Things Fall Apart: Chapter 15

During the second year of Okonkwo's exile, he was brought news that the village of Abame had been destroyed. This destruction was due to their killing a white man who had visited them. These villagers displayed a great deal of intimidation towards the white man, which shows that even though they are warring tribes, they still fear many things. I also found it quite odd that they seemed to ignore the warnings of their oracle. She said trouble would came, yet they didn't sound very prepared. This village seemed to be different than the one Okonkwo came from. They were not exactly the most religious or ferrocious of the tribes.
