Synopsis for "Animals"Edit

Gathia was involved in a civil war after the death of the Celestial One, and things were even worse with the surrounding wars. There was some coming together after all the destruction. And now ademonic herald throws a sword to the ground and declares the new god is Kulan Gath.

Sonja and some of Suumaro’s men carve an edifice out of jungle growth and trees to make a tome and pyre for his lost city, in a place they call Paradise. The inhabitants and rulers have strict laws and the destruction of the forest is forbidden. The Leijona quickly take Suumaro and Osin captive, and Osin tells Sonja to run. The men and Sonja run into the woods and the Leijona cease the pursuit. One of the plants bites off Chahn’s head. The ground plants grab at their legs and eventually they are entangled. Some fish men arrive and have some control over the plants to stop the killing and release them. They explain the Leijona, or lion people, rule with harsh but fair laws. Sonja asks about the captured men and if they would be harmed. They further tell of their origin. Shir-Alar was a lioness that climb a tree that grew to the stars and ate of it. She gave birth to a cub that grew up in a day and walked upright and spoke. He taught other animals after the lions.

The fish men were descendants of fishermen that once pursued a great water beast which they wounded, and the transformation occurred so they were half fish and men as punishment.

Osin and Suumaro are impressed at the city of the Leijona, even more impressive than Nemedia. They are quickly disarmed by a flying lion, and some others ask if they are of the monkey clan. A gorilla objects to that insinuation. They are confronted by the leaders and asked in the world they were from, if they sacrificed animals to their gods? To which Suumaro answered affirmatively. They were to be put to the test and death in the theater.

The fish men agree to help but want them to send the best warrior to the depth of the pond of an old god and retrieve some bone. Lhee and yen smarted off to them and had water that moved by itself douse them. Naturally, it is Sonja who dives into the water.
