As he looked up into the branches, he noticed the boughs of the tree, and realised that this material could help him make a tool to hunt with. Man, filled with renewed energy, set to work carving a cross, using a stone tool to help him shape the wood. A few work-filled hours later, Man held the wooden cross up to the moonlight. He spied a lone beast grazing in the grass a short distance away. Man held up the cross, and threw with all his might.

The natural blockade, formed by a thin line of maples, provided much needed and greatly appreciated asylum from the sun, the rays of which had begun to annoy the grayscale vixen. Only the lightest of breezes tousled her tresses of shadow-and-light mane, the zephyr dysfunctional in its assumed purpose of cooling the mare. Of course, this heat was only a hyperbole overdramatized by a cold-favoring Nakawé, as it wasn't nearly warm enough to bother any regular equine.

The lion, having been starved for the past few days, was looking for a chance to attack. When the lion jumped out, the girl was not afraid. Instead, she walked up to the lion, and held a hand out. The lion was confused, then, out of curiosity, let the girl pet him. The girl handed the lion some of the meat she had on her, and the lion realized she wasn't a threat.

One day, she explained to him what the little lights in the sky were, and instantly the lion became obsessed with the stars. The girl left for her village, and her father demanded that she tell him where she had been. When she explained to him that she was with the lion, he grabbed a gun and went into the mountain.

The father came home and when the girl asked what happened, he said he killed him. The little girl ran to the mountain, and found the lion's
