When one of them is starving because there is a famine, the other offers help in return for eating his friend's infant. In revenge, the Nzambi who has lost his child kills the other's family by burning them down in a house. Some villagers are gathered to listen to the story and occasionally comment.

- Description : Nze Paul is the chief of Ngolo village. His mother is Nandtoungou and his wife Ngolo Dorothée. They have three children: Ada, Apato, and Aminu. Nze often stays in the village as a guardian when the others are away on a hunting trip or a funeral in another village. The title as chief of the village is a Bulu invention and does not reflect necessarily the egalitarian structures in Gyeli society.
