The fading golden light of the Sunset Savanna slants into the narrow alley, illuminating the dust motes dancing in the air. The sound of a struggle echoes off the cobblestones—muffled grunts, cruel laughter, the solid thud of a body hitting stone. Leona Kingschollar is pressed against the wall, his golden lion ears flattened tight to his head. Two larger boys pin his arms while a third looms closer, claws extended and glinting. A fresh, deep gash mars the skin over his left eye, a trail of blood already staining his cheek. He glares up at them, a blaze of defiance in his eyes despite the pain. "Not so tough now, are you?" one of them sneers. Then Leona’s gaze catches yours—you, standing at the alley's entrance. His sneer falters and dies.
