Part 4: The Journey to the Ancient City The Curse of Tijjani: An Ancient Nigerian Tale of Love, Loss, and Redemption

Tijjani and Oliver had been walking for days, and the journey to the ancient city seemed to stretch on forever. They had been travelling through the dense jungle, and the oppressive heat was taking its toll on them.

Finally, after days of walking, they reached the edge of the jungle and could see the ancient city in the distance. The city was surrounded by a tall wall, and the sun was setting behind it, casting a golden glow over the city.

Tijjani and Oliver were both filled with a sense of awe and excitement as they approached the city. They had heard stories of the ancient city, but they had never seen it before.

As they entered the city, they were met by a group of people who welcomed them warmly. They were taken to a nearby inn, where they were given food and a place to rest.

The next morning, they set out to explore the city. They were amazed by the grandeur of the city, and the beauty of the architecture. Everywhere they looked, they saw something new and fascinating.

They also noticed that the city was bustling with activity. Everywhere they went, they saw people trading goods and services. They were also surprised to see that the city was filled with people from all walks of life.

After exploring the city, they made their way to the palace. As they approached the palace, they were met by a group of guards. The guards escorted them inside, and they were taken to the throne room.

Inside the throne room, they saw a large throne made of gold and jewels. Sitting on the throne was a beautiful woman with long, dark hair. She was wearing a long, flowing gown and a crown of gold.

The woman introduced herself as Amelia, the Queen of the Ancient City. She welcomed them warmly and thanked them for coming. She told them that she had been expecting them, and that she had a special task for them.

She explained that the city was under a curse, and that she needed their help to break it. She asked them to find the source of the curse and bring it back to her. She gave them a map and some supplies, and they set out on their journey.

Tijjani and Oliver were filled with a sense of purpose as they set out on their quest. They had no idea what they were looking for, but they were determined to find it. They travelled through the jungle, and eventually they reached a small village.

The villagers welcomed them warmly and told them the story of the curse. They said that it had been cast by a powerful sorcerer, and that the only way to break it was to find the sorcerer and bring him back to the city.

Tijjani and Oliver thanked the villagers and set out on their journey. They travelled through the jungle, and eventually they reached a large mountain. At the top of the mountain, they found the sorcerer's cave.

Inside the cave, they found the sorcerer. He was an old man, and he was very powerful. He told them that the only way to break the curse was to bring him back to the city. He said that he would give them a powerful amulet that would protect them from the curse.

Tijjani and Oliver thanked the sorcerer and set out on their journey back to the city. They travelled through the jungle, and eventually they reached the city. They presented the amulet to Amelia, and the curse was broken.

Amelia thanked them for their help and rewarded them with riches. She also gave them a special gift: a magical ring that would protect them from harm.

Tijjani and Oliver thanked Amelia and set out on their journey home. They travelled through the jungle, and eventually they reached their village. They were welcomed home with cheers and celebration.

Tijjani and Oliver had broken the curse, and they had saved the city. They had also found love in each other, and they were happy to be home.
