Описание: ✨ STORY TITLE:
THE BETRAYAL OF ÈJÌOGBÈ TO ORAGUN – A Yoruba Tale of Deception, Humility, and Redemption

🌿 INTRODUCTION
Welcome to IFAStories — where sacred Yoruba stories are reborn through cinematic visual storytelling. In this powerful tale, we witness how betrayal among brothers, divine justice, and spiritual resilience transform the destiny of a prince into the legacy of a healer.

📘 SUMMARY
Olofin, the wise and blind king, prepares to bless his loyal son Oragun with the gifts of governance, wisdom, and wealth. But before the ceremony, Èjìogbè, Oragun’s own brother, impersonates him and deceitfully receives the blessings meant for another.

Shocked and humiliated, Oragun flees in heartbreak, wandering without direction. His anguish is profound — not only for what was taken from him, but for the betrayal by blood. In his suffering, Oragun calls upon San Lázaro (Babalú Ayé), the Òrìṣà of affliction and healing.

Though Olofin cannot reverse the blessing once given, he delivers a divine decree:

“True greatness is not in what is given, but in how one serves.”

With humility and newfound strength, Oragun’s path transforms. No longer destined for power, he becomes a beacon of healing, justice, and compassion, rising through service rather than privilege. In time, he is honored more than kings — not for what he gained, but for how he lifted others in their pain.
