She lived a life of absolute poverty. Eating or sleeping in a safe place was a constant struggle. She lived as an outcast. To tell the truth, in Meroe, she gained the trust or the friendship of no one. People saw Gadise as cultivated, eager to read and learn when possible, and mastering writing, which she did for friends. She was strong, beautiful, and long lived. She was known to be lazy, barely waking up in the morning.
Gadise, 44 years old, thief, became the new leader of a new branch of the family.
Aged 55, Gadise decided to settle somewhere else. She packed a few possessions and departed for a new place. The travel was the occasion to do some merchandise dealing, and she made some business. The family settled in Meroe. At the same time, Gadise found a good luck charm.
