A dense, mysterious forest at night, with towering trees and thick underbrush. The ground is wet from recent rain, and mist hangs in the air. In a small clearing, two newborn twins wrapped in a single cloth are placed gently on the ground by a group of somber midwives. Nearby, the parents, Obi and Nkechi, look on with grief and despair. The midwives wear traditional Igbo clothing, and the forest is filled with dark shadows and the glow of fireflies. An old mystic woman, Mama Ejima, appears from the shadows, her white hair glowing in the darkness, offering to take the twins.
