It was a jungle. The planet was a jungle. Low cities filled with live, were in the distance. It was an odd planet. Different from most. It was jungles and cities. Primitive cities, made of rock and stone. Wood and vines. Rivers wove through the planet like veins in a body. The trees rose high, above the cities. The cities took a precaution, a large circular field lay around the cities. They were vast with space, as large as the cities themselves.
In side the cities there dwelled being. Large, with hair flowing off their bodies. They had an animal look to themselves. Covered in fur, large paws, fang like teeth. They called themselves Jiralhanae.
One such Jiralhanae was walking along his city. He was an older one. Silver white fur covered his body. The hair dissipated net the crown of his head, and then came back like a Mohawk. This meant something to them. He was a powerful leader.Another one of his kind was next to him. They were conversing.
"Tartarus, the time is coming. The Rampage is soon to begin," the Jiralhanae said to the one with a Mohawk. A sense of fear was in his voice.
The one called Tartarus looked at the one at his side. His Mohawk all but swaying in the wind. "Do not fret yourself brother. My rightful title as Chieftain will stay with me. None of the other Jiralhanae can possibly defeat me!" Tartarus said conceitedly.
"Tartarus, if you keep talking like that, you'll lose your title in a heart beat," the brother said to him.
"Tactar! I will rip your head off, even if you are my brother! Stop your insolent speech!" Tartarus yelled.
Tactar looked at him with fear. Tartarus, filled with rage walked off. He was heading for his Chieftain quarters. He sat in his wooden, leaf cushioned chair behind a wooden desk. A small red flag with three white streaks across it, was on his desk. He stared out a window in contemplation.
The Rampage is soon. I am at my peak. I will keep my title. No one can take it from me. I will dominate the Rampage. I have to. For my brother is not a military person. And this title is for my family alone! Tartarus thought. He put his head down on the desk, and slowly slipped into sleep.
