The Crownless Jewel

The Crownless Jewel

The Whyssman

In the ancient Yoruba city of Ile-Ife, a time of spiritual and ecological decline unfolds as sacred traditions are abandoned in favour of foreign trade and modernisation. Adegoke, the gifted but overlooked son of a minor court artisan, feels the weight of this disconnection deeplyβ€”especially as the once-vibrant Osun River sickens and the people forget their covenant with the Orisha. After a mysterious voice from the river reveals a shattered beaded crownβ€”a symbol of the sacred pact between the Oba and Oshun, goddess of riversβ€”Adegoke discovers he is the β€œunwilling heir” destined to restore balance. Guided by cryptic wisdom from the reclusive Babalawo Baba Ologun and accompanied by his sharp-witted friend Ifeoma, daughter of the royal drummer, Adegoke embarks on a quest to recover the three fragments of the crown before the next full moon. Their journey takes them through the enchanted Iron Forest, where truth must be spoken to outwit the trickster spirit Γ€jẹ́, and into the heart of political betrayal when they confront Prince Adetolaβ€”the Oba’s brotherβ€”who has hidden the final fragment within a royal scepter while promoting destructive β€œprogress” that poisons the land. Through sacrifice, sincerity, and song, Adegoke and Ifeoma summon a sacred white crocodile, fulfil Adetola’s impossible challenge, and awaken his buried conscience. In an act of communal healing, the prince joins them in reuniting the crownβ€”not through force or ritual alone, but through renewed commitment to memory, reciprocity, and reverence for the land. When Oshun herself rises from the river, she crowns not a king, but Adegokeβ€”the β€œcrownless” boy who dared to care. The restored covenant flows not from gold or power, but from daily acts of respect, storytelling, and stewardship. In the end, Adegoke becomes known as β€œthe Listener,” teaching future generations that true legacy lives not in objects, but in choices made with clean hands and open hearts.

GROWING WITHOUT HER.🌼✨

GROWING WITHOUT HER.🌼✨

MoMo.βœ¨πŸ’š

A touching story of love, loss, and healing about learning to live and grow after losing a mother too soon.

SOMETHING ABOUT LOVE

SOMETHING ABOUT LOVE

MoMo.βœ¨πŸ’š

She never planned to fall in love at least, not the way it happened. It started quietly, like a song she didn’t realize she’d been humming. He came into her life so unexpectedly, with laughter that made ordinary days feel special. They weren’t perfect far from it but somehow, it felt right. Their connection wasn’t loud,it was in the small things the long talks, the laughter, the teasing, the comfort of being understood without words.But love, as she learns, isn’t always about happy endings. Sometimes it’s about the lessons left behind. When distance, silence, and misunderstandings began to creep in, she found herself holding on to memories instead of moments. It hurt deeply, but it also made her stronger.Something About Love tells the story of a girl who gave her heart fully and learned that love isn’t measured by how long it lasts, but by how much it changes you. Through heartbreak and healing, she finds herself again softer, wiser, and still capable of love.By the end, she realizes something quietly powerful: maybe the person she was meant to love first was herself.

Escape from 'Okimmiri'.

Escape from 'Okimmiri'.

Felix King

It started as a wish, then grew to a desire, transitioned to a dream, and finally actions were taken with opportunities aligned, blooming a very-so-beauitiful future. Ikemgba, now called Joseph built silent dreams on becoming a 'white-coat man', as his friend, Maduba termed Medical practitioners. And being the first born and son, an ancestral line that told that he was one of the last descendants of Okimmiri, knew that such a dream is impossible. Also considering, they were embedded with the healing power of bending blood to their will. With his father on death's bed, the boy subconsciously wished him gone. When the old man finally took his breath, kicking the bucket, the boy took to his heels leaving on a promise of periodic letter visit from him to his siblings. A missionary scholarship program in display, he took the grand opportunity and was discipled under Rev'd Felix Eddington. But as time ticked and ocean tide rose, home called, echoing at every corner of the earth. He could escape Ezenuka Village Community, but not the blood that runs in his veins. Left no choice, he answered, fulfilling a prophecy that stood after the beginning of time. A price was to be paid, blood was to be shed, how would Ikemgba keep his dreams afloat when the gods were calling?
