Not long after, the widow gave birth to a son, Aiwel. Though he was very recently birthed, Aiwel was already able to move around and communicate in complete sentences. The widow eventually found out Aiwel ’ s talents. However, he warned her that she would die if she told anyone of what Aiwel can do. Unfortunately, she told someone, and death came for her. Aiwel grew up with his father following his mother ’ s death. Eventually, he returned to his mother ’ s village. In the second version of the myth, the widow was on a stream with her daughter to catch a fish when a river deity splashed her. From then on, she became pregnant. It took eight years before she finally gave birth to Aiwel. The widow ’ s daughter did not accept Aiwel as her brother because she deemed it impossible due to the widow ’ s elderly age. Aiwel stayed in the village nonetheless, though he struggled to survive and became a pariah. References Category:Dinka mythology Category:Africa
