Ngena ngoGabrielle.
Ithemba lebard. Isityalo phezulu icon. Namathela kwi-sai master.
UGabrielle uqala uthotho kulungelelwaniso oluchasene neXena. Ulungile, yonke indlela, kwaye uziva ethintekile kwidolophu yakowabo kwaye ufuna i-adventure kwindawo ebanzi enkulu kwindawo ethile kunye nomfazi waseAmazon. Ndiyathetha… andithi sonke?
Ngelixa indima ayidlalayo kolu luhlu ingumntu okhwaza kwaye ancede uXena alwe nobumnyama bexesha lakhe elidlulileyo, uGabrielle kufuneka ajongane nokungahambi ngokwakhe. Njengoko eguquka ukusuka kwintombazana encinci edolophini ukuya kumlingane ohamba naye, ukuya kwiKumkanikazi yamaAmazons, uGabrielle uzama ukukwenza ngaphandle kokubulala-ngaphandle kokufuna ukwenza ingozi. Oku kuvavanywa kaninzi, ngakumbi ngeCallisto, ukuze xa uGabrielle ekugqibeleni ebulala, ayisiyomzuzwana nje oqhelekileyo. Yindawo eze emva kweminyaka yokulwa ukuba ungenzi njalo. UGabrielle noXena bahlala ixesha elide kwaye banembonakalo entle kuba bobabini kuhambo lwabalinganiswa ukuze babe ngabona banakho kwihlabathi elimnyama.
Xena ayizange ivumele abalinganiswa bayo babekhona kuphela kwii-archetypes-nokuba ngamagorha abo okanye abenzi bobubi njengoCallisto okanye uAres.
Ngaphezulu kwayo nantoni na, eyona nto ndiyikhumbulayo ngokubukela Xena wayeyibukele nomama. Wayenomdla naye, kwaye ngeentsuku zokuhlamba, sasiza kuba kunye imini yonke sibukele Xena . Ndikhumbula ukuba sobabini sasibambeke kakhulu kumdlalo ukuze siqwalasele iinwele zam-iindlela awayebuthanda ngazo uburhalarhume nokuziphatha kukaXena, indlela awayengazange abonakale ephawula ngayo kubudlelwane obusondeleyo phakathi kukaXena noGabrielle ngendlela engeyiyo. Ezo zezinye zeenkumbulo ezandenza ndaziva ndikhuselekile ukuphuma kumama kwiminyaka emininzi kamva. Nangoku, ndizakumqhula ukuba ebenoxanduva lokuvuka kwam ngokwesini ngenxa yazo zonke Xena sabukela.
Abantu abaninzi abakhulayo banokujonga kubo Xena njengenxalenye yenkqubo yabo kwaye bakhele kwisiseko sayo semixholo engezantsi ukuya kuphononongo olucacileyo kwiihlaya nakwamanye amajelo eendaba. Xena ayisiyomboniso ugqibeleleyo xa kufikwa kwiintsomi, imbali, kunye nokuqhubeka, kodwa kulungile. Ndize ku Xena ngendlela ebuza ngayo imibuzo enzima yokuziphatha, kubafazi abangalunganga, ubudlelwane phakathi kukaXena noGabrielle, kwaye okona kubaluleke kakhulu, kukoyika iNkosazana eyiQhawe eyandifundisa ukuba amandla, ubuhle, ubumnyama, ukukhanya, ubungqingili, nobubele inokubakho ngaphakathi komntu omnye.
