Determined and curious, she yearns for more than her humble life. Little does she know that her fate will take her on an extraordinary journey, forever changing her life.

When a mysterious illness strikes her grandmother, Zilia discovers that her village lacks the necessary healers to cure her. With unwavering determination to save her grandmother, Zilia embarks on a perilous expedition to the distant land of Lebombo, renowned for its gifted healers. Armed with nothing but her resilience and a heart filled with hope, she sets off, leaving behind her loved ones who admire her bravery.

The journey to Lebombo is fraught with challenges. Zilia must traverse treacherous terrains, overcome fierce obstacles, and face her own fears. She encounters various tribes, each with their own traditions and beliefs, broadening her understanding of the world.
