Guardian of Theluji, the Wonder On Four Paws

"Snow dressed in black"

═════════════════════════════════════════

Long ago, in the frozen lands where snow never melted and silence ruled the night, wandered a lone lion named Theluji - a name whispered to mean "snow" in the old tongue. His fur was pale as winter’s breath, his eyes, on the other hand, they looked like a flame that had just been lit. He traveled alone, a shadow among glaciers, watching the world in silence.

He came upon a pride ruled by a lion known as Tiger Eye, a tyrant cloaked in golden lies. Tiger Eye brought pain and fear to his pride, turning kin against kin, feeding only the strongest and leaving the weak to wither. Theluji watched from the blizzards, unseen but listening. He decided to enter the pride and gain the king's trust and become the heir - and he succeeded.

When the time came, Theluji did not strike in rage, but with purpose. He cloaked himself in black - cloth taken from human lands - and became a phantom of the cold. In the night, he was a shadow. In the snow, a ghost. The pride awoke to silence one morning, and Tiger Eye was gone.

Theluji took the throne, not as a ruler, but as a guardian. He vowed never to become what Tiger Eye was. From that day, he was known only as Guardian of Theluji - protector of the snow, and of those who live within it.

Under his watch, the pride thrived, and tales of a white lion in black wrappings, half-snow, half-shadow, spread across the lands.

(Tiger Eye's name is originally Olho de Tigre, but i changed to english bc his og name is horrible)
