Groot Willem urged that he could be banished from the kraal, and forbidden to return to it on penalty of death. Macora hesitated a little longer; but remembering that he had promised to grant any favour to the one who had released him from imprisonment in the tree, he yielded. Sindo's life should be spared on condition of his expatriating himself at once and forever from the kraal of Macora.
Sindo's visit had been a stolen one, for the purpose of bringing away his wife and children. In this he had been successful; but he had also succeeded in bringing away something more, information that the Zooloo chief, that our young hunters had offended, was still thirsting for revenge for his losses and disappointments.
A large force had immediately been sent to capture Macora and his people, or chase them, as Sindo said, "out of the world." The enemy might be expected in two or three hours! Sindo's warning was not unheeded; and scouts were at once sent out to watch for the approach of the enemy. A danger that Macora had already apprehended was now threatening them.
But for the mention of Sindo's name, as the captives were being conducted to the place of execution, awakening in the Zooloo's mind a suspicion of treachery, the rescuers would have arrived too late. The delay caused by the inquiry after Sindo, at the village, was that which had caused the cup to slip. The released captives now inquired for Sindo, wishing to embrace him.
