Sophia, a beautiful maiden in the village of Asana.She was the everyday talk of many in Asana.Her beautiful black skin coupled with her contagious smile made many to love her.She lived with her grandmother after her parents suffered at the hands of death in a fatal accident when she was only a toddler.Aside her beauty,she was a gem at playing flute.Anytime the flute sounded on her lips,many turned in awe and wonder that a girl of such age could play the instrument with such commensurate skill.She could play the flute such that wherever you are in Asana you could feel goose bumps all over.She was indeed a blessed child.Little did she know that some unscrupulous men had plotted against her because they felt she was getting too much attention in the village.
One one fine afternoon as she was walking hastily back home after some good rehearsals with the flute at the banks of the Birem river,these men came from nowhere to attack her.It seemingly appeared that Sophia was helpless..They gripped her by the hand,raped her and threw her beautiful flute away.She could hardly make a sound for someone to come to her rescue,it was indeed an awful sight to behold.
After this,these wicked folks left her and with her flute by her side she blew her last breadth into it and it was as if ten seraphims were singing from the flute.
She died after this and Sophia's flute laid by her side until people came to see her mortal remains at the banks of the river Birem.
