Lion Cub

“Let me tell you a story. When children are young, they are simple,yes? Think of a little lion cub. Helpless. Sweet. So cute. And then the little lion grows. He ages, and he becomes aware, and he learns. The lion ceases to be the gentle cub he once was. He becomes a predator, cunning and ruthless. And then our lion, now an adult, sees that which his father has, and he aims to take it. He slaughters his father, he kills his siblings, and he takes his family’s land and wealth for his own.”
