As Julie continued to explore this strange building, more changes began to spread from her into others in the hotel. It was an awakening of totem creatures, and the leopard woman was only the first. The woman gave the cub a cursory glance now as she padded away down the hallway, not paying much mind to the spear. The magic that had infected her had instilled a certain moniker of respect for the lion tribe, and that the child was here exploring as she was didn't surprise her.
Julie, meanwhile, was changing more herself. The power of her totem animal was growing even stronger now. Her very existence and being was altering. Her experience in hunting became much less, more akin to a lioness who still had much to learn. She was only seven after all, but she had the animal instincts and she had watched the other lionesses, so one day she would become an apex creature such as they.
The name Julie switfly meant nothing to her. Instead she thought of herself as Zuri, which meant beautiful. Coming now to an outside area, Zuri heard the sound of other cubs at play. Immediately her hunter's instinct was piqued, but even as an aspiring huntress, she was still a 'child'
As Zuli exited out, back in her room, her old things dissapeared from the room as she left that life of being a human child, a human boy, of anything related to what she'd been and emerged as the first of swiftly changing world.
