Chapter 1:

Explosions...

All you would see looking down on the continent of Chima was explosions...

The lush-green forests turning into raging flame filled hells...

The smell of burning flesh...

Covering your face with your hands to protect yourself from the intense heat... nearly 1400 degrees celsius in temperature...

Every living thing in Chima was on fire...

The oxygen rapidly being consumed meant that any remaining life would suffocate...

The lion temple was no more than a deep-giant smoldering crater filled with molten debris...

Every lion in sight having been instantly vaporized...

The crocodile swamp was not any safer...

The intense heat vaporized all of the water in the swamp, so even if you swam to the bottom floor of the swamp, you would eventually begin to suffocate, which means you would have to swim back up through the already rapidly evaporting waters...

...only to char in the heat as you tried to get one final breath of oxygen...
...but you couldn't even do that...

The raging fires had already consumed all of the oxygen...

...you would only see hundreds of burning trees...

... an atmosphere of pitch blackness... filled with smoke...

and then nothing...

There was absolutely no chance of survival in this hell...

Every other tribe in Chima was already dead...

A massive cloud of deadly gas expanded over Chima during the night before...

The gorillas passed quietly in their sleep... how lucky for them...

The Rhinos, Ravens, Beavers, Bears, and Wolves slowly choked to death inside the cloud...

Those poor little things...

They choked their little lungs out...

Literally...

The gas took only 30 - 60 seconds to kill...

It also dissolved any tissues it touched once inside the victim...

They would choke first, and while they choked, the gas would slowly shut down their nervous systems...

They would become paralyzed... fall to the ground... still choking... coughing up blood and bits of flesh... and not even being able to move a finger as it happened...

Then it would all go black...

And the poor eagles... they went the worst way...

The poor little birds...

A shower of meteors rained down directly onto their spire...

Every explosion killing at least 8 eagles at a time...

Eris went just like every other bird on that spire...

Boom...

Splatter...

Eventually, the entire spire collapsed as the spire's stability decreased with each explosion...

And the giant crater where the lion temple was?

The meteor showers?

The gas clouds?

The massive deaths and firestorms?

I'll tell you how this all came to be...

In the next chapter...
