I'm not sure. Maybe it's talking about follower stories. Like with Harry Potter and other similar themed stories made after. Maybe.
Help, anyone?

I agree with Kugua577.
One of the origin is about a dispute between a lion and a man as follows:
Once they two traveled through the forest. Then they began to boast of their strength and prowess. When the man saw the statue carved in stone, which represented " A lion is strangled by a man, he sneered at the lion, pointing to it and saying, "See there! How strong we are and how we prevail over even the king of beasts. Hearing that, the lion replied, " This statue was made by one of you men. If we lions knew hoe to erected statues, you would see the Man placed under the paw of the lion.
One story is good, till another is told.
