Not even five minutes after Nala had left Pride Rock, she was met by a familiar face. Nyasi, still evidently pregnant with her foal, trotted over to the queen from her herd, an expression of concern upon her face. It wasn’t something Nala had seen very often in her time of knowing this particular zebra.
“Your majesty! If you have a moment, I think I should report something that I saw earlier this morning. I was waiting for Zazu to fly by, but he never passed over.” Nyasi said, glancing up towards the clouds.
Nala smiled softly, looking up towards the fellow mother to be. She had promised to see her again soon yesterday, but Nala didn’t think that it would be this soon. “Zazu was participating in a meeting with the entire Pride this morning. What did you see? It’s not like you to be so anxious.”
“Ahh. Well, I don’t want to cause any alarm. When I went out to get my first drink of the morning, I saw a hyena sleeping in a field of scrubs. He’s probably still asleep right now. I’m sure you’ll want to have Simba alerted. Who knows what might happen if that hyena caught you by yourself!”
A knowing grin crossed Nala’s lips as this hyena was mentioned. She knew it would be a matter of time before Zoww got himself noticed by someone. Luckily I wasn’t the likes of an animal that was completely intolerant of hyenas. She’d known of some zebras that would jump at the opportunity to stomp a hapless hyena into dust. Now it seemed it would be her sweeping in to rescue him, so to speak.”
“I appreciate your concern, but I know this hyena you’re speaking of. He won’t harm me, at least I’m fairly certain. Please, show me to him.” Nala said.
The zebra seemed perplexed by this. “You…you trust this hyena? That’s about the last thing I’d expect to hear from you. What has brought about this change?”
“He saved my life. Plus, not all hyenas are evil. They’re animals just like the rest of us, and one clan just happened to help Scar get his paws on power. Zoww is a sweetheart, and I think if we just give him a chance, he can become a valuable part of this kingdom.” Nala spoke with conviction. She really was rooting for Zoww. She felt that she owed him at least that, after all.
“Really? Well, that certainly puts things into perspective. Though I’m guessing his role will be that of corpse clean-up.” Nyasi scoffed and began to walk away, with Nala beginning to wobble and then walk more briskly behind her striped friend.
“Corse-clean up? What is that supposed to mean?” Nala questioned Nyasi with a chuckle.
——————Minutes Later——————
Nyasi was not kidding in the lightest. They had found Zoww laying there on his back, with bones scattered all around him. On those bones were the scant remains of what used to be meaty goodness. Where all that meaty goodness went was quite obvious when the two animals moved their eyes to the hyena’s midriff. Zoww’s belly looked to be in a similar state to Nala’s in her current condition. Round and bloated, it heaved up and down with each slow breath he took, with deep and ominous noises emanating from within as his powerful guts processed what must have been over fifty pounds of raw flesh from whatever it was he’d feasted upon the previous evening.
“See what I mean, your grace? Look at him! What a big slob! He looks like he’s going to burst any moment.” Nyasi rolled her eyes in abject disgust.
Nala simply shook her head in amusement of both what she saw, and Nyasi’s semi-pompous commentary. “I take it you’ve never seen carnivores after a meal. We tend to make quite a mess either way. As for his girth, well, like before, we aren’t much better. You never know when a hunt will be successful again. We meat eaters have to make the most of what we catch, even if it leads to us looking like ticks for a few hours.”
“Hmmm….you make a valid point, your majesty. So this is Zoww? You’re right about one thing. He sure is a bit bigger than your average hyena. What shall we do with him?” Nyasi asked.
Nala began to waddle forward again towards her bloated friend, feeling a little mischievous. “I have to wake him up. I plan on bringing him to Pride Rock by the end of the day so that the others can meet him personally so that we’ll make our final decision about him. I think adding corpse cleaner to his resume will help his chances.”
Soon, the lioness was standing right over her hyena friend, applying her way of waking someone up. One that Timon and Pumbaa certainly wouldn’t forget about. With her paw, she prodded the hyena a few times. Nudging him a few times.
“Zoww….Zoww! Come on, wake up. You can’t be in that deep of a food coma.” Nala’s soft voice didn’t do much more than slightly stir him from his slumber. She then decided to up the ante, and pressed her paw into the hyena’s swollen torso.
Not the best idea.
What followed was a sudden rumble, and before Nala could react, Zoww let out a forced out belch directly into Nala’s face with the force of a tiger roaring at full furosity. Nala reared back and coughed a few times.
The lioness shook her head. “Gosh! Probably not my wisest decision as queen thus far.”
“Heh, I was about to say…” Nyasi giggled softly, finding this moment quite entertaining.
Fortunately, this action was enough to wake the slumbering hyena. Zoww’s blue eyes opened up slowly and he met Nala’s gaze immediately. When he realized who it was looking over him, he woke up fast, and shook his head.
“Oh….oh! H-hey Nala! Urph! Wasn’t expecting to see you as soon as I woke up. Uhhh…how long were you standing there and watching me sleep? Just curious. I don’t uh…mind.” He awkwardly moved his paws around as he greeted the queen standing over him.
A soft chuckle left the lioness’ mouth. “Long enough to know that you had yourself a midnight snack…a big one. What did you have?” Her eyes glanced towards Zoww’s swollen stomach and the bones scattered around him.
Zoww looked down and noticed how utterly bloated he was. He flushed and rested a paw upon his belly, trying to sooth the sheer fullness he was feeling, even a few hours after he’d done the deed. With a stifled burp, he spoke up.
“Oh! This?? I uh, I was just feeling a little peckish after you wandered off. So I followed my nose over to this dead impala….and after that is kinda a blur.” He smiled in a cute, innocent way.
Nala leaned down, holding back a gasp. “You ate the whole thing by yourself, didn’t you!? How do you even manage that? You’re more of a pig than Pumbaa! No offense to either of you.”
Nyasi cut in, getting Zoww’s attention. “Are we so sure that Nala and I are the only ones who are pregnant here? Those are some wild cravings, I must say.”
That comment left the round hyena completely flustered. Him? Pregnant? That was….a thought to be sure. “Oh! That’s a good one! Human food really did something to my appetite! Hehehehehehe- Nala who is that?” He leaned towards the lioness.
“This is Nyasi. She leads a herd of zebras, and is an old friend of mine. You’ll learn to love her, I’m certain. Right Nyasi?” She turned back to the striped equine.
“I don’t know about LOVE….I have my heart set on another. But, I’ve never really gotten to know a hyena before. This will certainly be interesting.” She posed regally. “Well then, what shall we do now?”
“Well, we can show Zoww around the kingdom. The whole kingdom.” Nala looked Zoww over once more. “As soon as this one can walk. At least you know how it’s like to be like me, right Zoww?”
Zoww perked up and then began to roll side to side, his stomach sloshing his half digested food audibly before he managed to heave to his paws. “Right! But like you, I can still get around like a champ!” He stood before Nala, his smile wide and his eyes full of enthusiasm despite not feeling his best. Not many would after eating so much.
A warm smile filled Nala’s features again. Once again, she found herself impressed with Zoww’s determination to please her. It didn’t seem fake at all to her. To Nala, Zoww was as some would say, friend shaped. “Well then, we’d best not delay. You might look pregnant, but the two of us actually have a bit of a deadline ahead of us. Are you sure you can walk?”
“Sure I can! As well as you can at least.” He stuck his tongue out and began to walk. Slowly. By the time he walked ahead past Nala and Nyasi, he already stumbled over and panted. “Okay, I might need to pause a few times….maybe if I let out a few burps-“
Nyasi stepped over and interrupted. “That won’t be necessary. We don’t want to be RUDE in the Queen’s presence, do we? Here. Maybe what you need is a ride.”
Carefully, the pregnant zebra bent down and rested on her stomach, giving Zoww an encouraging smile. Nala looked surprised by her friend’s offer, but soon winked at the hyena, encouraging him to take it.
“Go on. I’ll help you up. I’m excited personally. I’ve never taken a hyena on a safari before.” Nala smirked, heading towards Zoww to help him up onto the zebra’s back.

Now that I've seen Baldur's Gate 3, I get a little worried when I see a hyena gorging themselves.
The Baldur's Gate series uses Dungeons & Dragons lore. When a hyena consumes prey that was killed by a gnoll, they fall into a trance of sorts. They eat ravenously until they're left bloated and immobilized. A new gnoll spawns inside of them, growing until it bursts out of them like a Xenomorph.
One can be encountered in BG3, and they're about the same size as Zoww here.
