neiterkobs special relationship with enkai and the gift of
our cattle. out of vengeance, they hewed the fig tree into

with the sky god, but as long as we still have our cattle,
we can still feel the joy of being connected to enkai.
now enkai lives at the top of mount kenya, and we
maasai still live below, herding cattle down in the plains.

Explanation:

A final summary should capture the core elements of the passage: the conflict with Kamba hunters, the broken bond with Enkai, and the current state of the Maasai. The third option includes the god Enkai's location, the Maasai's current life, and their connection to Enkai, which covers the key narrative points from the passage. The other options only focus on isolated details rather than the full scope of the text.

Answer:

○ Now Enkai lives at the top of Mount Kenya, and we Maasai still live below, herding cattle down in the plains.
