One story about this ruler says that he sent an embassy of his most beautiful wives to a neighboring state, but when his chief queen came back pregnant, he declared war on the presumed culprit, their king Bosinante. After emerging victorious, he dug up the king's dead body, stripped its flesh, fed it to serpents, and brought the skull and thighbones home as trophies for his palace. After entering into an alliance with his cousin Bautin, he waged the aforementioned war on the Denkyira state. He later died fighting against the Akim peoples, who had previously aided the Denkyira. But, before that, he set up a government in his capital Coomassie, and worked with a fetish priest named Okomfo Anokye to call down from heaven ► the Golden stool.
