Prince Nahu and Tiarius
Prince Nahu was born with a spirit tiger gryphon by his side.
Tiarius had been sent to guard him from the instant he arrived on earth.
Majestic Nahu had been sent by the Lords of Earth and Air.
They knew he would be able to reunify the powerful planet.
Tiarius, the spirit tiger gryphon was vigilant, alert to all dangers.
Thwarted two assassination attempts by the time Nahu was eight.
Prince Nahu was always talking about Tiarius and his love for him.
Self-assured, they were best friends, and did everything together.
Before Prince Nahu ventured into a jungle, gryphon Tiarius cleared it.
He helped assure that the young prince would grow up morally straight.
When Prince Nahu was crowned King Nahu, Tiarius disappeared.
Prince Nahu was told that Tiarius had been his imaginary friend,
but he knew better because he met him in his dreams.
