The **Sweltering Range** is a fan-kingdom set in the world of *I Hope So* made by SassySaber. Inferno rules over it from within the **Shadowed Forest** and it is comprised of many smaller prides.

## Summary

> *The Shadowed Forest is the seat of Inferno's empire, The Sweltering Range, and the first pride he ever conquered. The trees are thick and make everything dark even during the day. It is easy to get lost here and only the animals with the best night vision can navigate at night. There is no naming tradition here as Inferno didn't care to enforce one.*

## Prides

### The Thundering Shore

This pride is set near the ocean. These lions fish and swim just as well as they hunt on land. They are named after water and ice. This pride retained it's King after Inferno's take over, but only because the King surrendered to Inferno.

**Current Members**

### The Misty Valley

A valley shrouded in mist with large trees. The mist is caused by the humid days that more often than not end up having a rainstorm. The lions here are named after fruits and plants. They are ruled by Dragonfruit, one of Inferno's original Knights.

**Current Members**

### The Golden Desert

A desert pride on the edge of Inferno's Empire that is ruled by King Fulmination. She did not change the naming tradition when she took over, but she also did not change her own name. The lions here are named after things that are found in the desert. This pride plays are large part in the empire's security since it is very difficult to cross the desert and still be ready to fight.

### The Crimson Pass

This pride plays a part in keeping the empire secure. On either side of the pass are large mountains that are difficult to cross. The only way through is through the Crimson Pass. These lions are named after flowers and trees. Oak is this pride's King and was one of Inferno's original Knights.

### The Cloudy Summit

This pride sits on the top of a large mountain. It gets its name because most of the time, the very top of the mountain is obscured by dense fog. However, once you reach the top, the skies are clear and vast. Because of this, the lions that live here choose to name themselves and their cubs after things that can be seen in the sky and in space. This kingdom is ruled by Interstellar, one of Inferno's original Knights.

### The Ashen Canyon

The Ashen Canyon is a relatively small part of Inferno's Empire, but it plays an important role. This is where all of the prides in the empire gather to meet. Whenever it is not being used for a meeting of the prides, it is controlled by one of the Kings. The canyon got it's name from the ash gray stones that make up the canyon.
