Again, thank you for reading SWS!

I'm not sure how well this is going to work or not, but I'm gonna try it anyway.

I originally uploaded this story first on Wattpad, and they have the option to add images and links, which I took advantage of. I would have done the same here, but the upload system is different and the direct links from Google Docs are apparently not compatible or something.

Anyway, what I want to do here is share the links to a few videos/pictures that involve some of the things mentioned within the story, especially those that involved the characters.

Faline, for example. The noises that she makes while in her feline form. Ocelots have very deep voices and can come as a shock to those unsuspecting. The 'zombie' noises Faline makes within the story, can be heard here:

The other more common vocals I had her doing were the 'no no no' talking. The video of a cat doing this can be seen here, but just imagine it being done with the ocelot pitch instead of a housecat:

Kinda freaky when you think about it, huh?

For Xavier, the maned wolf, a canine that despite its name isn't a wolf at all, has a 'roar-bark', and can be seen & heard here:

Not the most glorious of tones, is it?

Other tones mentioned in the story was his 'talking', and this is what that sounds like:

Aside from those and a few others, this animal is actually pretty quiet overall, unlike the man himself.

Another male in the book, Nicolaus, also has a misleading animal; the cougar. While the mountain lion is a very large cat, it can make some adorably small squeaks, heard here:

Most commonly heard when calling kittens to their mother, Nico uses it to mock and annoy Faline. Their purring as well is quite loud, and really does sound like a motor engine.

There's one more I'd like to share, Benjamin, and his Bengal tiger. This is where you'd swear the Creators mixed up the cats as these guys don't purr at all, instead make a 'chuffing' sound that signifies their mood:

When Benji's tiger is first called within his office and laying practically in Kierra's lap, these were the tones that came from him.

Even though my book is a Fictional Dark Fantasy, there is a lot of fact mixed in with it. All the information shared that is animal-related was all researched and based on truth. The only things that got tweaked were some colorations.

I really hope you enjoyed reading! Please leave any comments or questions you may have and I'll be happy to answer!
