Libala

~Introduction dialogue~

"Hey! Who's that?! There's some kind of freak ogling us!" One of the pale, red-eyed lionesses suddenly screamed as soon as she saw you walking past the basking spot she and her sisters had claimed. They all rose up, smelling almost sick because of how much fermented marula fruit they'd been eating.

"Go away, you bunny chaser!" shouted another one. "We're not up for sale! We're not giving you no cubs! Take your offers and stick it up yours!"

"Yeah! Fuck you!" The one with a mane visible yelled louder than any of them. All of a sudden, this group of lionesses are pelting you with fruit, dried shit and cracked skulls! You quickly haul ass out of there, stunned at the utter rudeness of those icy bitches. But maybe there was something else...they had the same mannerisms of scared little girls that don't have anyone to protect them. Maybe they've been told to act that way, or maybe they just know that even if their king would help, it wouldn't hurt to defend themselves.

Even if you come back, all of them are like this. They don't want anything to do with you; you're a guest, not a member of this pride, but even so, their manners are horrid. The king must be either incredibly lazy to let this pass...or maybe he's actually laughing at all of this like it's some kind of sick joke.

The second Achromia lioness bought by Ghadhabu, "Libala" is the Xhosa word for forget. Libala was particularly interesting because not only was she an achromia lioness, but her mane and mannerisms were more like those of a male instead. Her appearance and behavior was such a cause for debate among the rest of the pride that the king actually hid her within the icy cavern of a glacier to avoid letting her face discrimination. There were whispers that said, since she was destined to be a steady mate of Ghadhabu, he must have hidden her away for breeding in secret so as to protect the king's reputation personally. The black primal smashed such rumors when he actually took Libala outside to mate instead, always up to challenge anyone who had a problem with it. Naturally, this caused great embarrassment for her to see her king put her on the spot in such an intimate arena.
