My body withers, and yet I hunt the sands, in search of a fleeting vision of her. Her hair hung low in a heavy braid, draped over her fur-covered breast. Pelts and bones were the only garments that adorned her lithe body, and her green eyes stared through me as I rose from the pools. She, the lioness, and I, her startled prey.

As they, I yearned for her touch, for the caress of her supple fingers, winding their way through my rival’s mane. Did her cheeks flush with color as she disappeared silently into a mist of sand?
After, I lay for many days in a dazed and troubled heat, speaking only of her, my madness reflected in the gentle eyes of those who tended me.
