Heroes/Heidi

Lore
They can't even get a decent king for themselves, can they? – Heidi grumbled, carefully wiping his pet, an incredibly poisonous snake named Koba. Heidi doesn't like impostors, especially after what happened fifteen years ago.

Heidi was just a child when Gurjar visited the forest with his escort. Eclipsing the sun with his grandeur he looked like the most beautiful tiger ever. The newfound favorite's wise words flowed like a river, and the animals listened with admiration to every word the guest said. And nobody had doubts that he should become the new king of the forest.

In those days people and animals just began getting along with each other. It seemed like things would get even better with the new king. Gurjar quickly got into role, found the servants and made a schedule. Tiger's character proved to be quite difficult, and only those who met the regal's demands without question could get along with him. Relationship with people worsened as well – on the king Gurjar's orders the servants ransacked people's fields and villages. With time raids on villages grew into the attacks on cities. But the most terrible of it all was when the ruler's newborn son disappeared. The grieving king-father accused the forest dwellers of stealing. Furious and heavily armed men moved into the forest. Animals, angry at people for such a serious accusation, prepared for a fierce battle too.

But little Heidi acted in a different way. Being a disguise fan and knowing the forest like the back of his hand he went straight to the Gurjar's house. What he found didn't look like a king for one bit. A huge and furious demon was preparing to finish off the baby! What to do, how to stop the murder? Heidi grabbed the first thing he could and threw at the demon. The snake, that's what the hero threw at him, bit the demon. Surprisingly, it was more than enough to send the monster back to hell. The child was saved, and the people, learning that Gurjar was actually a demon, realized their mistake. The forest dwellers weren't guilty, and the evil demon wanted nothing but to make them hate each other. Thus, humans and animals were at peace again. A very poisonous snake Koba remembers it all as well – since that time they've become best friends with Heidi.

Kings, queens... – Heidi shook his hairy head, – You can live without kings just as well!. He spat on grass and after stretching his legs went to the Guardians' camp.
