 The young white cub had gone wandering again, she was never with her parents, always looking for new lions, learning stories. She was a curious creature, there was nothing to doubt that.
Her redish paws moved on the hot sand, wandering over the dunes hoping that someone would be around. Eventually she gave up and headed towards the only place she knew for water and shade, lions always went there at some point in the day or they would die! She would wait there.

There in the shade was Azachamorel, who had dragged the remains of an oryx with her. Though the lioness had eaten her fill when she'd taken it down, she had brought what remained near to the water. She would wait here and cool off, relax a little, before continuing on to the dens.
Perhaps she'd have the luck of running into others here and be spared dragging the corpse any farther.

Ny took her time but she reached the water and shade where she saw the other. She paused a while and let her eyes scan the lioness and then the meal she had with her.
She smiled and then walked down to the waters edge ignoring both lioness and kill to take a drink, she wouldn't be the first to start a conversation, she saw no reason to do such a thing.
She took her time lapping up the water, as if trying to do it in slow motion. She wanted to make herself look elegant but then trying to drink as slowly as she was would do no such thing.

It was certainly odd to see a mostly white cub...but she did have the telltale red on her, if only in small amounts. And Aza very much doubted that any cub who wasn't Firekin would have survived all the way to here.
The huntress returned her smile and watched her drink, waiting until she looked as though she'd finished to say anything. "Good afternoon."

The cub looked up and sat down, "Afternoon."
Ny's golden eyes flickered to the kill and then back at the lioness. "May I ask your name?" She never gave her name first, was a strange thing but she felt like it was necessary to know a stranger before they knew her.

The small motion of the cub's gaze flicking to the kill caught her attention, and she smiled. "Help yourself, if you're hungry."
"I'm Azachamorel," the lioness answered. "And you are?"

Ny thanked her with a smile and wandered to the kill. "I am Nyuope'Moto though you may call me Ny, most do." She took a bite of the kill and sat chewing on it for a while, staining her white maw red.
"My parents are Teleka and Kijinga, both descedents of the royal line." She mumbled while she was eating, she never normally poke of how her parents were related but it seemed to sound good, she had royal blood from both parents!

"An honor to meet you, Ny, daughter of Teleka and Kijinga," she responded, a pleased smile upon her maw as the cub accepted her kill. This providing role suited her well.
"My parents were Xamach and Fiametta, both Blood hunters," Aza returned the same information Nyuope'Moto had given her. "I haven't met your distinguished parents yet, since I've just returned, but I'm sure I will."
