1st Roar [Action/Video]
[The last thing Simba had known, he was in the desert, newly exiled from the Pridelands. He had wandered for what felt like forever before passing out from sheer exhaustion and dehydration. Now, he was slumped on the rooftop of Luceti's schoolhouse, snoozing away with his journal acting as a pillow. Eventually the cub began to stir, and as he did so, leaned to far to the side.
He was suddenly wide awake as the little lion began to tumble and roll down the side of the roof. Desperately trying to stop himself, Simba's claws scratched and scrabbled for purchase, taking some shingles with him as he went. The inevitable occured and he went sailing off the edge, with his claws finally hooking in, causing Simba to dangle several feet above the ground. His journal had fallen as well, hitting the ground in such a way that it came open and triggered the video feed.
Those watching the journals will have a ground view of the cub as he dangles from the school's roof.
Eyes wide in terror, Simba tries to get himself back up before he falls, but to no avail. Quickly his mind goes back to a recent incident where he clung to the spindly remains of a tree while wildebeest thundered past him. Tears spring to his eyes, for he knows his dad won't be there to rescue him this time. So he does the only thing he can think to do, and screams.]
HEEEEEEEELP!

You don't need to thank me for that. I couldn't just let you fall and get hurt when I could do something to stop it.
[Action]
Where am I? This place looks really weird, and uh...
[Something doesn't feel right and he looks at his back, eyes wide.]
Whoa, I have wings?!
[Action]
[... well, to be fair, it's not like he could tell, since lions don't wear New Feather pants.]
This place is called Luceti. Don't worry, you're not dead or anything-- everyone here gets wings when they arrive. See, I've got them too.
[He turns around a little bit so that Simba can see his own pair of green wings.]
[Action]
[He stares a little as Emil shows him his wings. He's never seen a human before though so he wouldn't know if they were supposed to have them or not. But he made it sound like everyone here has this. Still.. it's kinda weird.]
Oh.
[Action]

[... trying to remember what he learned in school.]
A savannah is like a grassland, right? So it must be kind of strange to have this many trees around.
[Action]
[He gestures a paw at the buildings.]
Is even weirder.
[Action]
[Action]
[Action]
[Action]
[Which begs the question...]
Why would you want to build a cave? Can't you just go live in one?
[Action]
[Action]
[Action]
[Action]
[Not that Simba would really know any different, but well.]

When you put it that way, it does sound kind of nice.
