Part 8: The Flight of the Warlord: 1279AD "The Curse of the Oyo-Ibadan Warlord: A Tale of Betrayal in 1279AD"

The sun was setting on the horizon, casting a red hue across the sky. The Oyo-Ibadan warlord had been on the run for days, ever since his betrayal had been discovered. He had been betrayed by his own people, and now he was a wanted man.

The warlord had been a powerful leader in the region, but his ambition had led him to make a deal with the Ibadan people. He had promised them a share of the Oyo-Ibadan wealth in exchange for their support in a war against the Oyo people. But the Oyo people had found out about the deal and had declared him a traitor.

The warlord had been forced to flee, and he had been running ever since. He had been chased by Oyo warriors for days, and he was exhausted and desperate. He had no choice but to keep running, and he had been heading south in the hopes of finding a safe haven.

Finally, after days of running, the warlord had reached the edge of the Oyo-Ibadan border. He was relieved to have made it this far, but he knew that he was still in danger. He had to find a way to cross the border without being seen.

The warlord decided to take a chance and fly across the border. He had heard stories of a powerful bird that could carry a man across the border in a single night. He had no idea if the stories were true, but he had to try.

The warlord climbed to the top of a nearby tree and waited for the bird to appear. As the sun set, he saw a large black bird soaring in the sky. He watched as the bird flew closer and closer, until it was directly above him.

The warlord jumped off the tree and grabbed onto the bird's back. He held on tightly as the bird flew across the border, and soon he was in Ibadan. He had made it!

The warlord had escaped the Oyo-Ibadan border, but his troubles were far from over. He was still a wanted man, and he knew that he would have to keep running if he wanted to stay alive. But for now, he was safe. He had escaped the curse of the Oyo-Ibadan warlord.
