Siti smiled at the ocean and moved to lead the way back the rogue lands. "It hard to believe my search for a pride has come to an end. It is all to much to believe. I have been searching for such a long time."
Siti moved across toward the trees and padded through them, the same way they had come until she was back in the grasslands and lead the way toward her den. It was small, but big enough for for the three of them without being crowded. It was made in the tall grasses by a that had been knocked over. She stood at the mouth and called in.
"Udo, Korrin, are you awake?"
[Would you like for them to join the rp or should we do another?]

Following behind Siti, the lioness couldn't help but smile more. To think how an exile could have such a great outcome. She and Kam lost the pride they felt was home, so there could be one created for Siti. The journey was well worth it. One day, the other lioness and her own family may hear of it if she ever wondered about the creation of her home.
The closer they got to the den, the more she hung back. The young cubs deserved to see the lioness they knew and trusted first, meeting a stranger first thing in the morning can be disconcerting.

Siti entered the den when she did not receive and answer from the two that should have been in the den. When she came she motioned for Sen to follow her.
"They are still asleep and since we have traveled a lot lately I would rather not move them. Would you mind carrying one of them for me?"
Siti stopped in front of the two sleeping forms and smiled at the two. She had really fallen in love with the two while they traveled. They were both to sweet. Siti moved to pick up Udo who was bigger than Korrin and looked to Sen.

"Of course," carrying a cute little cub is no trouble at all. Waiting, she watched the lady pick up one of the little ones. Slinking in, the red lioness nosed the other cub gently just so she could get a good patch of the neck scruff. Jaws that have been used to tear flesh from bone and strangle kill to death, now were gentle hands. Lifting the cub gently, she moved back out of the den and stood. All her movements were geared to make sure she didn't jolt the little one she held.
Staying put, she waited for Siti to move out so they could make their way back and settle the little ones before they even know they moved.

Siti waited until Sen had Korrin situated, then moved out of the den. She headed back over the path now twice traveled, heading toward her new den. Her heart was light and she was very happy. She figured the next time she traveled the path it would be to hunt. She had barely settled in but already she had not desire to leave.
The journey up into the new den was made in silence, but is warm and corfortable. Obviously one would not want to talk with a mouth full of cub, especially one that was sleeping. Siti knew she would need to stay in the den until they woke, she wouldnt want them to be to shocked at being moved.
It was not to long before she was at the mouth of the den she had just been given and she stopped for a moment resting. Then she looked to Sen to let her know it was okay for her to enter before heading in with Udo, going almost to the back of the den and lying him down.
She back up and turned to Sen, "Thank you so much. You are very kind and I am happy to have found a place for my cubs and myself in Simbafutaji."

A cub was always a pleasant weight, her own were grown too big to be handled like this. She'd miss holding them, but would one day have more cubs to call her own, by birth or choice.
When the signal was given that she could enter the den, the young red lioness did just that. Watching where Siti laid down the cub she was holding, Sen headed to the same place. Before she could stop herself, she was already moving her paws to make a bed like she did for her own young ones when she had the chance. It was nothing more than building a little mound of sand and flattening it a little to make it nice and soft.
Laying the cub down, she moved back towards the entrance, so that Siti was between them and still likely the first thing the cubs would see besides their new home. "You are very welcome, Siti. Rest now, once everyone is fully settled and your litter is birthed, the rest of the official joining process will be addressed, welcome home." A show of bonding, she reached out and nuzzled her cheek to the lady's before fully exiting the den, "I'll come get you when the hunt is brought in, but if you need anything, don't hesitate to ask anyone you see here." The pride was there to support each other, forever and always.

Siti smiled at Sen and nodded when she was told to rest. She knew in the coming night she would not be resting much, but she would rest as much as she could until then. Siti was a bit surprised at the show of affection but so no signed of it being unwanted or offending.
"Thank you. I willl rest and if I needed something I will be sure to ask."
Siti watched Sen leave before moved over to Korrin and Udo and settling down for a nap. Later in the afternoon she would introduce them to the members of the pride and familiarize herself with the pride as well. Then she would retrieve the pelts from the old make shift den in the rogue land and she would be ready for the birth. She just hoped Udo and Korrin would be okay with staying with another member of the pride until the cubs had finished entering the world.
