I always thought of "Shaka, when the walls fell," as indicating a state of shock, disbelief, or otherwise not understanding what you're witnessing, more so than failure.

Honestly I love interpreting Tamarian meme-speak...

Shaka is a place, right? So the city was destroyed, or otherwise taken over and no longer part of the prior culture’s territory. Gone.

That’s my take, anyway.

I thought it was a person, witnessing the fall of his city.

Shaka is implied to be a person.
