Aniyala

Appearance
Aniyala is a sleek, agile, creamish brown lioness with dark brown eyes.

Personality
Aniyala is usually calm and trustworthy when approaching those that seem innocent, but when a potential threat is lurking nearby she won't hesitate to stand up for herself. She is very loyal to her pride and had deep faith in the prophecy and the Travelers.

Spirit Lion
Aniyala is first seen when Pobi, Meeka, Blazer, Gohaddie, and Grozi are traveling through the desert in search of the Mudland Pride. When Pobi is eating near the Purpleberry Bush, he spots Aniyala as a distance shadow coming towards them. When she spots them, she sits down and questions why a monkey is in the desert. When Pobi seems suspicious, she tells him she comes in peace. When Gohaddie asks where she comes from, Aniyala introduces herself to the travelers, telling them she comes from a nearby pride. She turns to look at Grozi in surprise. She observes that they have had a long journey. Pobi sighs that it is a long story. She stares at him in confusion. Meeka tells her Grozi is with them and Pobi tells her how Grozi came down from Spirit Haven. He then goes on to tell them about the quest they are on. Aniyala addresses the group that because they are scrawny and half-starved, the journey wouldn't be easy. She explains that they are just outside Bone Hill Pride territory. She wants them to have some rest and asks them to follow her.
