The Kingdom Cast in Metal: The Powerful History Behind the Benin Bronzes and the Royal Palace Art of the Edo Kingdom

The Kingdom Cast in Metal Long before modern Nigeria was created and long before colonial rule reached West Africa, there stood a powerful and sophisticated kingdom known as the Kingdom of Benin. Located in what is today Edo State in southern Nigeria, this kingdom became famous for its organization, powerful rulers, and an artistic tradition so advanced that it shocked the outside...

ADEBIMPE (Episode 1)

My name is Adebimpe. At least… that was the name my mother whispered into my ear the night before they took me away. I remember her hands shaking as she braided my hair, tight and neat, the way she always did when she was afraid but didn’t want me to know. The moonlight slipped through the cracks in our mud wall, resting on her face like it wanted to memorize her too....

ADEBIMPE (Episode 12)

Adebimpe (Episode 12) Yet I felt the distance between us widen. As I cleaned, my thoughts wandered to my mother again. She used to say, “When someone shows you how much they trust you, believe them. When they show you doubt, remember it too.” I remembered. After finishing, I bowed. “I will return later, my prince.” “Wait,” he said. I stopped....

ADEBIMPE (Episode 15)

Adebimpe (POV) My body gave up before my spirit did. It started as a dull ache behind my eyes, the kind I could ignore if I worked slowly. Then my limbs grew heavy, as though the palace itself had climbed onto my back. Still, I swept. Still, I cleaned. Still, I served. Because in the palace, rest was a luxury slaves could not afford. That morning, when I tried to rise from my mat, the room...

ADEBIMPE (Episode 16)

Prince Adewale (POV) I left her quarters troubled. This was not how things were meant to be. A servant falls sick; the palace moves on. That was the rule. That was the way. Yet I could not shake the image of her lying there—small, exhausted, fragile in a way she never allowed herself to be while standing. That night, I barely slept. King Adeyemi (POV) News travels fast in a palace....

ADEBIMPE (Episode 17)

Prince Adewale (POV) I had already given the order. “Iya Morounkeji,” I told her the previous evening, “Adebimpe is to stop all other duties. She will only clean my room and bring my meals. Nothing else.” She looked at me for a long moment, the way elders do when they see trouble forming but cannot stop it. “She is recovering well, my prince,” she said...

ADEBIMPE (Episode 18)

Adebimpe (POV) When the prince touched my neck, my heart almost left my body. Not because it hurt. Not because it was rough. But because it was unexpected and gentle. For a brief second, I forgot where I was. Then fear rushed in to replace the warmth. The palace had taught me one thing clearly: closeness without permission was dangerous. “My prince,” I had stuttered, stepping...

ADEBIMPE (Episode 19)

Prince Adewale (POV) I had been thinking about her skin. That was the most dangerous part not that it was soft, but that my mind returned to it without invitation. The brief contact from days ago lingered like a memory my body refused to forget. If her skin was that soft… How soft would her lips be? I almost laughed at myself. Crazy, Adewale. Completely crazy. She knocked...

ADEBIMPE (Episode 20)

Prince Adewale stood before the throne, his hands clasped behind him, his back straight, yet his heart was anything but calm. The palace felt unusually silent that morning, as though the walls themselves were waiting to hear his truth. The King sat tall, authority resting easily on his shoulders. Beside him, the Queen watched her son closely, a mother’s eyes sharp enough to sense...

ADEBIMPE (Episode 21)

Adewale’s POV I watched her from a distance as she worked, the afternoon sun slipping through the palace windows and resting gently on her skin. Adebimpe never knew how easily she owned my thoughts. Even in silence, she spoke to my heart. I called her name softly. “Adebimpe.” She turned immediately, startled. “Yes, my prince?” I hated that title in...

ADEBIMPE (Episode 22)

Adebimpe’s POV My hands trembled as I followed the palace guard down the long corridor. Every step felt heavier than the last. The King and Queen… I had served in this palace for years, yet I had never stood before them like this not as a worker, but as the woman their son wished to marry. When the great doors opened, my heart nearly jumped out of my chest. I dropped...

ADEBIMPE (Episode 23)

Adewale’s POV The palace courtyard was full. Chiefs. Elders. Guards. Servants. Everyone. I stood beside my father, the crown heavy on my head not because of its weight, but because of what I was about to do. I searched the crowd until I found her. Adebimpe. She stood quietly, unaware that her life was about to change in front of the entire kingdom. I stepped forward. “People...

ADEBIMPE (Episode 24)

Adewale’s POV I saw her trembling, and my heart clenched. I reached out, not touching her, but close enough for her to feel me there. “She will no longer serve this palace as a maid,” I announced. “She will be taught. Guided. Honored.” I turned to my parents. The King nodded once firm and final. The Queen smiled, pride shining in her eyes. The approval of...

ADEBIMPE (Episode 25)

Adebimpe’s POV The mirror no longer recognized me. I stood before it, dressed in silk the color of morning cream, my hair styled neatly, my neck heavy with jewelry I never asked for. The girl staring back looked royal… but inside, I still felt like the maid who used to wake before dawn to scrub palace floors. Who am I now? I wondered. Since the declaration, everything had...

ADEBIMPE (Episode 26)

The Queen’s POV She had spoken the truth. I smiled faintly. “Good,” I said. She looked confused. “A woman who fears losing herself will never lose herself,” I explained. “The palace is full of women who learned posture but forgot purpose.” I stood and walked slowly around her. “Your first lesson,” I said, “is this: Royalty is not...

ADEBIMPE (Final Episode 27)

Adebimpe’s POV That was how my life changed. Not in one loud moment, not with thunder or drums, but slowly like dawn breaking after a long, dark night. Sometimes I still wake up and touch my hands, half-expecting to feel the roughness of work, the memory of soap and broomsticks. But my hands are softer now, not because life is easier, but because life has been kind to me in ways I never...
