Fun fact this is my first original story so like...enjoy... In the heart of North Africa, the Zarafa Tribe thrives, living in harmony with nature and the wildlife around them. One fateful day, a boy named Kairo is born with a unique tattoo of a roaring dragon on his back, a mark believed to be from the gods. Raised as a commoner, Kairo soon discovers he possesses extraordinary powers, far beyond anyone else in his tribe. Kairo has a natural affinity for animals and the remarkable ability to transform into them. As he grows, he becomes the tribe's protector, using his powers to defend his people from various threats. He battles poachers who seek to exploit the tribe's resources, malevolent spirits that haunt the land, and even others with similar abilities who challenge his strength. Kairo's journey is one of self-discovery and heroism, as he learns to harness his powers and embrace his destiny. Along the way, he forms deep bonds with the tribe's elders, who mentor him, and with the animals he can transform into, who become his allies in the fight to protect his home.
