Chevy | He/They

It was a warm summer afternoon when Queen Void set out, heading to the trade post where others lands meet. The trade center was busy, bustling with other lions trading beetles for food, interesting decor, and even other lions swapping prides and saying their goodbyes as they head to their new homes. Void browsed the stalls up and down, checking the items for trade and reading about lions and lionesses seeking new homes. Suddenly she pauses, a beautiful feline catching her eye. It looked like a lion, almost… there was a mane and their general size was about the same as one, but something about them was unfamiliar. His face seemed older, as if he’d seen many moons more than the Queen herself had.

A king sitting near by notices and approaches Voidfang.
“Hello friend!” He smiles in greeting. “I see you have your eye on Chevy here, he’s beautiful hmm?” He twitches his whiskers with a grin.

Chevy rolls his eyes and approaches. “Hello.” He dips his head. “I’m looking to find a new pride.”

“All I ask if a few gold beetles in return.” The king nods. “Chevy is an amazing hunter. It’s a shame to see him go but I understand wanting to travel.” He looks at the strange lion with a smile, his eyes warm and caring towards him.

Void agrees, pays the fee and together she and Chevy walk back to meet the rest of the pride. Void learns that Chevy is a Tigon, though not first gen, so where in her lineage a lion and tiger fell in love and the hybrid was the result. He notes briefl on Void’s appearance being similar to a leopon, though he could tell differences. Void finds their brief chatter calming, though the tigon doesn’t seem upbeat, she doesn’t mind his slightly-cold/blunt nature.

Chevy seems to fit right in with the rest of the pride, settling in to live out his final years.
