SAVAGE
Back
Story
Unable
to fit all of this information into the story itself, without
compromising flow.
This
is a small guide to the back story to the world of Savage. Please
understand that the time is different than human/dog times in real
life. I made it to fit more like human years, but with different
qualities that would be expected of say a ten year old.
The
world is called the Woodland Haven, or Haven
It
is a large expanse of woods settled at the edge of vast plainland
valley.
The
valley is surrounded by massive mountains that lays at the tip of a
peninsula
The
forest is settled at the foot of the mountain that leads to the
mainland.
The
plains expands a long way to the foot of the far mountains.
At
the center of the Haven is a large mountainous rock where live the
current rulers of the Haven. The Wolf regime
A
little about the regime change The
wolves won the control of the Haven 20 years before the story
They
fought in a long and terrible war with the Lion Order
Pumas/Panthaers,
aided by the fox tribe
The
wolves had the birds, fish, bears, and smaller creatures on their
side.
They
drove the Lions and Foxes out to the plains, where they rule over
the whole rest of the valley
The
wolves honored five leaders for leading them out from under the
Lions order
By
the time the story starts there are two surviving members of that
group
Jedus
and Luka
The
main story starts with a chase after a murderer who has killed Jedus
Gray
is a member of the four man squad sent after the assassin
He
is the brother of Felix, the current leader of the order
They
are the son of the third leader to die; Tero
Luka,
the last survivor is an older wolf, who in her prime was a brilliant
tactician
She is now about 40 years old,
still considered a beautiful animal
The
government
Government
is a sort of constitutional monarchy
The
wolves have the king, currently Felix
they
also have the most seats on the council
Each
animal group that supported the Wolves is represented
Insects,
Birds, Bears, Fish, deer, and the smaller creatures (squirrels,
rabbits, racoons)
Felix,
as king is given the honor of presiding over he council meetings.
Before,
the Lion order was a straight monarchy, where the king of the lions
ruled over the others. They were unfair in their treatment of other
animals, besides the Foxes, who weaseled their way into the Lion's
trust
They
were then banished after the war
It
is said they rule over the outlands, (the plains outside of Haven)
The
Lions have been quiet, but the Fox clan has been moving to overthrow
the Wolf regime.
