Beluna's Puma

Beluna first met the puma when it attacked her, and it bit her ankle. Not exactly the perfect introduction, but it left a message

and definitely put a new meaning to "first impressions". The mountain lion was unconscious, but Beluna (despite it's desire to kill her a few seconds ago) brought it back to camp with her. Beluna takes care of the puma, and she uses it as comfort, but it also started to grow on her and she became fond of it. Beluna trained the puma whenever she ran away into the woods, she had hidden it in a small clearing because she wasn't sure what everyone else would do to it. Training was mostly just fighting, and Beluna trying to show it that she was stronger. Finally Beluna managed to teach it some things, at it trusted her, just like she trusted it. The puma follows her sometimes, Brian and Beluna rode her to the final battle scene although she did not join the fight. Beluna never named it during threads up until the final battle, but she named it shortly after the threads concluded. Beluna has a special bond with her puma, just like with her other animal companions.

Her name is pronounced: (S-eh-free-ah)
