One of Satan’s demons who were keeping an eye on the group went back to Lucifer telling him that onya and lajables to seduce Philip and send one of his maji nwe(someone who uses blackmagic to sexually abuse women at nights) after onya and if that didn't work Satan had other plans to destroy any plans God had for them.
The sulphur springs was part of st.lucia's volcano. Way back before God created man on earth, this area erupted with terrible force. This explosion left behind a crater many miles wide, from its molten floor, raised two huge plugs of lava. They cooled eventual and became the pitons and too far away hot gases bubbled up through the thin crust, filling the air with clouds of the stream. This became the sulphur springs.
As the pair walked towards the springs which was a 30 minute walk from father Dubois' house Philip took a smell which was sinking
He asked" what in God's name is that smell
It’s the springs onya replied
Good grace is it poisonous?
No it isn't, it's very healthy and has healing powers
Really?
Yes really, the water in the bubbling pools is full of minerals. The ground around them sparkles with crystals of minerals such as sulphur. And it's sulphur they say that gives the horrible smell of rotten egg
So you except me to believe this water have healing powers?
It does, the Amerindians thought this was a frightening place with its boiling cauldrons and smelly steam filled air. They called qualibu (the place of death) she said
Those Amerindians had sense then
but they were wrong when they French came , they understood the healing waters powers king louisxvi ordered baths to be built on diamond estate but we will go to diamond estate some other time, right now we are going near the volcano
This is a nice, cool walk as the walk past coco trees, pineapples trees, hibiscus flowers, roses
This is beautiful Pierre was right this island is beautiful
We are finally here Onya said
The rotten egg smell got worst as they near the springs
They were many pools and Philip saw that the water was dark
