“Etim ‘Ne sent a boy to the skies to ask Obassi Osaw for fire, which he rejected. The boy decided to continue his quest, nevertheless and ingratiated himself in Obassi Osaw’s household. After proving himself by running several errands, the boy was sent by Obassi Osaw to retrieve a lamp from one of his wives.”
