This story revolves around Wanjiku, a blind seer whose inability to see the physical world is overshadowed by her profound inner vision. Blessed with the gift of foresight, Wanjiku guides her community through times of peace and peril with her wisdom.
As a severe drought threatens the survival of her village, the wise Wanjiku instructs the villagers to seek help from an ancient elephant, known to possess the knowledge of hidden water sources. The journey is fraught with challenges, but it leads to a forgotten spring, securing the village’s future.
