The

Lion

With creak and grind of time-worn wheel

A king of all is brought to kneel

Omens

0 of 6 encountered

1. On the brink of a disused clay pit, a potter shapes a bowl, telling a story to the dozen children gathered to watch. She tells of the Lion, the king of beasts. No Knight could slay him, but a potter was his great enemy. She avoids giving any details.
2. Horse breeders leading a dozen chargers toward the Seat of Power. They’re struggling to get the horses moving, as they’re all bowing toward the Lion’s Hex.
3. An isolated, babbling pond. A pike pokes its head from the water to cackle at passers-by. It can’t really speak, but mimics words it has heard. It shouts “He’s here for his crown” among the gibberish.
4. All steeds throw riders to the ground before charging off toward the Seat of Power to await the Lion’s arrival.
5. The Lion, heading toward the Seat of Power to peacefully take the Domain.
6. Tired herald spreads word that the Lion has taken the Seat of Power. Some humans remain in court, but mostly they’re replaced with unsuitable beasts.
