It all began when her sick mother was unable to accompany her to the waterhole. So she takes it upon herself to travel alone to the dangerous "Mountain Chasm". On the way, she met Kolima, the sorcerer's daughter, and Ghizarbo the varan, on their way to a village meeting. Curious, she followed them and learned that the king's son, Prince Dubal, was looking to marry. He was looking for the future princess. Only Doulassi met the recommended criteria. As she had to get home before sunset, she hurried off to fetch water. But Kolima and her acolyte decided to accompany her. Since then, no one has seen her. She vanished into thin air.
