Her paintings not only reflects beauty. but encourages people. But before she was allowed to shine it took a stretch, Alpha Rold, Never thought a woman could have the the strength or energy to use colors in creativity. The kingdom looked down on women and for the Luna Agnes to have Rachael as a daughter made it look like the goddess of the land was about to elevate the women from oppressions or being look down on. When Rachael started painting, the Alpha would angrily throw away all her colors and bluntly tell her women end up in the kitchen and for her to pick something as useless as painting meant she had no future purpose.
Rachael would cry her eyes out, until she slept off. Sometimes, She would run to her maternal place hoping to find solace there. Grand ma was actually a helping hand, at a point Nana, bought all painting equipment for Rachael, but she kept them secretly in her house. Princess Rachael became fund of going to Nana's place almost all the time, in all this Alpha Rold was not aware. Nana and her mom kept encouraging and supporting her, maybe the reason the goddess allowed your father had only you as a child us to change the worlds narrative about women and planting a gift of painting in you is actively for a purpose. This hide and seek games continued until some foreign investors came to the land and needed reasons to develop the kingdom of Ren. Alpha Rold had bragged with the hefty men of ren kingdom, using the battles they had won as a yard stick but a show of strength was not what the foreigners came for, they ideally searched for a unique reason to develop ren kingdom. A reason different from what the people see, the kingdom of Ren had educated people but they had looked down on the power of painting and the foreigners needed them to bring out this personality or talents themselves for easy understanding and cooperation.
This caused several meetings to hold at every nock and cranny of Ren kingdom, the alpha and his cabinet became restless, they wanted the development of their people in spite of how they belittled their women. At a point the Alpha got tired and gave up, he became reluctant about the process and simply allowed the foreigners prepare to leave, they even made food gifts like processed cassava, tubers of yam and others.The Alpha prepared his mind to say good bye to the foreign investors, But his wife and Luna Agnes urged him to allow the females and male participate in any talent of their choice, she openly stated that maybe it was time for natural talent and strength to win. At first Alpha Rold, kicked against it, he was not a man that allowed women advice him, he fought the idea for days, but on seeing how intent and the good the foreigners would do if their heart was won over he gave her advice a chance. At the announcement of the competition, many parents went home to give their children emotional support and confidence as a reward was attached to whoever did well enough to keep the foreigners and make them develop the land. The Alpha had promised that whosoever made the investors stay was going to be handsomely rewarded and if it was a male, Rachael would be given in marriage to that person. Princess Rachael raved mad over that decision, why would she be used as a bait or reward for a talent hunt just to keep their investors, she had asked her mom and Nana too. But same response came from them, what if what is been sort for is in you? Nana had asked. With this statement Rachael buckled up, she was prepared to do her best in spite of any circumstances.
The date was fixed and the foreign investors where informed of the date and invited to see for themselves if what they needed was in their home or the opportunity wasn't meant for them and would pass. The competition started At the end of the occasion the foreigners almost stood to leave when princess Rachael came in, she became to paint and design something on the wall, after about thirty minutes of intense wait, she left the audience and foreigners in awe, in front of the was a painted statue of the Alpha and the foreign investors shaking hands, she did not just draw them, she also used colors to beautify and design there outfit to an amazing glimpse.
