Before that you have to picture what got the unwashed villages motivated enough to march toward the castle - perhaps the taxes were too high, perhaps they were given too much cake.
Shaka: How do you catch a monkey?
Lt. Francis Farewell: Well, a gourd is used... with a narrow neck. Bait is dropped into the gourd: a piece of fruit, or - or something shiny. The monkey puts his hand into the gourd to get the bait, and then he's trapped... because he can't get his fist out.
Shaka: Once he realizes he's trapped, why doesn't the monkey let go of the bait?
Lt. Francis Farewell: Because his greed makes him blind.
Shaka: And what is he greedy for?
Lt. Francis Farewell: What he thinks he cannot have.
Shaka: And now - What new bait have you brought for this monkey? Something shiny? Like the freshness of youth? Or lost love?
