Synopsis

Plot

You are a young Masai warrior who is looking forward to his initiation into manhood. You have just finished watching the initiation of another group of men when Bekenga, a young cow herder, runs into the congregation to announce that the whole herd of cattle has been stolen. One of the herders is wounded and unconscious in the scorching sun and the other is missing.

This is a serious matter. Cattle theft is bad enough, but kidnapping is unforgivable.

You are one of the warriors selected to find the herd and the missing herder. You have been tracking them for 12 hours and are desperate to find something soon.
