The Journey of Wise The Author

Wise Lucky Mdhlovu was born in 2001 July 22 at Pretoria B3, the day that he was born it was very clear that he'd become a man of his words through his actions, the story begins from where he started to love art and where his talent was initiated.In
2015, I was a friend of Polite, well not everything went good for me. I loved art, and I always tried to find my true nature, art. But, it felt very impossible, the art that I loved and tried to possess is illustrating, but I wasn't good at it.

Then Polite created a group of singing, it was I, her and Jane. There reason why the group wasn't successful is that, we weren't able to find a studio, we were good at singing, Jane on the first part, Polite was doing the mouth-beat and I was doing bass. Everything was a taboo! I knew that if I can sing and act there's more I can do, but what's there that I can do? It took lot of time to realize that I do have a great talent.

In 2016, when I was in grade 10, there is a beautiful lady who came to Freddy Sithole to learn at the same class with me, the truth maybe told I was in love her. There was one easiest tough thing that I couldn't do and that was telling her how I felt about her, then I got an idea of becoming her friend and I did. I was blooming with a red flower of love unto her. Then I got an idea of that if I can't tell her,I can make something beautiful for her, but what can I do? Out of beautiful all things that a person can do in this world I chose art, art is beautiful. But, I can't sing for her, reason I have no studio, can't draw for her reason I'm terrible at drawing. But, what if I write something, a letter will be straight and forward, and I don't want that to happen.

In that case, I'll write a story. I wasn't sure if I can but I tried, that's where my true art,was initiated. It took me 2 weeks to write it, well, it wasn't a long story, it was a short story. I her the story after writing it and it was titled, “THE ADVENTURE OF WISE LUCKY”, I was very happy when she said that the story was good. I asked her if she could edit it, and she accepted. She took only one week to edit it, then she gave me the story after editing it, and it was titled, “THE ADVENTURE OF WISE AND RUTH”, because she's also there on the story. I read the story and realized that the talent she have it's not editing skill it's far beyond that, it's authoring talent because she added more parts, making the story to be more melancholy and with a great happy ending. Then, I wrote fantasy story, well I began it, and I asked Polite and Ruth to help me write it, they both accepted. It was titled, “THE POWER OF NWT (New World Team)”. I possessed water and Ruth possessed fire, I didn't like the idea of Polite,of her and Jane being evil, but well I had to accept to finish the story, too bad,we've lost the story. Ruth was NWT editor, I was author and Polite was author. Then in 2017, Ruth went back to her roots, the original place where she lived, and it's very far from where I live. When she left, she left me a massage, saying that she's leaving NWT. I was very heartbroken, and I didn't know what to do. I didn't even have a mind of a leadership.

In 2017, I started to write a story which I titled, '‘THE RISING”, and I also wrote a story with Polite, we titled it, “FROM DARKNESS TO LIGHT”, I was still writing “THE RISING” it's more like a novel which will become an anime story that's what I decided. Then on my ship, there are people who jumped out but Polite never did, she was always with me on my ship, it was like a captain and vice captain steering the ship. While I was writing “THE RISING”, I realized that "THE RISING" is not the story to be finished soon. So, I wrote “THE POWER OF NWT 2”, and Polite wrote “THE SPIDER WOMAN”, there was a teacher who said, we should let her see our stories when we finish them and, she will fix the mistakes.I'm very sadly happy for she fixed one mistake in our mind, and that is trusting people,this is the first and last mistake that I made. When she had a story after 3 days, I went to her and she told me that she lost the story, I couldn't believe it. It takes more than imagination to write a story, heart and mind are connected, love and hate. You even have to feel things that you don't really feel. Polite trust her too much and she thinks that the teacher lost the story as she says, but truth maybe told. I don't think she lost the story,but  there's no much I can do.

So, we went on like this to 2018, that's where I finished “THE RISING” which took only 3 books of 32 pages. I read it, I was very disappointed when I realize that there's no history, only 3 battles. It didn't deserve to be called an anime. I decided to make the one I wrote a summary and rewrite it as a new story but still titled “THE RISING”. In June, I asked Ruth to join the team even she's faraway, she accepted, and I was very happy. I thought of powers, nature manipulation, best eye powers, and I was like no Naruto, but well, I'll come up with something new, speed powers, physical powers, and spiritual powers. Then, I started to write “THE RISING”. On the way, I got illustrator Brilliant, who seem to be not serious about NWT, and editor Angel, who just left the group at 24 July 2018.

The members are:
Ruth as editor,
Wise as author,
Polite as author,
Thoman as illustrator,
Brilliant as illustrator.

I still believe that with a heart if fire no water can turn me off, with a heart of love no lust can seduce me. I still say art shines brighter than moon, even more faster than lighting and lights up the world than sun.


Being poor doesn't mean that your mind, strength and heart should poor.
