(Takes place the day after the SL war) The place remained the same even after all these years, the same heat emanating from the sands that welcomed her back. After Scorpius had helped her escape the life of imprisonment she had been forced into. And thus it was just logic that she came here to join him, as she once did to his father ages ago where she grew up along them as if she was one more of them. She arrived under the blanket of the night, calling for the Miroslav or perhaps anyone who might be on charge beside him. Perhaps she could even expand her here, perhaps. Only perhaps she could ask Vellen for a baby or her own. Unsure if anyone would ever see her as a mother. @Scorpius @Reverie if she wants.

There are few lions remaining from his childhood. @Zahra is one of them, having grown up in the Oasis under Scorpius’s father. The red girl is now a woman, no longer a prisoner, and as promised she arrives on the borders after the war. They've both grown, matured, since the last time they could speak properly - there had not been time in the war, after the battle to free her.

"Welcome home," the king says as he climbs the dune to greet her, "will you take a rank? Or would you rather serve as a member?" There is no question that she will be joining and staying, not even for a moment.

Feeling the sands after so many years filled her heart with a long-lost warmness she hadn't felt since then. It's warmth a welcome sensation to her healing body. After being captured and forced to eat the minimum she could be better in terms of substance but that didn't stop her from fighting for her freedom. And now she stood here, ready to go back where she had grown up those many years ago. A soft smile formed in her red lips. "Thank you, I am happy to be home," She checked him over. "You are at one piece, good." She mocked a bit as she walked in. No more hesitation. "Any you wish really," She wasn't a picky woman, whatever she was given she would accept. @Scorpius

"It wasn’t the worst fight… it was interesting." He’d had a bloodied ear and a sore rib, but it was nothing. What was important was securing her freedom, which they had.

"Gentry is open." He suggests, a brow arching, and he twists to walk at her side deeper into the Oasis. "Or challenge for something higher, if you wish." Perhaps she would want time to recover first - captivity was nothing to blink at, after all. "You should meet my children and my queen, Reverie." He's almost surprised the queen hasn't arrived herself, but the cubs could very well be keeping her busy.

"Where has the rest of your family gone? Should we be looking for them?"

"Indeed, easy fight considering those were Luther's dogs." Useless ones it seemed. But well thanks to it she was now free and on the doors of a place where she did wanted be in and with lions she did like and who she as always owed her life to. She thinks for a few instants. "Wherever you need me, I will be there. I'll challenge for it though, It's more meaningful to work for it." She commented smiling. "Congrats on your growing family. Hopefully one day I will too have my own." If Vellen was okay with it though. "I'll check them out." One day. "My family had been scattered for years now, so I had lost almost all contact with them." So there was no need to find what had been lost or so she thought. "What about yours?" Where had the Miroslavs gone. @Scorpius
