The Lion Girl of the Merged Realm
Author's Note: Hi, this is my very first fan fiction posting. Special thanks to my co-writer, UltraKaiFan, for his help.
Prologue
In the Realm of the Wyldness, within the region of Chima was a Royal Lion named Lagravis. Today was the worst day of his life. His own brother, Lavertus, was banished for trying to steal their land's most sacred resource, Chi. He was currently walking through the jungle, hoping that it would distract him.
Lagravis: (Sigh) Why did you do it, brother? Why steal Chi knowing the consequnces?
Suddenly, Lagravis' thoughts were interrupted by a flash of light not too far from where he was.
Lagravis: What's this?!
Drawing his blade, Lagravis raced towards the site. Upon arriving, he found a basket next to a white and gold katana & two Kukri Knives. Stabbing his sword into the dirt, Lagravis slowly approached the basket. Removing the blanket, Lagravis saw an infant girl sleeping, but not of any creature he had seen. She looked almost like a gorilla, but not even a patch of fur on her.
Lagravis: Where did you come from, Little One?
Lagravis looked around for a note or anything that resembled a message or a clue as to where she came from but found nothing. Not even the weapons held any hidden message.
Lagravis: I don't see any trace as to where you come from. You must be... An orphan.
Gently, Lagravis picked up the basket. As he gathered the weapons, the girl woke up. Instead of crying or screaming, she started to giggle. Lagravis saw the child awake and smiled.
Lagravis: Don't worry. I'll make sure you're well taken care of. Maybe someday we'll discover where you came from.
The baby girl cooed happily, as if she could sense Lagravis' kind heart. Lagravis wasted no time in taking the baby girl to the Lion Palace. There, Lagravis introduced the girl to his cub child, Laval.
Lagravis: I shall name you... Lucilia.
Later that night, in a plane separate from any of the 16 Realms, the Seven Source Dragons conversed on what they had done.
Motion Dragon: And so, our plan begins.
Strength Dragon: (Scoffing) This is absurd! That child is nothing!
Energy Dragon: That is for fate to decide. If what we've seen does happen, we will need a champion.
Life Dragon: Time will tell.
Motion Dragon: She will need allies. Friends to fight with her.
Energy Dragon: We cannot intervene in mortal affairs... But we may be able to manipulate what will happen.
The Source Dragons designed shadows of figures as they discussed the fate of Lucilia.
