Ziminii

Ziminii is a shy female Nylin. She cannot speak English, but she's quite nice around most mascots. She is ridden by Jitzinn, a Xrynii. She has a scar above her front-right thigh, but we'll get to that in her story.

Story of Ziminii's life so far
Her life began as a newborn Nylin hatchling. Her father and brother have passed before her arrival. They have died because of hunters, searching for beautiful bioluminescent gems for the nearby marketplace. Her mother had cared for her for a few years until she, like her descendants, had died of a hunter. She ran off, lucky to be alive. The hunters did not find her.

She had lived life solitary for a year, until Jitzinn, a Xrynii, like the hunters, had found her. She was very scared, as she thought he was another hunter. But she was very surprised to find out that Jitzinn was petting her, and being nice! She was still shy around him, pondering what he would do to her next. He had carried her to a tent, far from closeby civilization.

Jitzinn had cared for her for some months, until he had decided to name her Ziminii, after Zyminya, a goddess from a century-old religion. She had grown to be large enough for Jitzinn to ride her. (like horses today)

They rode into the nearby town, shocking citizens. hunters had found out the beauty of this animal. Xryniikind use Nylin today as Jitzinn had used them.

When you read the part of Jitzinn's story that explained how he got to Mascotia, it's practically the same, but from Ziminii's perspective.
