The three friends had been walking for hours, and the sun was beginning to set. They had been walking through the forest, and they were getting tired. Olayinka and Amelia were starting to get worried, but Ifeoluwa seemed to be strangely calm.
Finally, they reached a clearing in the forest. In the center of the clearing was a large stone circle, surrounded by a ring of stones. Olayinka and Amelia looked at each other in confusion, but Ifeoluwa seemed to know exactly what was going on.
"This is an initiation," Ifeoluwa said. "We have to go through the circle to prove our courage and strength."
Olayinka and Amelia looked at each other nervously. They had no idea what was going to happen, but they knew that they had to trust Ifeoluwa.
The three of them stepped into the circle and began to walk around it. As they walked, Ifeoluwa began to chant. The words were strange and unfamiliar, but they seemed to have a power of their own.
As they walked, the stones began to glow with a strange light. Olayinka and Amelia felt a strange energy coursing through them. They felt a sense of strength and courage that they had never felt before.
Finally, they reached the center of the circle. Ifeoluwa stopped chanting and looked at them. "You have passed the initiation," she said. "You are now part of the journey."
Olayinka and Amelia looked at each other in amazement. They had no idea what was going to happen next, but they were ready for whatever came their way. They were ready to continue their journey.
