Prologue.
In the tropical rainforests in the eastern DRC, a blue gorilla was born in the storm.
”Graueri”. That was the name he was given.
The troop leader looked upon him in disgust. Never in his life had there ever been a blue gorilla but surprisingly his life was spared.
The storm quickly past and the life of the blue gorilla has only begun.

Chapter 6: Attack from crowned eagles.
A few days later, the mandrill troop was calling out for help. The blue gorilla and the mandrill chief rushed to the troop.
They looked up and spotted two crowned eagles flying above looking for an opening. The mandrill bared his fangs at the birds.
Knowing there was no way to grab a young mandrill which was too close to their mothers, the eagles left to look for easier prey.
