He glanced at Kaya, who was watching him with open anticipation. A smile tugged at his lips before he began.
Kaya had half-expected him to dodge the task entirely, but to her surprise, he started reading aloud:
"Thousands of years ago, there were fifteen disciples of the God of Beasts. Each disciple chose a tribe to lead. Some were stronger, some weaker, and some sharper than the rest. But among them was one exception—a girl.
"She did not belong to any tribe. Unlike the other beast disciples, who could transform into their beast forms, she could not. And yet, it was said she was far stronger than any beast woman alive.
"She led a tribe unlike any other—a haven that welcomed every abandoned beast woman. Those rejected by other tribes found shelter with her.
"To the rest of the beast women, she was both a savior and a threat. Her power had no known limit, and no one truly knew the extent of it."
