9-11

Ezinma is struggling in death. Ezinma is in fever and Okownko hears it. Ekewifi gets scared and worried at single time he catches any illness. The chapters tell about egwugu which was the ancestrial spirit thing. Then it goes again to the story between Ezinma and Ekewifi. Ekewifi tells Ezinma a story about a tortoise who was selfish. The literal meaning for it was eventually that tortoise's shell is smooth but there must have a deeper meaning to it.
