Page 20 - The Real Story of Yashmal and Yaqub Chapter 1

In this new role, Ammo became a guardian of sorts, watching over the interactions between the
Inner and surface Earth. His experiences provided a unique perspective on the challenges and
opportunities that arose from the coexistence of these two worlds. Despite his exile, Ammo
maintained a deep connection to his heritage and his people, hoping for a future where
understanding and harmony could prevail between the Inner Earth inhabitants and the surface
dwellers. Ammo's home also became a crucial setting in the saga of Yaqub, his nephew. It was
within the walls of this humble abode that Princess Lusina and Yishawk, Ammo's brother,
conducted their illicit affair. This affair, shrouded in secrecy and defiance, eventually led to the
birth of Yaqub, a child destined to play a pivotal role in the unfolding narrative.

Ammo's presence in Yaqub's early life was significant. Following the tragic demise of Yaqub's
parents, it was Ammo who took on the role of guardian and mentor. In this role, Ammo not only
provided care and shelter but also became a guiding influence in Yaqub's formative years. He
exposed Yaqub to the surface world's ways and the hidden knowledge of the Inner Earth, though
he was cautious not to reveal too much, mindful of the potential consequences. Despite the
challenges, Ammo remained dedicated to his role, nurturing Yaqub and helping him navigate
the complexities of his unique heritage and the turbulent emotions stemming from his parents'
fate. Ammo's influence on Yaqub was profound, shaping his worldview and his understanding of
both the surface world and the hidden realms below.

This clandestine relationship, however, was not without its consequences. The birth of Yaqub, a
child born from their union, was a symbol of their defiance, but also a harbinger of the
complexities and challenges that lay ahead. The affair, now manifested in the form of a child, set
in motion a series of events that would forever alter the course of their lives and the history of
the Inner Earth. The illicit affair between Princess Lusina and Yishawk, conducted in secret,
eventually became known to the inhabitants of the Inner Earth. As the news of their betrayal
spread, it sparked outrage among both the Shuyukh and Siyniyn tribes. The affair not only
violated the sacred laws but also threatened the delicate balance and peace between the tribes.

King Fuquur, upon learning of the affair, was faced with a difficult decision. The transgression
by his brother Yishawk and his own wife, Princess Lusina, demanded a response that upheld the
laws of their society. His choice to execute Yishawk and exile Lusina was seen as both a
punishment and a necessary act to preserve the integrity and order of their community.

This decision, while maintaining law and order, had far-reaching emotional consequences. For
Princess Lusina, exile meant a complete separation from her people and the world she knew,
thrusting her into an unfamiliar and harsh reality. The weight of her actions, coupled with the
loss of her lover and the burden of raising their child alone, led to a profound sense of despair
and isolation, eventually culminating in her tragic decision to end her life.
