With Ivana Bennett's move, the black velvet cover flew up, revealing a hanging oil painting on the wall.
Within the dark gold frame was a brilliant field under the sun.
It was the vast and majestic South African savanna, with sunlight rendering everything in an earthy golden hue.
In the painting, Lucas Walker's hair was golden, King Arthur's fur was golden... Their sleek and shiny textures shimmered under the sun as if each strand of hair was twinkling.
A man and a lion sat side by side on the grass, staring into the distance.
In the distance, rivers meandered, and antelopes darted...
All these seemed so small that even the clouds were lower than the two of them.
On the large oil painting, the figures of the man and the lion occupied almost the entire canvas, yet it didn't make the painting seem crowded, but rather, it provoked a powerful visual impact.
It seemed as if you could reach out and feel the man's hair and King Arthur's mane.
