depart from it".
"Prophetess I am doing my best, I have already tried by suddenly turning to a monitoring spirit, I now monitor my own son is that proper".
She said in bitterness and the people in council were still wondering why they were arguing outside they seemed so tense.
"My darling". she touched her shoulder.. "But can I tell you something, your best is not enough do something more than your best". Jemima removed her hand from her shoulder.. "I know why you're saying that".
"You should know".
"Because you don't have any child of your own, you weren't opportuned to be a mother bear a child of your own and watch the whole community stone him to death, yes that's the reason why".. she said
"Don't speak so ill, remember you're standing before the eyes of the gods, do you want me to tell the kingdom what is ongoing!"
She sobbed.. "What will you gain if you do that, absolutely nothing.. I'm too tired to run this race too tired".
"Don't get tired yet woman, talk to your son".
"He will never listen to me if the discussion is concerning that girl, Lucian has sold his soul, spirit and body to her, prophetess do you know how he make love to her? like the world depended on her like everything he has lived to achieve".
she explained tiredly.. "Lucian is almost done with education in the high army send him to the state, so he can live like the whites fall in love with a white woman and forget about this woman back home".
"Prophetess.. the woman back home is as beautiful as the white, you have seen Lucian his beauty is of the gods and can't be compared to the whites.. that doesn't mean anyway I would agree to your suggestion but she's, but she's she's.....
it was too tough for her to complete and the priestess smiled.. "She's pregnant?"
"How did you know that".
"Jemima I'm not mortal, Jemima remember the lady in question will go unpunished, the person who has to suffer is your son and your grandson growing in her belly so what do you have to say about this? that they should go ahead? He who have ear let him hear, the advice a mother gives to her children in the midnight is always relevant and so is because she simply don't want them to perish or go astray".
"The ways of the gods are not the ways of men, you know more than me my priestess, you have seen and heard many things I have not come accross of, you're too wise that the spirit and human chose you to lead, what then shall I do without consulting you great one, I don't know but this calamity is come upon thy land and thy people of the gods from my womb what then can I do to stop them without blood sheld, because I see my breaths ceasing without Lucian he is the eyes that I can see with".
