1 CHAPTER 1 - The Great War

When the fresh wind blows, when the scorching sun reaches its peak, and the savory aroma of freshly cooked meat wafts through the air, you'll find Akpobor, a young boy from the native lands of Nigeria, hailing from the Urhobo kingdom and the tribe of Urhoworo.

For generations, the warriors of this tribe have proven themselves as skilled hunters, not just for sustenance, but for the thrill of the chase. Over time, they evolved, adapting to their prey, gaining speed to hunt antelopes, dexterity to hunt monkeys, and strength to hunt wild bears. This evolution propelled them to become one of the four leading tribes in Nigeria, alongside the Igbo, Yoruba, and Hausa tribes.

However, a mysterious event sparked a war among the four great tribes when the heir to the kingdom was killed. The war raged on, with tribes rising and falling, and alliances shifting. The Ijaw tribe, known for their exceptional aquatic skills, became the Urhobo's greatest ally. The Fulani, with their expertise in beast herding, joined forces with the Hausa, while the Edo, with their reputation for blood-soaked wars, allied with the Yoruba and Igbo.

Many other tribes emerged during this Great War, but the Igbo tribe ultimately fell due to the betrayals of their former allies, the Yoruba and Edo. Their people scattered, hiding and waiting for the right moment to reclaim their place.

As the war reached its peak, foreign tribes from neighboring countries began secretly migrating to Nigeria, some with peaceful intentions, others with ulterior motives. This led to a temporary ceasefire to address the foreign invasion, and the fate of the tribes hung in the balance.
