A Pride Divided

In the vast expanse of Pangaea, a supercontinent divided into four distinct geographic Quadrants - the Plains, Forests, Mountains, and Tundras - the lion prides have established territories within smaller, interconnected Sections, each with their own unique identities. Kopa, a young lion born into the Savannah Section of the Plains Quadrant, has always yearned to explore beyond the borders of his familiar home. As he comes of age, Kopa's curiosity leads him to forge connections with prides in the neighboring Woodland and Foothills Sections, uncovering the complex web of alliances and rivalries that link the lion kingdoms across Pangaea. But when a devastating war erupts within the Plains Quadrant, pitting the Savannah pride against their neighbors in the Grasslands and Scrublands Sections, Kopa finds himself at the heart of a conflict that threatens to destabilize the delicate balance of power across all four Quadrants. With the future of the lion way of life hanging in the balance, Kopa must navigate a treacherous political landscape and uncover the truth behind the origins of the war in order to unite the divided prides. Spanning three volumes, "The Prides of Pangaea" is an epic saga of discovery, loyalty, and the power of legacy in a world where the only limits are the boundaries that lions themselves have created. Through Kopa's journey, this sweeping narrative explores themes of identity, community, and the indomitable spirit that drives lions to forge their own destiny, no matter the cost.

Haunted by dreams he can’t fully remember, shackled by a bloodline that is both a blessing and a curse, Jabari is thrust onto a path of vengeance – one born from tragedy but fuelled by love. Still, as he grows stronger, as the fire inside him blazes hotter, he begins to realise the truth. The part of him he spent his whole life suppressing was never a weakness. It was never a sin. It was his Pride! And now that it had awakened, after years buried beneath hardship and survival, it would rather burn the world down before it bowed to anyone again. - For as long as Jabari could remember, it had always been him and Inayah against the world. No family. No safety. No future. Just two starving children clawing their way through the slums of the Umeme Tribe, doing whatever it took to survive. It wasn’t much, but at the very least, they had each other! Then, Inayah got sick! At first, Jabari thought it was just another cruel twist of fate – one more reminder that the world didn’t give a damn about them. But then the truth came out. His little sister’s illness wasn’t fate. It wasn’t an accident. Someone did this to her. And worse… it was someone he had once dared to call a friend! On the receiving end, betrayal was of the cruellest of punishments. It didn’t just hurt – it burned. It carved into the flesh, etched itself into the bones, and branded itself onto the soul. It took something from you that you could almost never get back. But for the dealer? Betrayal was a gamble. High risk. High reward. Play your cards right, and you could have everything you ever wanted, and more. Pick the wrong person, though… At that point, death won’t be a punishment – it’ll be a mercy! Jabari will save his sister. As for those responsible? He’ll make them wish they were never born! - I understand that Volume 1 is a little slow, so for those impatient readers out there, feel free to skip to Volume 2. It'll take a minute to understand everything that happened in the without reading Volume 1, but it's not too disorientating!

Some exist with pride, others struggle with pride, some compete with pride, and there are those who fail with pride, but very few can walk away with pride. Congratulations, for as you read these lines, you have witnessed the whole lives of many great basketball players. This pronunciation was embodied when Stephen Curry, after facing defeat in 2021, claimed that no one would want to face them the following season; When Tim Duncan was convinced before the start of the 2014 Finals that they would not mess up; When Kobe Bryant promised at Old Buss's memorial to take the Lakers to the playoffs; When Nowitzki, shedding his label as a soft player, retreated to the locker room in tears at night; When Kevin Garnett let out a skyward howl after holding the championship trophy; When the 2004 Detroit Pistons won and the F4 Lakers lost… Our story begins in an era when pride still mattered.

HELLO it's me the author of this story it's my first time making a noval so if mistakes arise I hope you will provide feedback on that. and help me the story too I'm open to any suggestions and my noval is connected to a few novals like. In a realm where multiple worlds exist, bound by threads of fate and power, the story unfolds around ancient forces and long-forgotten legacies. These worlds are shaped by the existence of powerful orders and divine beings, their destinies interwoven in a cosmic struggle. Knight Pride is an order of honorable warriors, sworn to protect the light and uphold justice. These knights carry within them a fierce sense of duty, defending their kingdoms from the corruption that seeps through the realms. Their strength lies not only in their combat prowess but in their unshakable belief in virtue. On the opposite side lie the Hollowed, beings who have lost their sense of self and become empty vessels, controlled by dark forces. Once proud warriors and leaders, the Hollowed now serve the twisted will of the Dark God, a powerful entity that seeks to dominate and consume the essence of all life. Its influence has spread across worlds, leaving entire civilizations in despair. Among these entities are the Ascendants of Eternity, mortals who have transcended their earthly limitations and achieved god-like power. These beings exist between realms, neither fully alive nor dead, but eternally bound to the cycles of creation and destruction. Their ascension grants them immense abilities, and they serve as guardians of balance, though not all choose the same path. The Dark God’s Influence manipulates individuals across worlds, turning them into its vessels. It has laid a silent hand upon kingdoms, sowing discord, drawing upon the power of fear and hatred to fuel its dark ambitions. As the balance between light and darkness teeters, the Dark God's sway grows stronger, threatening the very fabric of existence. The various orders and beings connected to these events must come together or fall, as the line between good and evil blurs. The fight for survival spans not just individual worlds, but the cosmos itself. Forces clash, alliances form, and destinies are rewritten as the eternal conflict between light and shadow reaches its climax. In the midst of this, forgotten prophecies resurface, revealing that a chosen one may rise from among the broken to defy the looming darkness, unravel the curse of the Hollowed, and either become an Ascendant of Eternity or fall into the depths of the Dark God's embrace.

“Listen for the buzz of the Golden Honeybee’s wings, Where it will guide you to a lonely mountain creek, Follow the path abandoned by the hearts of kings, And be sure not to make a single peep. Then, the White Tiger’s snores you’ll hear, Below the bright azure skies of crystal clear, Walk into the fiery sea of blazing chrysanthemums, Whilst being careful of the spirit foxes’ bums, And there, you will find me, Sleeping below the great hollow tree.”

At 28, Clara Hayes has mastered the art of wearing masks. To her colleagues, she’s the perpetually cheerful graphic designer who never misses a deadline. To her overbearing mother, she’s the dutiful daughter hiding her anxiety behind polished smiles. To the world, she’s a woman who “has it all together”—except she’s crumbling inside. Clara’s life unravels during a corporate presentation where a panic attack strips her façade raw. Humiliated and exhausted, she flees to a quiet coastal town, renting a cottage owned by an eccentric, free-spirited potter named Marisol. There, Clara stumbles upon a dusty journal in the attic, its pages filled with haunting sketches and anonymous confessions from a woman who once lived there decades earlier. The entries mirror Clara’s own suffocating duality: “I paint myself in colors the world approves of, but my soul is a grayscale.” As Clara tentatively befriends Marisol and a reclusive widower, Eli, who runs the town’s crumbling bookstore, she begins confronting the lies she’s told herself for years. Through their unconventional guidance—and the journal’s cryptic wisdom—she starts shedding her masks one by one. But vulnerability comes at a cost: her corporate career teeters, her mother’s disapproval intensifies, and a buried trauma from her teenage years resurfaces, threatening to drown her newfound courage. When Clara’s raw, unfiltered artwork—created in secret—goes viral, she faces a choice: return to the safety of her old illusions or step into the terrifying freedom of living unapologetically. But the journal hides a final secret, linking Clara’s journey to the cottage’s mysterious past, forcing her to question whether true authenticity is a rebellion… or a homecoming.

Ethan Grayson has it all: a multi-billion-dollar company, a penthouse view, and a personality so charming it’s borderline unbearable. But after one too many dinner dates with women who talk more about his stock portfolio than their hobbies, Ethan decides he’s done with high society. His grand plan? Marry a “normal” woman who doesn’t care about his money. Simple, right? Enter Emily Carter, a bookshop employee who thinks a “luxury” is buying two cups of coffee in one day. She’s witty, stubborn, and entirely unimpressed when Ethan waltzes into her shop one afternoon, throwing around compliments like confetti. For Ethan, Emily is everything he’s looking for: genuine, grounded, and refreshingly immune to his usual charm. There’s just one tiny problem. Ethan’s arrogance is the size of his bank account, and Emily has no patience for egotistical billionaires—no matter how good their jawline is. As Ethan awkwardly tries to “woo” Emily in the most unromantic ways possible (think unsolicited business advice and overly generous tips), Emily starts to wonder if this handsome stranger might actually have a heart hidden under all that bravado. But when she discovers his real reason for pursuing her, all bets are off. Will Ethan learn to drop his ego long enough to win Emily’s trust? Or will Emily decide that some books are better left closed?
