-the Tiger Grumbled and scratched his head- “Hhnnnghhh... a-alright... i accept my fate... i was too silly and jest to lead my tribe anyhow, sure i got it out of a dark age somewhere after the war... but i am an old man. Time is just too much to bear...” -he groaned, soon getting up to walk with Leanna and Lyrix. She leads them to a clearing in the jungle where a large town is in the process of being built. Tents are set up all around the under-construction buildings. Leanna then walks into a large tent in the middle. Leanna: "Sir, these people... washed ashore, for lack of a better term, on our island." The colonists' leader looks up from his desk for only a second. Lincoln: "A tiger and a fellow lion. Okay, give them food, clothes, and the like. They can stay here if they agree to our laws, otherwise send them on their way." Leanna: "Oh, um.. understood sir." She walks them out of the tent. Leanna: "Well, that's that." Lyrix: "Laws, even here, huh?" Leanna: "Our leader was exaggerating. They're more like rules and guidelines." Lyrix: "Heh, well good. Rules and guidelines I can follow." Leanna: "So you're staying?" Lyrix: "You bet! I've got no place with any of those pretentious tribes on the mainland. What about you, big, orange, and scary? You staying?" -Tristam looks very concerned for what they have said, but however, he refrains from talking and speaking out of turn.- -However...- Tristram: "I... Can't argue with it. If it was fate that brang me here, then so be it." -he nodded to Lyrix's words- "By the way, who are you, sir?"

Lyrix: "Well, uh, not anymore! That's in the past. I just want to live here in peace now, without the Lion Tribe coming after me." Leanna: "I understand. You can remain here as long as you follow the rules and don't cause trouble."

Leanna: "Me too. Anyway, the Gorilla Civil War followed immediately after, ending twenty-eight years ago when Gorbav overthrew the Gorilla King and established the Gorilla Republic. There was then peace for a time, with the Lions and others having a few skirmishes, but no big wars. This was until the Raven Civil War that started only three years ago, and ended recently with the rebirth of the Ravens' monarchy. In very recent times, there was the Chima Civil War between the inland tribes, who would then come together, for the most part, to form the Chima Alliance. This was followed by the Bat-Raven War, in which the Bats destroyed the Raven Tribe at the time to create temporary peace, and then the self-explanatory Chima Alliance-Crawler Empire War, the Crawler-Ice Hunter War, and the Fire-Ice War, which is when you Tigers reawakened, right?" Lyrix: "You sure know a lot about Chima's history, eh?" Leanna: "Well my father, Ludwig Luggington, was a historian. He was responsible for the vast library of history books in Corvidholme, which, for better or for worse, allowed the Outland tribes to learn much of the inlands' history back when they first evolved."

I always liked picking on that smug fool of a Leopard King. No way his cunning and intelligence can beat back our power and brutality in battle. We have massacred many lion battalions and regiments during our war with them... but with our power, they had managed to turn the tables against us and beat us back... i still have a bad taste in my mouth from that..” -he growled, still showing some resent to the Lions-

I have yet to get used to that feeling..." -he sighs in a bit of stress, feeling upset about this history thing.-

It's a bit estranged to try and keep the peace for ever in this world forever... as if the species and races of all these tribes were all scripted to not think of each other as allies."

The tribes can endure and fall throughout the coming centuries as they see fit. We simply established this neutral colony to be an island of peace for any and all Chimians, and we'll relocate even farther away from the mainland if any wars reach this island."

Well, I don't know if I'd go that far. When my pirates and I attacked the Lion Pastures, after you and the place's other original workers had left, Leanna, the Forgotten defended the Lions from us. They seemed to be dedicated to protecting the farm. But what do I know? Maybe the Forgotten had aimed to use the Lions. When just about any faction starts helping another in this world, it's usually for their own benefit, hah!"

The J-Meanwhile walking on the foggy coastlines, the golden-red powersuited scorpion man that was the ubiquitous Scordon Freeman, his fire wings in a constant state of ignition, making him a glowing light in the fog, but from the dense sea fog it could be barely seen.-
-The Scorpion Scientist and Forgotten leader was lonesomely wandering this seaside, his fire-tipped crowbar hanging lazily in his hand as he'd waltzed forward endlessy. he was deep in thought, something of that event that happened to him quite some time ago... that strange fisherman on that strange island that needed help from Freeman.That weird aquatic-like shape the old man had was a puzzling thought that could never leave his head, such a scientist of Freeman's statute couldn't figure out for the life of him what the old man was even was...-
-the Scorpion stopped walking and turned his head towards the vast seas and the horizon ahead, something was just drawing the silent scorpion to it, but what is it thats calling to him...? or was it someone...? He'd opened his ears to the ambiance of the sea and turned fully towards it, taking in all it had to offer, but maybe it was too much to offer...-
-Scordon could soon hear some sort of... gurgling laughter coming from in that direction, Freeman stepped towards the water in interest, wondering if anyone else could hear that laughter, nobody else was around except for him... at the foot of the water, he could soon see some lights glowing that looked like eyes, staring at him from the deep waters, Scordon never saw anything like this before in his life, so his first instinct is to whip out his crowbar and take a fighting pose, seeing if that creature underwater would do something...-
-It was a rather odd staring contest, like the creature from the deep was studying him , Scordon could see his eyes shift slightly and the creature was looking directly at Mt. Cavora, it's expression widened and soon those glowing eyes faded away quickly and a splash from where those eyes were in correlation to water surface, happened. It startled the scorpion and he pulled out a firearm from his vast on-person arsenal and began shooting at the water in self defense!-
