Elaine

Elaine was a mysterious lioness who had appeared wandering the territory of Feekings pride one day and refused to leave. It was as if she was called here by something and knew she was needed for something.

She worshipped the Silent God in a different way to most Feeking pride lions and kept her practices to herself, as much as the pride were accepting they were wary of her and were glad she kept to herself.

She had 3 gorgeous cubs, and didn't want anything to do with them. The other lionesses in the pride happily took them off her paws raising them in a loving way. Elaine was greatful for that. She just didn't have time for mewling children. Her work required attention constantly.

The night of the full moon had arrived, He would be able to see all that belonged to him and it was a big night for Elaine. She had carefully procured bones and skulls from animals of varying sizes and fashioned them into a prayer circle. She hoped the remains of these forsaken animals would have energy she could use.

She sat in the centre of the petrifying circle and prayed frantically. Wishing for a sign, an idea, a blessing. This ritual was completed by her every month, it was important, needed. And in the centre of a pride that worshipped the Sielnt God she could be seen easily by his open eye.

It was these nights that she would behold the future, or at least snippets of it, her God was wise and could tell her much of what was to come. She was grateful for that. But tonight all she could see was horror. A single tear rolled down her cheek at the fortold loss of Feeking 1.
