Friends Past and Present by Larka
For the Zion Contest. This scene depicts Zion encountering the white snake (his future friend) for the first time, shortly after the disaster with his tribe. Though he does not fully know it, the white snakes reminds him of his lost friend Laria. In the past she always wore a fragment of pale shed snake skin for good luck, as her aunt always told her that the remains of albino creatures would ward off foul spirits

(Continued) Laria always had a personal facination with reptiles and snakes, as cubs Zion and her would explore trying to find or discover new kinds of reptiles (much to the angst and disapointment of the others). The way I see it, Zion subconciously has con.nected the sight of a pale snake to his diseased friend. It's like someone making a con.nection to a certain song to something or someone to their past, without knowing it. You may really like cherry-soda without knowing why, not knowing that it reminds you of your grandmother who used to love cherry-soda. I personally wanted to do an entry that con.nected both to Zion's past and present, and applying a deep meaning to why he is the way he is and how his past defined him. Hope you like it! I kind of deviated from the original Laria design, but that's okay since the rules said I could in the name of creativity. If you want I could do another picture that depicts Zion and Laria as cubs exploring the desert, if you want me to......
