"Ajgar isn't here yet?" asked Anac the leader of the Henisi tribe. He was a man with a huge build, huger than anyone from his tribe. 

Standing seven feet tall, he was a giant in the form of a human. Not only tall but he was huge. 

He was seated on a rock. The rock was cleanly carved to look like a throne. 

The place where he was seated was a structure that was made out of wood. The Henisi tribe didn't believe in a stable house. They changed according to the climate and the era. 

Forest is their home and that is the only house they will stay loyal to. But Anac was the son of the original leader of the Henisi tribe, splitter the tribe in two. He wanted a place in the city for his people and while some people stayed with the original leader, others chose to follow him.

He patiently waited for his brother to come back home. 

"But big brother Ajgar is still out and he hasn't come back yet. what should we-----"

Anac raised his giant hand as he said "We will wait past midnight and he doesn't come back, we attack the Lenton house.  He is a strong man, even if they attack them. He can at least manage to escape, he is strong enough to do that. If it wasn't for me, he would have been the strongest in the tribe."

"But-----" said the woman. 

"let's just wait and hope that the leader of Lenton House agreed to our terms. Taking over his whole business is a lot to ask for. But we are strong and just like jungle ---- the rule of strong takes apply everywhere. 

We are strong that's why we will take over his company for him. Killing ten people was just scares him. We won't spill any more blood."

The woman who was standing beside Anac was his wife. She was the only one who supported him, she was the one that believed him first. Later more people joined them and believed that they should move ahead from the forest.

She gently held Anac's hand as she said "I don't know why, but I have this constant ancient. It is as if something is going to happen. I----"

Anac laughed as he grabbed her hand back, "Don't worry, it's because of that old woman that you are scared."

There is this woman in the henisi. She is a former witch. Today when Anac and Ajghar went to her to find their fortune. 

But it wasn't a trip as usual. The old woman's said only one thing "Why? at such a young age? they don't even have their kids. Why does it have to be so young?" 

Anac's wife tried to get more detail, but all she heard was from the old lady was "Keep these two men locked up in the house. You can't run away from it, but you can at least prevent it. Don't go anywhere today and let today's day pass." 

Anac proceeded to ask "Prevent what?"

the old woman looked at him as she said "Death. Death is what I am talking about."

But on the contrary to the old woman's warning. Both Anac, Ajgar ignored her warning and continued to the day as planned. 

Ajgar went to Grey's office to make deal with him about the protection and Anac is waiting for him in the forest.

Looking at the worried face of her wife, Anac asked "Are you worried about today?"

"As she told, we should ----- we should have just let today pass. I don't know but------ I am scared Anac."

Anac looked at his wife as he said "When I left the tribe, everyone was against me. But you stood beside me all this time because you believed in me and that meant a lot to me. Because you believed in me, I also started to believe in my dream of settling in the city. You stood beside me when no one was there.

So believe in me one more time my wife, because when we will take over on Lenton House, we will be powerful. No one will be able to stop us and the Hensisi tribe will also rule over the city. Even if the Lenton House does not agree, they are not strong enough to defend themselves from us. So don't think much about it since we had already won this war."

Anac's wife looked at him as she sighed before saying "I believe in you -----"

"Big brother, sorry to interrupt you but---" 

It was one of the members of the Henisi tribe. Stepping inside the ten he spoke. But before he could say anything more, Anac interrupted him as he asked "Did my brother come back?! finally!! I was getting tired of waiting"

Said Anac as he got from the stone throne. His huge towering body was nearly hitting the ceiling of the tent. 

The man who stood in front of Anac hesitated before saying "No---- it's not your brother. It is actually the leader of the Lenton House organization or at least that's what he claims to be."

Anac's wife's face twisted in a slight shock as she asked "How many people?"

To which the man replied with "Just one----- he came all alone."

Anac burst into laughter as he said "Alone?? that man must be really brave or suicidal. But anyway  let's go and meet this man." 

Anac walked closer to the exit of the tent. He had to crouch down to exit the tent since his head would just hit the exit. 

The man lead Anac to the center of the village, where the combat is usually conducted. The clear ground was water regularly to make it suitable to hold sparring season. It is a holy place for the henisi tribe. Such sparring ground is usually made in the center of the village. 

Even though it was a sparring ground. But there was no special characteristic to the ground, it was just normal ground. But a well-mainted ground.

As Anac walked to the center of the base/village, there was a crowd gathered at the center of village. Looking at the huge stature of Anac people dispersed away to give way for him.

"You are the leader of the Lenton house? kid, go away the Lenton House is just using you. Just deliver the news that your master has to give and go away!." said one of the men to the boy who was standing on the ground. 

"Ah, well----- I am my own master. I am the leader of the Lenton House." said the boy as he looked at the man.

Listening to the kid the whole village bursted into laughter. "Kid!!! kid!!! seriously!!! you are funny, so please go away I don't want to hurt you!."

The white-haired boy smiled as he said "By the way are you aware that in Henisi tribe. Once you enter the sacred ring with someone else, your life is in your own hand no one can stop me if it tried to kill you."

The white-haired boy who was Grey looked at the man's leg as he said that. The man was standing in the sacred ring with Grey.

"You sure know a lot about the Henisi tribe." said the man mockingly. 

"Yeah, I read it in a book."

The man looked towards his fellow tribemates as he said "He says that the city people are writing books on us. Aren't we popular?"

To the comment, every again busted in a laugh.

Grey sighed as she spoke, "So anyway, which one of you is the boss---- are your leader or  ------ or like you people call, which one of you is the big brother of the tribe?"

{Author: Henisi tribe leader is usually referred to as big brother.}

A giant-looking man raised his fist as he said "That would be me."

Grey turned to look at the source of the voice and the first that came out of his mouth was "Holy shit you are huge!"

"And you are little kid---- who sent you here?" asked Anac. 

Looking above Grey answered "Huh? what are you talking about? you killed my ten people so it's obvious that I should at least give you a visit."

"We? perhaps you are mistaken about something kid. It was not us who killed your people, it was-----"

A smirk formed across Grey's face as he chuckled "Now now, don't lie. Grandma Julia used to say people who lie usually end up getting their ass bitten by a crow."

Anac laughed before saying "That's something interesting I heard today. But we were not related to the attack that happened to your people."

Grey sighed as tapped his hand on the ground, gesturing Anac to sit beside him. Even though it looked like an innocent normal gesture, for the Henisi tribe inviting someone to the sacred ground is equivalent to challenging them.

"Come! sit, let's have some chit-chat," said Grey, inviting Anac to the ground.
