I searched for the full passage, and it really caught my attention. Take a look:
[quote]NOW this is the law of the jungle, as old and as true as the sky,
And the wolf that shall keep it may prosper, but the wolf that shall break it must die.
As the creeper that girdles the tree trunk, the law runneth forward and back;
For the strength of the pack is the wolf, and the strength of the wolf is the pack.
Wash daily from nose tip to tail tip; drink deeply, but never too deep;
And remember the night is for hunting and forget not the day is for sleep.
The jackal may follow the tiger, but, cub, when thy whiskers are grown,
Remember the wolf is a hunter—go forth and get food of thy own.
Keep peace with the lords of the jungle, the tiger, the panther, the bear;
And trouble not Hathi the Silent, and mock not the boar in his lair.
When pack meets with pack in the jungle, and neither will go from the trail,
Lie down till the leaders have spoken; it may be fair words shall prevail.
When ye fight with a wolf of the pack ye must fight him alone and afar,
Lest others take part in the quarrel and the pack is diminished by war.[/quote]
I have a feeling this perfectly summarizes the experience we're about to dive into. What do you think?

Thanks for the chapter bit!!! It's great to see (and think) a game experience go BEYOND the simple imagery of the game itself. I wonder if any teachers have thought to use this to help their students go beyond "the game". I've used games for data collection, but things like this could help it go in yet another direction!
