Catherine Olsen All Things Fall Apart Agbala

Agbala



I am the oracle of the Nigerian tribe. I have a shrine that is inside a cave somewhere in the Nigerian Village and that's where I talk to my priestess. Okonkwo the village leader was asked me why his crops were failing. I told him that his crops were failing because he was lazy, he had angered the gods, his sons were disturbing the growth of the crops and he was being punished for what his father had done in the past. I am worshiped in a cave where the people enter through a hole in the side of the cave. My priestess is Cheilo. She is a widowed mother of two children and she takes care of my daughter like her own. Agbala proclaims the will of god to the ones who ask for help.
