Kafi was just an ordinary girl, living with her parents in a small village located at the Eastern side of their country. In the hands of kafi lies a great power that nobody else in the country possessed. Earlier, she was not aware of her powers and avoids making contact with people. She gets scared easily when she's in the midst of the crowd. Her parents thought she was possessed by some spirit, as she speaks weird things in her sleep, talks to herself and smiles mysteriously. She often had night mares that are terrifying, and her dream always comes to pass. She once predicted the death of an old woman's son which came to pass. They called her a witch and a sorcerer. Her anger brings devastation and always results in destruction. Her parents were worried about her and they warned her never to touch anybody or predict their future. Anytime she suppresses her powers and tried to keep it in, she got a serious headache and often pass out. She had no choice than to use her powers.

Soon, her powers became known thoughout the country. Great men from all over the country sought for her and her powers, they wants to know their future, their fate and what lies ahead of them. As a result, many seek to assassinate her, some planned to kill her while some planned to abduct her and use her for their own suit.

What lies behind her great power? Her parents begins to wonder. The secret her parents kept from her was that she was found in the bush while she was still a baby then they took her home and she became their child. They took her to several places to trace her source and know the reasons for her powers, but their attempt proved abortive. The only thing she possessed when she was found was a necklace found on her neck which she always have around her neck.

An unfortunate incidence occured when kafi was ambushed on her way from the market, she was abducted and taken away. When she wakes up from the faint slumper, she found herself in an unknown place. The man who planned her abduction wanted to use her powers to gain power and wealth. She remained bounded hands and feet after attempting to escape earlier. The took her necklace from her, thinking that's where her power lies. They had no idea that the necklace was meant to protect her and her powers. Immediately the necklace was removed, she began to feel enraged, everything resulted into commotion and turbulence. Every one around her died at the moment and she fainted, and when she wakes up, she found herself in an unknown place and calls for help. An old woman came out and called her "helen"

This old woman narrated her life story to her, she was present when her mother gave birth to her. While she was still in her mother's womb, a prophesy arose about the unborn baby and how her birth will be chaos to the world. The king of the land planned to kill the child after she was born. Her mother gave birth a twin instead and while trying to escape from the king's guard who was chasing after her to kill her child, kafi, whose real name was Helen got lost and the mother and her twin sister were killed. Nobody knows she exist except for the old woman. The necklace was given to her mother and it was meant to keep her hidden until she has control over the power she possessed.

Now that she knows her story, she will face her world and her life. Her powers are not meant to bring doom to the world. It's a gift rather to help change the world into a better place. Without the necklace, her powers came out in full force and she became stronger than ever before. She wouldn't hurt the innocent, rather she will use her powers to change the world.

She is really powerful and I am glad she used it well. That's what powerful people faces, they are always wanted to be killed or delete from existing.
