TENDARI – THE STRONGEST

[On the banks of the Uzima River, bordering the Broken Savannah]

The river, once calm, was raging with fury. A family of giraffes was trapped on an island about to be swept away. By Kiros' lionesses. Without hesitation, Tendari shouted:

Tendari: — “Stand firm! I am your ground now!”

With his paws buried in the mud, he pushed a fallen log against the current, forming a living bridge. The roar of the waters was overcome by the brute strength of the lion that sustained life with its muscles and heart.

The earth shook with the advance of one of the albino lions controlled by one of Kiros' allies. The creature knocked down everything in its path, using its brute strength to make its way to the Pride Rock.

Tendari advanced alone, roaring firmly.

Tendari: — “If he wants to get through here… he’ll have to get through me first.”

As the lion raised its fangs, Tendari twisted his body and dug his claws into a rock, using his strength to leverage his own weight. With one thrust, he collided with the creature’s side and threw it off balance—the ground cracked beneath his feet, but he held firm.

He pushed the beast back into the ravine, eye to eye, muscles tensed as if they were made of stone.

Tendari: — “Strength isn’t in size… it’s in who you fight for.”

With one last push, the lion fell, uninjured but defeated. Tendari roared to the sky, and the warriors behind him regained hope.
