Its consciousness may operate in a another dimensional reference frame where velocity in this universe becomes irrelevant.]
Alex's throat tightened. He stared at the creature's still pupils. It had not moved, yet the explanation alone made him uneasy. If the lion's awareness truly functioned outside normal dimensional speed, then even his instantaneous attacks might not guarantee success.
