Return To Ages
(Johnson O.J. Arumona)
The year was 1754, in the land of Dean Suradean, North-West
of Sudanese Kingdom.
Duke Claytone, an European, who settled there having
supervised the completion of the royal palace was in the
process of marrying the king? daughter; Princess Sudita. He
would automatically be crowned as a Sudanese prince. Duke
was found dead one morning-poisoned by the captain of the
host of Dean Suradean?s army, Halkalkum, who also secretly
desired the hand of the Arab princess in marriage. Some
years later, the spirit of Duke loomed through the darkness-
charged by his unfulfilled desires; it mysteriously
transformed into his physical form and he came back to
life. For decades, Duke lamented for vengeance from a
chilly dark cave, beneath Echo rock, in the heart of a
thick forest, situated at a remote village in Nigeria.
Meanwhile, four young mortal beings; Ameh, Attah, Ali and
Oche ignorantly followed a map, which was stolen from an
inveterate adventurer: Emani Obochi. They all setout to
hunt for buried treasures, beneath Echo rock. What none of
them knew was ?the spirit of Duke had initiated them to
rather hunt for him. Now the stage is set for one of the
most dreaded mysterious adventure ever to be embarked by
mankind to begin. To succeed, part of the rule was to
execute vengeance for Duke and also bury princess Sudita
inside his grave. But the only channel, through which the
four treasure hunters could achieve this, was for them to
return to the eighteenth century and visit the land of Dean
Suradean.
Return To Ages is an allegorical adventure story about,
love, hatred, vengeance and the rule of ungodly tradition
designed to wipe out a promising ancient generation; which
a living ghost and four ephemeral being are bent to abort.
