The Game

Male Bouda are not usually interested in the art of war at all.  Generally physically smaller and less aggressive than females, they tend to prefer domestic pursuits.  Ngumu, however, is "girlish" that way, and his aggressive corva, Alusia, tends to encourage his competitive nature.  Fisi is happy to teach him the rules and strategy of a game of Hounds and Jackals, while Zingela (the clan Sangoma) and some un-named pups with their pet aardwolf look on.
