These lands are where lions come to be free from the tyranny of man. Their familes are being hunted and killed for their skins, their claws, and for trophies. In the direct center of Africa, lies the Onyejekwe Wildlife Reserve. Poachers and Hunters are not allowed to hunt in these parts. Wild lions find sanctuary, raise up their prides, control land, and fight for territory expansion.
From the start of Onyejekwe Reserve, only one lion pride was formed. Dakarai was formed by King Akuma. Will you choose the life of a family, or will you reside all alone and wander the savannah?

< TBD > Enjoy the first update ^^
The darkness fell over the lands, sweeping them into the abyss. Everything as dark, except for the brilliant stars and the bright moon. It was in this way that Khan loved to travel. The wet season had been plentiful to the lands, and the rivers rushed with life. Everything seemed to be at peace. As he moved, his paws shook the ground around him. His tail hung gently behind his form, and his mane blew gently in the wind. His emerald eyes gleamed through the darkness, staring over the lands. Where was he to go? What was he to do? He was quick on his paws now, racing through the tall grasses and the large rocks that laid randomly around the grounds. He was careful not to rush into them or anger anything around him. Finally he stopped moving. He could smell the scent of the pride before him. He shook his mane gently from side to side, making it look fuller than when he was running. He knew it was late and the likely-hood of the King being pleased to see a guest at this hour was highly unlikely. So he would wait here for a while, knowing that he needed to find the right words before he just presented himself. He cleared his throat, and began to think of the words. "Hello sir..."No, that's not it..."Greetings sir..." He tried many things over and over, but nothing sounded right. "I would like to join your pride... I'm strong and intelligent, and ... damn..." He dropped himself to the floor and laid on the ground. He rolled onto his side, and stared up at the den.
Nothing can stop you
when you know what you want, and you can take what you need.
The night was beautiful, perfect almost. There was a lull in the rain. It had stopped for a few hours now, even though the grounds were covered in it. What once was hard dirt, was now mud and muck. She hated how it stuck to her paws, so finding harder grounds to walk on would be best. She moved carefully until she found the cover of a tree. As she moved, she made sure not to do anything too crazy. She laid down, but not too far ahead of her, she saw a lion. He was a male and she was worried he was in a coalition. She sniffed around for other signs of more males. Luckily there were none. She slowly inched across the floor on her belly, using his paws to move her forwards carefully. Hey blue orbs kept onto the lion. She did not want to startle him or show that she was a danger to his safety. She made her way slowly, and when she approached him, she spoke softly. "Excuse me, are you apart of the pride? I wish to join it as well."
Sleep evaded the lion once again. Was this going to be a continuous thing? He was unsure. But he knew that he needed to do something to tire himself out. If he spent some energy, maybe he could get his restless bones to finally accept rest. He walked out of the den and down the path he always took. He jumped down to the base of the rock and carefully landed on all fours. He walked from the grounds and headed towards the watering hole. It had been where he had wandered to several times. But instead of making it to his destination, his eyes caught the sight of two creatures. He could tell they were lions, and he was intrigued. Any lion that made it to his pride was going to be questioned, of course. He turned his body and started heading over to them. He held his head up high and shook his mane out to be larger than normal. He was billowing with pride and glory. Upon approach of the visitors, he spoke to them in a calm tone. "Greetings... I am Akuma and this is Dakarai. Are you seeking acceptance?" He looked to the male first, wondering if he was trying to sleep or something. He also looked to the female who was laying close to the ground. It was an odd way to find a female, but perhaps this was how she attacked others? "If you are looking for trouble, I can promise you that you will find it here. But if you are seeking a home, you can also find that here. It all depends on what the both you decide you wish to do."

He smelled the female before he saw her. He lifted his head back to see her. Emerald eyes look at the female, trying to guess who she was. He did not know her, and she was not from his family. His head was still on the ground, too lazy to move it for the likes of a female. The lioness came close to him, and in such a strange way. Whatever. He listened to her speak and nodded his head slightly. "I am seeking acceptance, no I am not of the pride. You don't really like to use your other senses do you?" He asked her as he looked over her form. He could tell she was fit and a smaller lioness, but he was not one to judge too harshly. "Do you know who the...." He was going to ask when the King himself appeared out of the darkness. He had his attention on the female and was not ready to see such a sight, not like this. His head lifted off the ground and he quickly scrambled to his paws. "King Akuma, I wish to join your pride. I can tell by the scents you already have a few males here, and I wish to work beside them to keep you safe. I don't know the names you have for ranks, but I would prefer to work closely with you. Someday I wish to lead a pride of my own, and who better to learn from than the King himself?" He sat up straight, showing that he was strong and muscular. He would be the best lion on the job. His eyes peered over the king, looking at every feature. He seemed to be rather kind or at least kind before you piss him off.

The first male seemed to be an asshole. He was rather rude with his words to her. No she had not smelled that he was not apart of the pride. She wasn't thinking about that. Honestly, she just wanted to find a family again. "You don't have to be snarky, ya know..." She quickly sat up as the King approached them. Her tail wrapped itself around her body. Her ears flattened against her head and she bowed her head to Akuma. "King... I do not wish for any trouble. I wish to join your pride, but I am not your average lioness. I would rather spend my days watching over the young, than to go hunting. If you will have me sir, I will keep your cubs from any harm, as well as the rest that may live in the pride." She was respectful to him, as he was the one who would decide her fate. "I haven't been in a family for a long time, but I am ready to try again... please?"
