The King has lost weight because he is stressed, the Kingdom is slowly perishing it is losing it's crops and the river is drying up, the King does not know what to do anymore the only river that has not dried up is the Ngonyama sacred river which no man dares to enter it is said that only the chosen Ngonyama decendant can enter the river and perform the rituals needed and he who dares to enter the Ngonyama sacred river and is not the chosen one will either go insane or be wiped from the face of the earth so no man dares to go there.
The King went into Bab'Mbathas rondavel to talk to him about the things that have been happening in the Kingdom, he knocked and Bab'Mbatha told him to come in.

Bab'Mbatha did as he was told, meanwhile Queen Delisile was standing by the door listening to what was being said by the King and Bab'Mbatha. When she heard him confess she got furious and went to the witch that helped her become Queen. She walked down the forest till she got to Khondlo's hut, when she got there she took off her shoes and got in without knocking.
