A Journey Across Time, A Battle for Freedom

What if you could go back in time?
What would you do? 
Stop the world war?
Stop slavery?

When Joseph Situma, a modern-day man, is thrust back to the year 1542, he is reborn as Khisa Lusweti, the son of a village chief in Eastern Africa. Struggling to bridge the gap between his past life and his new reality, Khisa must navigate the brutal tides of history. But as he uncovers the looming horrors of the transatlantic slave trade, he realizes that fate has given him a chance—an opportunity to change the course of history.

Armed with knowledge beyond his years and the trust of a people who see him as both a leader and a boy, Khisa must unite warriors, outthink ruthless enemies, and fight for a future that was never meant to be. But history is not so easily rewritten, and with every victory comes a greater challenge.

Will he defy destiny, or will the weight of the past crush him before he can break the chains of oppression?

A gripping tale of resilience, strategy, and the unyielding spirit of a people on the brink of war.

The Wrath of the Unchained

The Nuri and Kilwa armies faced each other across the vast battlefield, the air thick with tension. The sun beat down upon their armor, glinting off the steel as each side stood in formation. Nuri soldiers, clad in iron-plated leather, gripped their swords and spears tightly, their shields firm in their hands. Across from them, the Kilwa warriors, donned in iron armor, stood resolute, with Portuguese mercenaries among them, muskets at the ready.

King Lusweti, atop his black warhorse, stared down Malik, his expression unreadable but his presence unwavering. Malik, adorned in gold-trimmed armor, regarded him with disgust, his lip curling at the sight of the young king.

"You don't belong on this battlefield, boy," Malik sneered. "Nuri should have surrendered when they had the chance. I will make sure your kingdom burns."
