"Oh you fragile women! Since you are always taken as slaves and can't defend your kingdom, may you never be born in my Kingdom again! I announce that every girl child about to be born be killed. While every boy child from the age of seven be trained to fight war, and bring victory to my land. I curse every unborn girl child! I will never allow my Kingdom to be taken. And I will fight this war without women!" Yet, Rekiya was born!
