Oyá and Shango

In times when great battles were raging on earth for the power of the continents, there was a soldier of incomparable bravery named Kawo Sile.

This man had gained great prestige among the troops for fighting with great skill and courage, the enemy said of his sword, that he had never known a more accurate metal blade in the realization of military tactics.

Oyá in search of Shango

One day after a long battle, Shango, a name by which this warrior was also known, suffered an unfortunate ambush and fell captive into enemy hands.

Upon learning of this event Oyá, who was his wife and also an arduous warrior, enraged with great anger and set out in search of him in order to find him and give him back the freedom he so deserved.

As she passed, she destroyed every object she saw on the horizon. Engulfed in flames, she reached a Flamboyant tree and, tired from the long journey she had traveled, she decided to lie down on it.

Without noticing the fire in her body, she ignited the trunk of the tree until it burned completely, the saint found among her ashes a rare species of sheath, which she took as a weapon of self-defense.

Shangó from his captivity saw a fire in the distance, he was amazed to see that it was Oyá his wife, who was throwing sparks everywhere.

As he approached the camp, he attacked the enemy army with great fury until he had exterminated every single soldier in his presence with the help of his flamboyan sword.

Once he positioned himself face to face with Kawó Silé tried to use fire and lightning to melt the iron of the prison that held Shango in captivity, failing in the attempt, since the metal did not yield to the heat to which it was subjected.

It was then that she unsheathed her Framboyan sword and with its help she was able to knock down the bars that imprisoned her beloved.

From that day on, said sword accompanied her everywhere, becoming her inseparable confidant.
