Sulumits struggled to place Ahmer on the horses back. His lack of experience with horses made the job almost impossible as he fastened his unconsious friend. It was just as difficult for him to climb the black stallion as the horse would not not stand still. When he finally managed to mount him, the horse bolted and Sulumits held on with all his might just to stay on. Finally after covering a good distance Sulumits managed to bring the horse to a trot and then stop and turn around. He can see where the other three loaded horses stood still in the distance. When he returned to his friend he was feeling very comfortable. After fastening the horses together, he took the lead heading for Paphos. After a steep hill that would have taken him hours to climb without the horses Sulumits reached the top where he can see Paphos in the distance with the sea and distant mountains in the background. He was also able to see other groups of people all on foot and some with packed donkeys heading toward Paphos from other roads. He moved his horses faster toward the closest group in hope that they would be able to help his friend. Sulumits had in his posession more wealth than the wealthiest of Paphos. He discovered that the horses were loaded down with silver and gold as well as many shiny and smooth colorful material that wasn’t like anything he ever seen. He also now owned many knives, swords, bows and arrows. The sword that he took off of the dead man was very light and was such a great fit to his hand that he did not want to put it away.He did put it in it’s case though and dangled by his side as the horses aproached a group of five men leading a mule loaded and packed so high that it was barely visible. The group consisted of only one man and what appeared to be his boys a little older than Sulumits and older. When he stopped to inquire about assistance for Ahmer the four immediately bowed. Sulumits said “Please speak to me for a moment” the older man replied “Please spare us, we are your servants” “Please stand up and tell me if you can help me with my friend who was struck and injured by an evil man, he breathes though he does not open his eyes or respond to my calling.” The old man stood and as he looked at Sulumits face his tone changed dramatically “These are not your horses, they belong to Adonis, the king of theses hills – why do you have his horses?” Sulumits was more concerned about his friend than answering questions. “Listen” he said, “I killed him for injuring my friend and I will give you one of his horses if you help me.” The old man was very excited, owning a horse was beyond his wildest dreams, only the rich and powerful were able to afford horses on the island.” “I can not do anything for your friend, nor can I go with you and leave my boys however, I can let my eldest son Elias go with you and lead you to the temple where all the sick and injured are taken and there you will find the help that you seek.” “Thank you” S.ulumits said “ your son will return with a horse” and with that Elias mounted a horse and with Sulumits help and assistance they were quickly galloping towards Paphos and the temple. As he approached, the road had many more people on it and they all must have thought that Sulumits was the evil Adonis as everyone bowed down on their knees as Sulumits Restambew passed by. ---- Read Sulumits retsambew Part-IV Cleo is the owner of Cyprus marketing solutions Ltd. a Paphos based company providing proven internet marketing solutions specializing in Real estate and also works on SEO.
