Where did Iyeri Ireti go? Why did Asake have to die at such a time?
Asake's death was greeted with a general sense of relief but the baale and the elders were yet to solve the mystery of Asake.
No one was sure if now that she was dead, the deaths and screams would cease. No one dared go near her hut. The events prior to her death were still veiled to every man.
Baba Lakoku went divining yet again... trying to understand the things about Asake from the Baba Lakoku in the days of her transgression. He was banned from disclosing the information till the day of her death.
Asake's scream was a divine tool she learnt from Iyeri herself... it was the audible translation of a divine chant.
Every evening, the body Osa'n had possessed would be swept in... every night for over 30 generations she escaped.
That very night. She was caught. In the body of Eniaje, Agbeke's daughter.
