These lands were NOTHING like the Jungle. They were colder and higher. She had never looked down on her old home before but as she sat here on the ledge her eyes couldn't help but find the lush tree canopy and she knew that it was a Jungle. It had to be. She could remember the sunlight dancing through the leaves when the winds would roll through. Trying to catch the shadows as they moved across the Jungle floor. Maybe one day she would visit the Jungle here but for now, she was here. It wasn't a good or bad thing, it just was. The yearling had nothing else going for her so what harm would come from being in these lands for as long as they would have her? She laid down on the hard ground, her eyes never leaving the treetops as she watched them sway slightly but couldn't feel the wind that must be blowing lower than where she was now.

The maroon-pelted gentry had more or less walked upon the youth peering over the edge with curiosity, having not noticed her until she was within her sights. She had just returned from a patrol of the border, and was actually pleased to see someone after quite a long time of remaining quiet with thoughts to herself.

"Well hello." She chuffed, smiling and ready to add a little flick of her tail along with it for whenever the other turned to look around at her, a little wave of greeting. "I don't believe we've gotten to know each other yet."

And that was important, to know her pride members by name and by otherwise. It was a learning process with more and more coming in, but she was trying her damndest to keep up.

Life in the pride had started to become normalized to the orange faced lioness. She had met a number of them, even hunted with them, but she wouldn’t stop searching out her pride mates until she knew all of them. Zoticus had said there were fine men here for her to pick as a husband. Well he had said it in different words, but still it was implied. So far though the lady hadn’t seen too many. Yet the ones she had seen were very good looking. Thinking about it she smiled softly as she walked around in her home. Following the path she jumped up onto a new ledge and spotted someone a bit always from her. Looking over at the girl she noticed she seemed younger and that made her smile grow wider. ”Hello there.” She chuffed as she stepped closer but not too close. ”Mind if I join you up here? Seems a bit lonely.” She asked softly. It did seem lonely but mostly she wanted to get to spend some time with her pride mate and get to know the girl. Though she would go if @Ayaka shooed her off.

Shifting her gaze Arjana than noticed other lady and her smile grew wider. Looking between them both she spoke up again this time a little louder as the wind picked up on his back making her shiver. She so wasn’t use to the cold like this. ”I am Arjana.”

It seemed that being alone wasn't a thing here and she wasn't sure if she cared or not. On one hand she had been alone for so long that anything but that was strange but welcomed. She had been born into a thriving pride before it was ripped away from her. She looked to the lioness as she neared, a stranger, for now, she guessed. Ayaka made no attempt to move from her current spot to show acceptance of Cicre but she also didn't show anything that would say she was unwelcome. It wasn't long before another showed and took up more space on the overlook. To the question, she shrugged her shoulders as she pushed herself up into a seated position, not really keen on being laying down while the others were up. "I am Ayaka. She looked between the pair, "Have you been part of the pride long? While she wasn't really clued in on all the normal things a pride lioness would be able to talk about she hoped that maybe they would think her friendly enough? Maybe.
