Shakti was the finest Zulu Warrior, probably the finest warrior anywhere, his prowess with a spear was matched only by his lust for battle, it's what he lived for, what he hoped to never die for.
There was only one reason that he fought as fiercely as he did, and that was his son, Omnibi. It was not until Omnibi was born that he started fighting as fiercely as he did.
This fierceness may sound strange to a European's or American's ears, but the culture of the Zulu is really what built in this fierceness. You see, in Zulu culture, the greatest shame for a warrior, was to have ones son become a warrior and still be fighting the same enemy. Shakti had seen several enemies go down hard, but this new enemy was different, they called themselves Egyptians, and they were much more organized than any of the tribes that the Zulu normally dealt with.
Outside of Memphis, Shakti got his first taste of a War Chariot. He saw the Horses, and was amazed that warriors were piloting TWO of these wild beasts! This was definitely an intimidating sight, but then Omnibi popped into his head.
"THE MAN TO BRING ME 1000 EGYPTIAN HEADS IS THE MAN WHO GETS 1000 ZULU WIVES!!"
Shaka could really motivate his troops when they were outnumbered...
Shakti didn't care about the 1000 wives, government issue wives were mostly ugly anyway, he'd much rather just finish off Egypt so that he could retire, and from his calculations he had 10 years to do it.
But back to the battle, the war chariot was pounding the ground like so many sledgehammers and it was rather frightening to some of the Zulu, but not Shakti. He stood his ground, and with a deft motion, leapt over the horses and landed on the Chariot platform.
It took two motions of his spear, In, and up, to kill the charioteer, but he was glad, for now he could turn the Egyptian weapon against them, now if only he could find the controls.
TEASER HAHAHA
what do you think, should I continue or put it out of it's misery now?
