I explained, and they were all confused. "You mean you are behind what we heard happened in Rukum?" The Sarki asked, and I nodded. "How? What deity do you speak of?" "Ruhun'Daji," I replied, and they were all shocked. No one could speak. "Are you sure of what you are saying?" One of the chiefs asked me. "I can prove it. In fact, that is why I have come here.
