Samaree

Samaree has been a wanderer since her cubhood. She was abandoned by her previous pride and spent her youth frolicing underneath the Giving Tree. Minnaar came, and took her under his wing. Cinna was a patient psuedo mother to her, and looked after her. When she became adolescent the lionesses took them with her while hunting. Eventually, she became a skilled hunter. Ripping into flesh and snapping bone became an art she delighted in. Perhaps at times, too much. Later, when she became an adult, she would split apart from the group when hunting. Roxanne, while her friend, was too mushy while hunting. She liked to hunt only what she needed. She didn't see the sport in the bloodshed, not like Samaree. It was on such a solo hunting trip that she met the Tsavo stranger that would sire her cubs, Chimi and Wax Moon.

You pass by Samaree lurking in the shadows. She narrows her eyes as she watches you walk by. You are unsure if she is showing contentment or contempt, but it unsettles you.
