Part five of 60-years old story
After the decision, Ali returned to his hometown and moved to another area where his uncle lived.
Ali started his journey the next morning feeling that he was slow to leave his mother but his mother promised that everything would be fine once he left this village.
He arrived safely in the village where his uncle lived and was warmly welcomed and advised to start a new life there so that he could eventually take his mother and settle down.
Ali did not lose a shoulder since he was living with his uncle but there was still concern that he was missing his mother who was his first shoulder.
Meanwhile, the fighting broke out in their village under the leadership of Ali\’s Uncle and the daily reports of casualties between the two warring clans were reported daily.
Ali began to continue his career as a herdsman in a safe environment where he hired his uncle to work for one of the wealthiest people in the area who needed a reliable worker.
Ali soon became praised for his work as he did in their village where he was always rewarded with his own livestock.
In the aftermath of the tragedy, one day he received the unfortunate news that their village had been defeated and their area had been taken over, with reports of casualties.
Ali immediately tried to move there and told his uncle that it was not appropriate for anyone to go there but Ali refused because he was missing his mother.
During the discussion, his uncle decided to leave to stay with Ali to inform his sister in the village.
