Ekwefi says that children are a "woman's crowning glory," and before Ezinma was born, her own life was consumed with the desire to have a healthy child. But nine times, she lost children in infancy. A woman's status in Igbo society is related to how many children she bears and how many of them are male. But although women's child-bearing abilities are an important aspect of their status, Okonkwo and Ekwefi's deep concern and fondness for Ezinma shows that, despite the divide between manly and womanly qualities, woman play an essential role in Igbo society.
Women are responsible for preparing most of the celebratory activities, which strengthen relations within the village and with other communities. Women also create the decorations for the huts as well as elaborate body art.
Another important aspect of women in Igbo society is represented by Chielo, who is significant because, as a woman, she speaks on behalf of the God Agbala. Chielo refers to Ezinma as her "daughter," which may indicate that she will replace Chielo's position as priestess. Further, she is the only one of Okonkwo's children who truly understands his desires. A famous medicine man whom Okonkwo summons for help in dealing with Ezinma's health problems with a stone.
The discovery of the iyi-uwa makes it so that the priest and Okonkwo will not bother her about being an ogbanje anymore. Her earlier brothers and sisters die shortly after they are born, most not lasting more than 3 years. The search for iyi-uwa is a way to prevent Ezinma from returning to the world of ogbanje. By finding the cursed stone, they can prevent Ezinma from dying. He tells Okonkwo that the child is an ogbanje, a child who after dying re-enters their mother's womb to be born again.
Crystal Beauty. This is probably the iyi-uwa, a stone owned by ogbanje. With posession of this stone, the medicine man is able to prevent Ezinma from dying and being reborn in Ekwefi again only to repeat the cycle of death and rebirth. Due to superstition, they believe Ezinma is an ogbanje, a child who will die only to be reborn in her mother's womb. As such, the family is required to find her iwi-uya putting Ezinma through a trial as she struggles to make up a story that will fulfill the villagers' fantasy.
Ezinma is now 10, and ogbanje generally stay if they do not die before turning 6. Both of them care deeply about Ezinma. Ezinma has not been sick in some time, implying she has also been sick earlier. Do you think Link is a girl?

With every torrent link there is a direct Link given. You can directly use that link. The first dispute that comes before the egwugwu involves an estranged husband and wife. The husband, Uzowulu, states that the three brothers of his wife, Mgbafo, beat him and took her and the children from his hut but would not return her bride-price.
They argue that Uzowulu must beg Mgbafo to return to him. If she agrees, the brothers declare, Uzowulu must understand that they will cut his genitals off if he ever beats her again. The egwugwu decide in favor of Mgbafo. One village elder complains that such a trifling matter should not be brought before them. Ekwefi tells Ezinma a story about a greedy, cunning tortoise.
All of the birds have been invited to a feast in the sky and Tortoise persuades the birds to lend him feathers to make wings so that he can attend the feast as well. As they travel to the feast, Tortoise also persuades them to take new names for the feast according to custom.
The birds, angry and disgruntled at receiving only scraps, take back the feathers that they had given to Tortoise so that he is unable to fly home. Tortoise persuades Parrot to deliver a message to his wife: he wants her to cover their compound with their soft things so that he may jump from the sky without danger. When Tortoise jumps, his shell breaks into pieces on impact. Chielo takes Ezinma on her back and forbids anyone to follow.
Ekwefi overcomes her fear of divine punishment and follows anyway. Why does Ezinma have a bag of rocks from the book Things Fall Apart?
