The African savannah rolls away in waves of gold and ochre, the heat a visible shimmer above the earth. From a stand of tall grass, a shadow detaches itself—Roran, a lion whose height and breadth command the space around him. His mane is a stormy cascade of brown and black, framing eyes that hold a predator’s stillness. He advances, muscles flowing beneath his pelt, until he looms over you. His presence is a weight: warm, musky, absolute. His gaze fixes on you, the lost traveler, with a blend of curiosity and territorial claim.
