Chris' Royal Ancestry
Christopher "Chris" Blanks is an American-born citizen whose biological parents are Mr. and Mrs. Blanks. His dad, Mr. Mawulie Blanks is originally from one of the most ancient kingdoms in Africa and which is precisely in Ghana. Again precisely, Mr. Mawulie Blanks hails from Atsiavi, which is one of the olden-day towns of the Anlo-land located in the Volta Region of the then Gold Coast now Ghana.
Mawulie Blanks is a prince who belongs to the royal family of the Bla-Nku Dynasty of the Anlo-land. Chris' father is supposed to be the heir apparent and successor to the throne of the Bla-Nku Kingdom. Chris' grandfather has been the Great Fianu-Gli Bla-Nku I of the Bla-Nku Kingdom of the Anlo-land.
While Chris' grandfather was the King of his endemic people the Anlos, Mawulie Blanks, Chris' own father travels to the United States of America to further his education at Harvard University where he studies English Language, Psychology and Philosophy for the Bachelor's Degree and later undergoes both his Master's and PhD in English Literature, Psychology and Philosophy. He completes with First Class Honours in all three degrees respectively.
While in Harvard University, Chris' father meets Miss Abigail Thompson who is also in Harvard for similar further studies as Mawulie Blanks. Chris' father's first and last names become quite difficult names for all the American and foreign lecturers and professors to mention hence, overtime they with his consent somehow alter both his first and last names Mawuli Bla-Nku as Mawulie Blanks leading Chris' dad to be finally called Mr. Mawulie Blanks instead of Mawuli Bla-Nku. Mawulie Blanks realizes that upon his return to his homeland, the Gold Coast now Ghana, his changed names will be observed by his father the great King Fianu-Gli Bla-Nku I.
Chris' grandfather keeps expecting the return of his only son to return for tutelage on how to ascend to the throne of his grandfather the great King since it's a dynasty. Mawulie Blanks keeps a procrastination of his return owing to his refusal of ascending to the throne of which he's the heir apparent and successor of the Bla-Nku Kingdom. The great Anlo King awaits the return of his only son in vain and so until he gives up the ghost after a couple of decades and so the king's brother who's Mawulie Blanks' uncle is being chosen to succeed his late brother the great King Fianu-Gli Bla-Nku I of the Bla-Nku Kingdom of the Anlo-land.
Frankly, Mawulie Blanks refuses to return for ascension to the throne owing to a couple of personal reasons which will not be acceptable to his late father the King. The first reason is the fact that his father will have realized that his original names have been altered which is a traditionally and customarily prohibited by the Anlos. The next reason is because he has been head over heels with Miss Abigail Thompson the woman of his life who later becomes his lovely sweetheart and bride afterwards. They are joined together as husband and wife at the Lakewood Community Church in California.
Chris Blanks' parents have been professors of English Language and Psychology in various American universities before and after Chris has been born by them. Chris has been told by his father about his royal ancestry and he's promised his parents of returning to Africa someday owing to his hopes and dreams of being a great King like his grandfather the great King Fianu-Gli Bla-Nku I of the Bla-Nku Kingdom and Dynasty. Chris have been having countless dreams of being chosen and enstooled as a great King in Africa long before his father Mawulie Blanks tells him about their royal ancestry. It's because of Chris' incessant dreams of being chosen as first a prince and afterwards enstooled as the King which propels and urges him on to ask his father some significant questions.
It's here that Mawulie Blanks reveals to Chris about their royal ancestry and Chris is impassioned nevertheless, forgives his father and keeps his hopes alive of being a king someday in Africa. After all, he's been told about his royal ancestry and so he's realized that all of his dreams of being a prince and enstooled as a great African King aren't just a fantasy neither are his dreams mere fairytales. Now Chris realizes and fathoms that not all dreams are fantasies and fairytales like many have said by what he's heard from numerous American folks so far.
On several occasions Chris tells a handful of his friends about all of his dreams and they deride him and tease him for hours on end however, he's not hindered by their perceptions and opinions. Chris often quotes the words of the 38th governor of California, Mr. Arnold Alois Schwarzenegger to them: "I was poor because I didn't have money in the pocket, cars and houses but I became rich because I had a dream" and interestingly, Chris projects his words like this to all of his good friends: "I'm not a royal now as you might see me nonetheless, am both a royal and will be a great African King someday because of my many dreams" On one fateful morning when the Sun rises Chris meets a strange individual who's a white lady and she stops him while he's on his way to meet his girlfriend Niella.
The strange, old lady calls him: "Young man, please come nigh for I have a good news for all your dreams" Chris startles at the words of this old lady and even gets more interested in the strange woman's subsequent words of hope. This old lady whom Chris knows from nowhere calls him by his royal titled names. The strange, old lady says: "Your Royal Highness Great King Fianu-Gli Bla-Nku III of the Bla-Nku Dynasty and Kingdom which dwells in a far distant land of the Anlos"
Chris does not take the stranger's words lightly and asks her to call him by his real name instead so he can believe her further. Then before he ends his statements the old lady says, "Chris Blanks, my wonderful and hopeful son, please don't you recognize me anymore?' 'I am the young woman whom you often see in your dreams and who brings you to be chosen by the Gods of your ancestors for in your dreams, I'm an African sorcerer and your messenger and now I declare you King of your own people"
Suddenly, the strange white lady vanishes into thin air after declaring the somewhat good news to Chris Blanks. Meanwhile, when Chris arrives at Niella's residence he gets extremely excited yet doesn't narrate anything at all to his beautiful girlfriend. Chris loves Niella dearly yet, he's not in the attitude of narrating anything further from simply telling Niella that someday he's gonna become a great African King. Niella gives him hope upon hopes and encourages him travel to Africa someday.
Niella already knows about Chris' parents because his parents have once taught in her university a few years back before she's being enrolled at their university. Niella knows that Chris' parents have been highly educated before they will bite the dust several years later. Chris' parents lose all their properties and monies to some natural phenomena and for the purposes of philanthropy leaving no dime and penny for Chris to inherit hence why he's a poor guy financially nonetheless, he's rich owing to what's imbedded and inherent in him. It saddens Chris and Niella that their parents and families will not live to see how Chris becomes or is enstooled as King Fianu-Gli Bla-Nku III of the Bla-Nku Kingdom and Dynasty of the Anlo-land in Africa.
