The chapter begins with a description of a state visit by the President of Abazon, another African country, to Kangan.

Chapter 1: The Accursed
The chapter opens in the village of Samaru near the Kenyan-Tanzanian border on a hot, dry afternoon. Under a neem tree, a group of hunters discuss the disappearance of four Masai tribesmen. They suspect foul play as the men vanished during a rainless period when their cattle should have been safe.
Meanwhile, in the lush forest nearby, a young man named Sam Kahiga is on a solitary walk. He comes across a group of hunters preparing to set a trap for elephants. As they talk, he learns of the missing Masai and becomes concerned.
Sam, a writer and journalist, returns to his humble abode in the village. He encounters his childhood friend, Ole Kaelo, a Masai elder known for his wisdom and courage. Ole reveals that the missing Masai are being held captive by the Hand, a ruthless organization led by a shadowy figure known as "The Accursed."
The Accursed has been terrorizing the region, abducting people and torturing them for unknown reasons. Fear and tension grip the village as rumors of The Accursed's brutality spread. As the sun sets, casting an eerie glow over the landscape, Sam resolves to investigate the Hand's activities and uncover the truth behind the missing tribesmen.
