00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:01.820
The heat of the jungle had clung to

00:00:01.820 --> 00:00:03.819
A 'Leon's skin all day like a heavy.

00:00:04.139 --> 00:00:04.900
invisible cloak.

00:00:05.540 --> 00:00:07.580
By the time the humid summer evening began

00:00:07.580 --> 00:00:10.039
to settle over the canopy. the air was

00:00:10.039 --> 00:00:10.240
thick

00:00:10.240 --> 00:00:12.400
with the scent of damp earth and blooming

00:00:12.400 --> 00:00:13.119
orchids.

00:00:13.699 --> 00:00:16.339
Guided only by the low. rumbling percussion of

00:00:16.339 --> 00:00:18.399
rushing water. he pushed his way through

00:00:18.399 --> 00:00:21.399
a final curtain of oversized ferns and stepped

00:00:21.399 --> 00:00:23.260
out onto the edge of a hidden gorge.

00:00:23.960 --> 00:00:26.059
Before him lay a secluded sanctuary.

00:00:26.059 --> 00:00:29.000
Cascading from the shadowed heights above. a veil

00:00:29.000 --> 00:00:30.920
of white water poured endlessly down

00:00:30.920 --> 00:00:33.479
moss -slicked rocks. feeding a crystal clear pool

00:00:33.479 --> 00:00:33.939
below.

00:00:34.579 --> 00:00:37.299
The water glowed with an ethereal. luminous turquoise

00:00:37.299 --> 00:00:39.100
in the soft dusk light. looking

00:00:39.100 --> 00:00:41.420
entirely untouched by the outside world.

00:00:42.060 --> 00:00:44.359
Cool mist drifted upward from the dark boulders.

00:00:44.799 --> 00:00:47.140
instantly kissing A 'Leon's flushed face and

00:00:47.140 --> 00:00:49.340
sending a shiver of pure relief down his

00:00:49.340 --> 00:00:49.619
spine.

00:00:50.439 --> 00:00:52.520
Without a second thought. he kicked off his

00:00:52.520 --> 00:00:54.539
boots and slid into the refreshing embrace

00:00:54.539 --> 00:00:55.359
of the deep pool.

00:00:55.780 --> 00:00:58.759
The water was brisk. washing away the exhaustion

00:00:58.759 --> 00:00:59.799
of the grueling trek.

00:01:00.520 --> 00:01:02.780
Floating flat on his back. he watched the

00:01:02.780 --> 00:01:04.780
first stars begin to puncture the deepening

00:01:04.780 --> 00:01:07.359
violet sky through the opening in the jungle

00:01:07.359 --> 00:01:10.079
gorge. listening to the eternal. soothing

00:01:10.079 --> 00:01:12.019
roar of the falls wrap around him like

00:01:12.019 --> 00:01:12.439
a lullaby.
