Maybe it seemed to be my brother, but eventually the human part of my brother disappeared, or perhaps he forgot about his humanity, because he got used to his newfound animalistic nature. One thing I’m sure is that dead vermin isn’t my brother. My brother would never let our…

General Overview Description: The central African savanna biome is a tropical grassland characterized by its thick grassy plains and few dispersed trees that do not have a high enough tree density to form a closed canopy. Consequently, this allows for sunlight to reach the ground, supporting a thick and healthy layer of plantlife consisting primarily of grass. It is also characterized by its seasonal availability in water as a large majority of its rainfall is subject to one season.…
