Maramma And The Spirit Of The Bush
Once upon a time in the peaceful village of Umuoma, there lived a bright and kind-hearted 7-year-old girl named Onyinye.
One crisp morning, with the first light of dawn, Onyinye decided to wander into the nearby bush to catch some snails for her family’s breakfast. She was excited and full of adventure, but soon, she realized she had wandered too far and lost her way.
The tall trees loomed over her, and the rustling leaves whispered secrets she couldn’t understand. Onyinye felt a pang of fear but tried to stay calm.
Her pure heart and kind nature, however, did not go unnoticed. A gentle, shimmering light appeared before her, taking the form of a beautiful female spirit named Abali.
“Do not be afraid, Onyinye,” Abali said with a soothing voice. “I am here to guide you home.”
Abali held Onyinye’s hand, and together they walked through the dense bush. Along the way, Abali protected Onyinye from bad and wicked entities that lurked in the shadows, trying to scare or harm her. With Abali’s guidance, the path seemed brighter and less frightening.
As they approached the edge of the village, Abali knelt at Onyinye’s level. “Onyinye,” she said gently, “you must promise me never to leave home alone so early to wander into the bush. It is unsafe for children your age.”
Onyinye nodded, her eyes wide with gratitude and understanding. “I promise, Abali. Thank you for protecting me.”
With a kind smile, Abali hugged Onyinye. “Remember to stay safe, my dear.” And with that, before anyone else could see her, Abali disappeared into thin air.
Years passed, and Onyinye grew into a wise and compassionate woman. Now in her late 30s, she lived modestly, always helping those in need despite her financial struggles.
One evening, as Onyinye was preparing dinner, a familiar, shimmering light filled her humble home. It was Abali, looking as radiant as ever.
“Onyinye,” Abali began, “I have come to ask a favour. My younger sister recently passed away, leaving behind two orphaned daughters. They need a loving home. Will you take them in and care for them as your own?”
Onyinye’s heart ached for the girls, but she also felt a pang of worry. She barely had enough to support herself. Seeing her hesitation, Abali placed a comforting hand on her shoulder.
“Do not worry, Onyinye,” Abali reassured. “With this favour comes good fortune. Your kindness will be rewarded.”
Trusting in Abali’s words and remembering the protection she received as a child, Onyinye agreed. “I will take them in, Abali. I will love and care for them as my own.”
The very next day, the two girls arrived at Onyinye’s home. They were sweet and well-behaved, bringing joy and laughter into Onyinye’s life. Miraculously, as Abali had promised, good fortune followed. Onyinye’s small business began to flourish, and her home was filled with love and happiness.
Onyinye knew that her decision to help the orphans was blessed by Abali. She never forgot the lesson she learned as a child about the importance of kindness and courage.
And so, Onyinye, her two adopted daughters, and the spirit of Abali lived happily, proving that with a pure heart and a willingness to help others, even the most daunting challenges could be turned into blessings.
And every night, before bed, Onyinye would tell her daughters the story of the kind spirit who had walked her home and changed her life forever.
The folklore centres around the entity in the bush, but here are some clarifications required, but are not related in meaning.
