From the Guardian Zarif's point of view.
Zarif was one of the first to discover the land of Amanija. He, along with a few other animals sought peace and a safe haven from the rest of the world, where humans destroyed forests and other animal homes. When he first came to Amanija, two hundred years ago, no other living creatures were in the land, except for plants, of course. He and the rest of the small herd lived in the land and enjoyed it. The carnivores had to do without meat, as there were no other animals other than the ones in their herd. Over time, they found that the fruits and vegetation was tasty and healthy. The plants that grew in this strange new land were unlike any other. Many familiar plants were here as well.
At first, the herd used the whole land as it's territory, due to the fact that they were all used to different climates. They slowly became used to it, and were able to live in one area together. It was later discovered, when the first generation had all died and past into the afterlife, that, though they could not control the weather, they could use their very being to make all animals comfortable with any climate, so long as they were within Amanija borders.
Zarif enjoyed every moment in Amanija, and lived life fully. The only unsatisfying part was when rogues attacked the herd. The rogues consisted mainly of those already in the herd, as there was only one at the time. Some of the rogues were of this first generation, whilst some were new comers to the land, and some offspring of the first generation. In a bloody battle, the rogues were defeated and the land was peaceful once more.
As more and more animals lived in the land, some members of the herds wanted different rules to be made, and so, they created their own clans. Surprisingly, the five clans never got into a huge battle though there were occasional small fights. All of that has been resolved now, and the clans normally get along well.
