The Oyo Legacy: Birth and Rise of Tela
READING AGE 18+
Long before the fall of empires, before history learned to lie, a king was born of fire.
In the ancient Yoruba lands, where gods walked among men and blood sealed destinies, Sàngó Tẹ̀lá rose from war and prophecy to claim the throne of Oyo. Crowned by thunder and feared by spirits, he was destined to unite the fractured kingdoms after the last great war against idol worshippers and inhuman covens that crept from the southern forests.
But power has a price.
Bound by love to Osun—also known as Mourenikeji, a woman whose beauty hid a demonic lineage, Sàngó found himself trapped between desire and destiny. As reptilian witches of the southwest—led by the ancient stronghold of Ilé-Ifẹ̀, the dark heart of forbidden worship—waged a hidden war against the throne, betrayal seeped into the palace itself.
The conflict would cost Sàngó everything.
His beloved wives, Oya and Oba, fell not by enemy blades, but by a war that demanded sacrifice beyond the battlefield. Consumed by grief, rage, and divine madness, Sàngó unleashed a storm that shattered kingdoms and erased truths from history.
Yet legacies do not die with kings.
From the ashes of thunder rises Sọlá Aganjú, heir to blood, fire, and unfinished vengeance. Where Sàngó fell to the weight of godhood, Sọlá must choose whether to redeem the legacy—or drown the land in a war darker than the last.
This is not mythology as it was told. This is the war history buried. This is The Oyo Legacy.

The night sky over Ife burned with strange fire.
Torches flickered across the palace hills, and drums beat like restless hearts—slow, mournful, relentless.
The city that once boasted of wisdom, the cradle of gods and kings, had become a cauldron of whispers, deceit, and fear.
Oranyan rode through its gates with ten thousand war……
