A ọrọ ti �gb�gbọ (Skah)

She would speak, offering him words of comfort but they did little to help him as muscles of his shoulders clenched and rolled. He didn't feel right allowing them to live here. This was their home. But Ojiṣẹ had a point, it was the goddess's land and she had put it here for any and all to live so long as they did not claim it as their own. He did not feel right with this but he would sigh and nod his agreement. He would follow his oracle's instructions... She would say that she would wait until he returned and he would nod his head. "Ti o ba ti mo ti ko pada ni meta sunsets... Ni awọn ?gba yan titun kan Olugbeja." He didn't want to say it but if he didn't give her a time frame for his return she might be without a protector for a while. He wanted to say more to Ojiṣẹ, wanted to say goodbye, maybe tell her it had been nice being her protector. Was it his place?

He didn't have time to dwell on it, Shai showed up in almost no time at all and a wave of emotions he had damed up when he had been chosen as oracles protector began to crack and leak through. How long had it been since seeing his brother last? Ojiṣẹ would not leave them in silence, taking the reins and explaining their plan. Skah would look at her, watching her as he spoke before looking to Shai and swallowing the lump that was growing within his throat. Despite the turmoil raging inside him his exterior would remain calm, professional as he regarded his older brother. How long had it been? Shai had lost a lot of his spark. Was that because of him? Because Skah had stolen his dream? "Mo ti ko le ro ti ẹnikẹni Emi yoo gbẹkẹle diẹ... Jọwọ arakunrin." His voice was soft, a deep baritone that rumbled up his throat.
