The Kingdom of Salakabi Greatest Fear
Salakabi is a small village in the middle of the high mountains. The origin of how they existed was on story passed down from ancestors to children and the grand children. They were the only living human being that existed apart from the gods. Salakabi had no historical writing or background to confirm how they existed.

The Salakabi people were very appreciative people, they farm everyday to feed their families, and their mountains were surrounded with water so they never had problems of hydration. Their lands are fertile, whereby they plant several foods and seeds understanding passed down from their great grandfather’s.
The Salakabi had a King who is a monarch to all, and makes judgement for peace to reign and chiefs also who assist the kinds in building a suitable and comfortable community.
Little did they Know that there was more to life and the world had advanced ahead of them because they had been passed down with the understanding from their great grand parent through story’s and songs that they were the only living human beings in the world.
The Salakabi have always lived in peace and harmony from ages. Until a demon of the sea was casted away from the sea to the Land of Salakabi. The Salakabi worships the sea God and mermaids every eclipse of the sun which the mermaids always come out to celebrate with the humans of the Salakabi.
There was a demon that was casted out of the sea for causing havoc in the sea and war against the sea god. This landed in the Salakabi kingdom. This demon with rage and heartlessness preys on the people of Salakabi. The people with unity have chased this demon away several time but the demon had more strength than them and was wiser than them. The demon always comes at night when there are only few awake and everyone awake are weak and then kidnaps 2/3 people or children to its hidden place deep inside the east forest of the Salakabi to eat feed its greed. This demon comes every 3rd full moon. They did not know that the sea God was not aware of this Killings by the demon.

The king out of his smartness and understanding had built and alter of sacrifice for the demon to eat and not to terrorize the Community to tell families to sacrifice 1 members of their families each. Everyone 3rd full moon 2 death will always occur.
This demon caused serious terror to everyone heart. A mother of 9kids after loosing 8 of her kids had to go to the sea God alter and cried bitterly tearing her skin in pain and anger she shouted;
sea god am I a mother or a waste
Why have you decided to punish me with this pain and suffering
What is the Point to my life when my two sons are dead and my last is the next
Why have you forsaken us
What have we done to deserve this
Did I not sacrifice to you every eclipse
Why have you cursed our Community with pain and suffering
Why are you punishing us with this demon
My heart pain are too heavy for me to carry sea God
passerby seeing this also came along and started cry shouting sea God Help us there is no peace in our Salakabi Land again we cry Sea God help us. Oracles also chanting and shouting, sea god help us.
This Loud tears and agony touched the sea God heart and immediately there was lightening from the sky, and the cloud began to get darker and cry, and there was a huge man Coming out of the Sea Far away, when they all saw this they were all scared and everyone in the city gathered together and began to cry for help in a Loud Voice
The people of Salakabi kingdom shouted
We Cry Sea god
Help us !!!
Help us !!!
Help us !!!
This word keeps coming coming out from the People of Salakabi kingdom.
The Sea God seeing how Good this people have served him and obeyed his rules and how they have always worshiped and praise him was ready to Help them
The Sea God Shouted the Demon name
- RUFUS !!!
and it was as like the whole area was shaking. The sea god voice was too loud and strong that the everyone had to cover their ears to affect damage.
The Demon Rufus on hearing the Sea gods voice got scared and shout
Please leave me Sea god
You casted me away from the sea
Here I am around this weak Humans
I enjoy Preying on their fear
I enjoy eating their flesh
Not even their champions can challenge me
Am a god to them, they built an alter for me
After the sea god heard they built alter for him the was stoned at the people, the King then ran to a higher place and shouted
I built the alter great sea god
The demon terrorize our little children with fears
The demon gives our weak children and people bad nightmares
This was the only way I could send him away from the community
I lost 3 of my kids as a sacrifice to maintain peace for everyone
I also feel the pain as father and king
After the sea god heard this he knew that the people were weak and couldn’t do anything to chase the demon away. The Sea god the called out his general and to guards to go and seize the demon from the east mountain it was.
The demon RUFUS after laying a first attack on the general saw he was weak to the general, had to succumb there he was caged and trapped from the Land back to the sea, this time he was casted to the inner dept of the sea where he will never be seen again, and his powers and Horns were seized by the general
The Sea God then went back to his throne in the sea.
Everyone in the Salakabi both old and young men and women, and children also all started rejoicing that their lost peace of back. Although they have lost a lot and pain is still in their heart but now they know that the Kingdom of Salakabi is at peace you all started Jubilating.
The Kingdom of Salakabi started living in peace and harmony after their great fear was Gone, they hosted that day to celebrate the sea god and to bring remembrance of all their lost children.
After this day the Salakabi lived in peace and harmony until an Helicopter crash happened in west of Salakabi.
