Over there

its alright now, I will

not let them hurt you

do you understand?

Woman hand over the child

I cannot do that

She is under my protection now

Protection?

That child is an abomination,

she bears the symbol of Uru

If we kill her now

we will save thousands of lives

now woman get out of the way

This is my territory

you are trespassing

who is that lunatic

I do not care whether

she is human or spirit

we will crush anything

that stands in the way

you dare to stand in the way of

the great warriors of Obudinike

I believe you are mentally deranged

And because of that I will forgive you

now woman get out of the way

You are trespassing

What are you waiting for, she is just

a woman, kill them kill them all

What are you waiting for, kill them all

That was not necessary

I had the situation under control.

The child is safe and that

is most important thing

can you make them forget

everything that happened today

that will not be necessary

uhn?

They are warriors

I do not understand

well, in order to retain their dignity, they

will go home and report the mission accomplished

Oh, I see

You cannot go home

what? Do you know what it is?

It is the mark of Uru

what is Uru?

She was a very very bad

sorceress who died long ago

Your people believe you are Uru

Am I Uru?

No, you are not Uru

but, how did this...

when you are old enough to understand

I will explain everything

but I want to see my mother

Do not cry

you are in good hands now

we will take you to place where

they will never bother you again

do you understand

yes

do not be afraid, we will

not let anyone hurt you

Hurry up lets get out of here

Blood spill is forbidden

in sacred mountains

but the black panthers

they kill for food it is natural

are we going to just stand here

and let them tear us apart

no we will not do that

what do we do now, they are

getting ready to attack

Run for your life

what?

Don't you think that was a little harsh

it's high time she faced real danger

you really think she can

out run the panthers

have you all gone cray

she outran the panthers

incredible

did you hear what I just said

Don't you have anything to say to me

Like apology for living me at

the mercy of the black panthers

The important thing is they

didn't have you for lunch

your speed is incredible, however

Speed alone will be insufficient when you

encounter a fast and bigger opponent

I am going to cut down that tree

I want you to catch it when it falls

hmm?

Have you lost your mind?

What happen to your legs

you don't know how to run

do you have a death wish

I don't get it

what?

What exactly do you want me to do

catch the tree or run away when it falls

catching a falling tree is the most

important part of your training

uh

But you don't have to do it if you cant

you almost got me there

I think you are getting

the wrong impression

you really have to catch a falling tree

do enjoy confusing me?

You do not have to catch a falling tree now

but you have to catch falling trees later

are you still confused?

Confused? I am terrified.

Would you mind explaining why I have to

catch falling trees heavier than elephant

what sort of ridiculous

your existence depends on it

why me

common you will get used to it

Hmm smells good

what are you cooking

Idikaiko soup with pounded yam

how long do I have to wait

I am so hungry I could eat a cow

its ready, go spread the mat

I will join you shortly

eh

Who is going to eat all that?

I thought you wanted to eat a cow

What is the problem

you once said I had no link with Uru

I don't believe it

Uru traveled to Keffe

after she was banished from her village

why was she banished

she became arrogant when she realized

her people depended on her for survival

the king of Keffe accepted her

And made her the medicine woman

three months after her acceptance,

the kingdom was destroyed by hurricane

there were no survivors

when everyone had forgotten

about the story of Uru

you were born with the same symbol

that Uru had on her forehead

I don't know who you are,

I don't know what you are

and I don't know why you where

born with the mark on your hand

all the answers to your question

lie within the ruins of Keffe

unfortunately Keffe is out of bounds and

those who went to explore never came back

so in the end, there is no solution

is that what you are trying to say

no

Azuka

we are here to here to help you

get your answers from the

lost kingdom of Keffe

The moment she steps beyond the

boundaries of the sacred mountain,

We will strike

until then keep your eyes on her

Aw

There are several rumors

about the mark of Uru

many believe it has the

power of immortality

right now everyone believes you are dead

the moment the news of

your survival spreads

the manhunt will begin

many will hunt you down

with the intent to kill you

in other to prevent whatever disaster

the symbol will bring upon them,

the rest will hunt you with the intent to capture you and

use the alleged power of the symbol for there selfish goals

do not step beyond the boundaries

of the sacred mountain

no matter what happens,

until you are strong enough

to withstand the manhunt

who are you?

I am here to take you to

the empress of the sea

tell the empress of the

sea to come and see me

you do not understand

I am here to take you to the

empress of the sea dead or alive

come and get me

I am going to say this

once, so listen carefully

I want you to reverse

what ever you did to here

if you know what is good for you

my body is laced with poison

any physical contact will lead

to slow and painful death

don't count on your tricks cold face

my feet are well protected

now, get up and fight like a man

you know what to do, so

do it if you want to live

hmm, you are the ugliest

thing I have ever seen

mind your business my friend

did I ask for your help

this is embarrassing

put me down

hold up, you are not going anywhere

you will stay here and watch that ugly

thing suffer a humiliating defeat

You know what to do if you

value that big fat ugly woman

and am sure she means a lot to you

well, what are you waiting for

her life is in your hands

you really want me to believe you are protecting

the girl out of the kindness of your heart

you cannot full me

be very careful, if I see you

here again, I will deal with you

this is it

the sacred mountains

are you ready?

This is for the headache drink it

Azuka this is Tari, We saw her

wandering aimlessly in the jungle

I think I know the rest of the story

some people were after

her, and you saved her

now she is here because

she has nowhere to go

I did not ask anybody to help me

They have jumped into the

fire without invitation

I need fresh air

I will be right back

you can come out now

you are good

no, I am not

you are doing a lousy job

en

Why are you following me

I am your body guard

I don't need a body guard

what is this

I know when am not alone.
