UZibane lona kwakuyindoda yakhona kwaNgcobo okwakuthi nxa kukhulunywa nayo kumbe itshelwa ukuthi yeanzeni ivele izibe nje. Kuthe emveni kokuba isiganiwe, kwathiwa mayihambe iyokwakha umuzi wakwaZibane ngoba iyazibana. Nebala wawakha ke lowo muzi wathi kukwaZibane. Kwabe sekuchuma igama likaZibane okwagcina ngokuthi nozalo lwakhe lwaziwe kanjalo.
UZibane simthola esakhe KwaDlangezwa, eMpangeni namanje okuyilapho besatholakala bebaningi khona abalesi sibongo. UZibane wazala uMatshana, yena wazala uSobhejiye, ozale uMalambule, uMthiya, uMbuzikazi noMshingane. UMalambule yena yena wakha umuzi waseDangweni lapho sekuyidolobha namuhla.
Ithuna lakhe lilaphaya eNtuze, eningizimu yaseMpangeni. ElikaMatshana liseMatshana (entshonalanga yeMpangeni), kweseNkosi Khulumangifile Zungu, KwaMadlebe.

Emeni kokubuya kweSilo phesheya, uMalambule wabuyela kwelakubo KwaDlangezwa. Kuthe esegula waya kwaMthethwa. Kuthe eselapho kwaMthethwa, uPhalana kaMdinwa wakwaMkhwanazi waya eMgungundlomvu wayotshela abengwadi (abelungu) ukuthi uMalambule usekhotheme. Abengwadi babe sebebeka yena uPhalana ukuba yinkosi yaleyo ndawo.
Kuthe uMalambule esebuyawathola uPhalana nguyena oseyinkosi. Wathi makayekwe umlamu wakhe aqhubeke nokuphatha. Phela uMalambule wabe eganwe khona kwaMkhwanazi. Ubukhosi basuka kanjalo endlini enkulu bavuka endlini encane kaMthiya kaSobhejiye kaMatshana. Basuka -ke lapho bayokwakha laphaya eMthunzini , bedlulela futhi naseShowe bafike bakha, kwavuka umuzi waseDangweni.
