Meet ๐๐ฑ๐ธ๐ฎ๐ท๐ฒ๐ , the young, newly crowned Queen of the Pride.
Some would say it was fate that
๊งMirage๊ง and ๐๐ฑ๐ธ๐ฎ๐ท๐ฒ๐ met, some would call it coincidence and others would say it was a narrowly averted disaster that could have been the downfall of the pride.
The sky was ablaze when ๊งMirage๊ง met the young lioness for the first time. For her part, it was love at first sight - something that could not exactly be said of ๐๐ฑ๐ธ๐ฎ๐ท๐ฒ๐. The young lioness didn't exactly jump at ๊งMirage๊ง's advances, rather the opposite. So the young queen resorted to her last resort - bribery. With the help of a few gold beetles, she finally convinced the young lioness to follow her to her pride and be examined by the healers - after all, her back, paws and tail were on fire! Perplexed, the young ๐๐ฑ๐ธ๐ฎ๐ท๐ฒ๐ looked at her until she burst out laughing. ๊งMirage๊ง didn't understand anything until ๐๐ฑ๐ธ๐ฎ๐ท๐ฒ๐ calmed down and explained that the fire couldn't harm her. She had already been born with it and it had also been the reason why she had been chased off by her previous pride. A look of sadness came over the young lioness's face and ๊งMirage๊ง quickly tried to cheer her up. "No one will chase you away here. I promise," she assured the young lioness and gently rubbed her head against hers. Somewhat reluctantly, ๐๐ฑ๐ธ๐ฎ๐ท๐ฒ๐ nodded and returned ๊งMirage๊ง's tender gesture.
When the two arrived at the pride, the next surprise followed immediately. ๊งMirage๊ง entered the den and immediately all attention was focused on the two lionesses. A little overwhelmed, ๐๐ฑ๐ธ๐ฎ๐ท๐ฒ๐ hid behind the larger lioness. She stood proudly in front of her pride. "Okay everyone. This is..." She faltered, then turned to ๐๐ฑ๐ธ๐ฎ๐ท๐ฒ๐ with a wry smile. "Um... what's your name anyway?" ๐๐ฑ๐ธ๐ฎ๐ท๐ฒ๐ couldn't suppress a slight smile. "๐๐ฑ๐ธ๐ฎ๐ท๐ฒ๐ ", she replied and ๊งMirage๊ง turned back to the surrounding lionesses and lions. "This is ๐๐ฑ๐ธ๐ฎ๐ท๐ฒ๐. She's part of the pride from today and..." Again the queen hesitated before turning to ๐๐ฑ๐ธ๐ฎ๐ท๐ฒ๐ again, an almost shy and embarrassed expression on her face. "and... my queen...?" she asked shyly. ๐๐ฑ๐ธ๐ฎ๐ท๐ฒ๐ couldn't believe her ears. But only seconds later, she pressed her forehead to ๊งMirage๊ง's and nodded. This huge, fearsome and yet so gentle and kind lioness was the first to accept her. "Yes." she said softly and from then on was ๊งMirage๊ง's queen.
