After a successful career as a government Minister, the Old Man breaks ranks with the Big Chiefs and is banished to a remote outpost in the Northern Frontier. In an emotional recollection to the Boy, the Old Man reveals how the Big Chiefs used the colonial labels of tall and short to set their subjects against one another. Although he is caught up in the genocide that ensues, the Old Man lives to tell his story, albeit with bitterness. The mind-boggling question to the Boy is why a people who fasted and feasted together, birthed and buried together, lived and reasoned together; intermarried and integrated, should suddenly rise against kith and kin. Yet, like the Old Man who had made it to the top, romanced with power and wealth and came tumbling down to the Pit, the young generation is only but searching for a spark of light to illuminate the inherent evil so evident in the hearts of men who believe in the right of might.
