Once Upon a Time, there lived a benevolent king and queen who ruled over their enchanted kingdom of Hadithia, a lush land outside of time and space created by the Orisha for their people of the Diaspora to find new life. Though the land was filled with only the purest raw magic, it could easily be manipulated for cruel schemes and wicked tricks.
Because of a broken heart and a trickster Orishan god, the land was torn into two pieces: one hidden from this plain of existence, and one cursed upon it. The twin heirs to the kingdom were forced apart, one to rule each land to protect their people and the magic of Hadithia.
This is an anthology of stories collected from the broken kingdom and transcribed for modern day readers to behold. These tales are filled with romance, adventure, magic and legends that have been shared across the many countries of Africa for generations. Enjoy.
