BB: The Purple Lady part 1

"The Purple Lady" is the second story in the Blackberry Blue collection of short stories by Jamila Gavin.
In this tale, Abu is willed to find his long lost sister but has to endure physical and emotion turmoil to get to the end of his quest. He also has the dilemma of wondering who he should really trust on his journey and if those people guiding him have other ulterior motives.
This story is cut up into 3 parts, so today's questions are rather more vague as I don't want to give away too much about what is to come in the rest of the story... Enjoy !
