YOUR ESCORT (A collection Of African Short Stories)

No one travels alone.

⇒ A child never fetched water without an elder's watchful eye.

⇒A trader never crossed the seven hills without a song on their lips and a prayer tied to their waist.

⇒A hunter never stepped into the forest without the whispers of ancestors rustling through the trees.

No one journeys alone.

So, when the road stretches long and the night grows heavy, when you feel the weight of solitude pressing against your back, remember-

You need an escort.

And here, you have one.

Your Escort is a gathering of stories told by firelight, stories that remember when wisdom was carried in proverbs and fate was woven into the dust beneath our feet.
