The Sun's Promise

Let's go back to before the beginning...

Before Mufasa, before the Pridelands were ruled by lions, in a distant land known as the Kingdom of the Sun, Ahadi and his brother Ukweli are both destined to become kings; however, to achieve this, one of them must leave their familiar home and set off on a journey to find a new land to rule. King Jua, the pride's stern and distant ruler, drives competition between two close siblings in order to decide which heir will take his throne, and which heir will need to make one for himself.

Friendships are forged and broken, romance blooms on the savanna, and of course, adventure ensues.

A rusty writer's desperate attempt to actually finish a story, get some critique, and improve their work before writing what they really want to write.
