Introduction
The High Council of Avalon has received a report from the New Race Commission on Planet Earth, indicating that the newly created race of human beings, known as the Greyman Being, is now sufficiently numerous. The time has come for Earth to enter its era of light, with these beings, formed from the genetic materials of both Greys and Earth's humans, serving as the biological uplifters.
––––––––
For millennia, the Race Commission has diligently worked on the creation of the Greyman Being. Contributors among human beings, who provided their genetic material, reported being abducted by the Race Commission from Avalon.
––––––––
The Greyman Being awaits in anticipation within their garden, poised for the day when they will coexist with both Greys and Humans. The angels celebrated this news with joy, having long expressed concerns to the Universe Authorities about the lack of spiritual progress among Earth's human beings, who have tended to focus on weaponry, dominance, and internal conflicts.
––––––––
Now that the new race is formed, attention shifts to the chosen leader tasked with guiding Earth into the new Age. This leader is anticipated to be the long-awaited Messiah, known as Kwaku Ananse. While some may see him as a savior, others may perceive him as the Antichrist. A high Avonal son, well-versed in such matters, was selected for this crucial role. The arrival of Kwaku Ananse, born on Earth and carrying the soul of the Avonal as his higher self, marks the beginning of a transformative journey for the planet
The Evil Forest
Kwaku Ananse returned from the farm to meet his tribesmen, who were gathered at the chief’s palace. A misfortune had befallen the Osono clan of Asase: a strange sickness had sent five people of the clan to their graves within hours of their having fallen ill.
––––––––
One of the victims was Kwaku Ananse’s one and only son, Ntikuma. Kwaku Ananse broke down in tears when he heard the shocking news of his son’s death. He had never before wept so deeply. The clan members all gathered around Ananse to console him, but no one was able to stop the tears from flowing from his eyes, which kept up for hours. Ntikuma was the only nuclear family member that Ananse had in Asase, so the boy’s death was a very big blow to the father.
––––––––
The entire clan was living in fear of this strange phenomenon. They didn’t know who was going to be the next victim. Just a month ago, the entire township had suffered from crop failure when locusts descended from nowhere, invading their farms and destroying the entire maize farm belonging to the Osono clan.
––––––––
The chief of the Osono clan in the land of Asase addressed his people and assured them that their god would intervene in a timely manner to arrest the situation.
––––––––
Kwaku Ananse, who had joined the gathering during the chief’s address, left the meeting grounds and headed to the oracle of the god of the Osono clan to determine the specific cause of the menace that was bringing this series of misfortunes to his people. At the oracle, the god, through his priest, informed Kwaku Ananse that the origin of the disaster was the evil forest in the land of Asase.
––––––––
Kwaku Ananse was famed as a great farmer and hunter. He had two pets that had been with him since his descent on the land of Asase as a newborn child. He went nowhere without these two pets, Mens Mentis and Emovere.
––––––––
Kwaku Ananse made a decision only after consulting with Mens Mentis, and he acted only when Emovere propelled his body to do so. Mens Mentis and Emovere had become like animal-gods to Kwaku Ananse. Mens Mentis analyzed an issue presented to him through Kwaku Ananse’s senses, and then later presented his analysis to Kwaku Ananse so the latter could take a decision. When Kwaku Ananse expressed his will in the form of a command, Emovere picked up the command and thence commanded Kwaku Ananse’s body into action.
––––––––
Kwaku Ananse then said in his heart, I shall meet the Devil face-to-face and we shall see which one of us perishes.
––––––––
Emovere then spoke: ‘Feel how passionate you are for the welfare of your people? Feel how angry you have become? Go and defeat the Devil.’
––––––––
Kwaku Ananse then said to the priest of the god of the Osono clan, ‘I will enter the evil forest and destroy the Devil, and I shall replace the sorrow in our land with joy.’
––––––––
The priest of the oracle said, ‘We have lost enough souls in this evil forest, and we are loath to sacrifice any more. Think deeply about the decision you will take, for no one has ever entered the evil forest and returned alive. The day that you take the first step into the evil forest shall become your last. I speak not for myself, as I am just a vessel.’
––––––––
Kwaku Ananse considered the warning of the priest, yet Emovere said, ‘Let’s proceed to the evil forest.’ Kwaku Ananse then left the shrine and headed to the chief’s palace, where the chief and the people had gathered in mourning for those lost. He bowed before his chief and announced his decision to embark on his fateful journey. The chief and the elders of the town became very troubled of heart when they heard his words.
––––––––
The chief rose from his seat and
