Welcome to Gaia! ::

((*Edit,
totally thought someone had posted a reply before me, but I see it was you, Mims. LOL -FAIL- Shall I delete this and wait for someone else to post before re-posting?))



Momo took the male's advice and promptly removed her paw from the egg. She noticed that he had put on the necklace she gave him and suddenly felt as though a rock had been removed from her chest. She exhaled and pursed her lips, comfortable with having patched things up between the stranger.

When she saw that he had dug up an egg, too, Momo almost laughed out loud. But she sucked it back, careful not to do anything that might cause yet another social blunder on her part. She just grinned crookedly instead.

"Sure." She then took the lead and moved closer to the center of the oasis, much nearer to the others. Once she had found a comfortable spot, the lioness began to dig. When her paws hit stone, she pulled up yet another fragmented tablet. Hm, come to think of it, she was very close to the area where she first dug.

[[ OLOLO. I'm messing everything up. It's okay! Posts after me are alright else we'll just go mad. <33 ]]

Another religious item.... Kuza stared at the object sat in the bottom of her hole with no litter trepidation. The things gave her the willies thou she wasn't sure why. Under the bird's urging, who had already told her in no uncertain terms that his name was Aiolos (like the god of wind) she finally hitched the object out and carefully placed it beside the first, making sure both were well away from the two ruins. Still a little uncertain she turned back to her hole, but after contemplating it for along while, she turned and started anew one close by, making sure to move her little treasure trove across with her.

In her new spot, Moja began digging again. Her familiars were hissing and clucking unhappily. They were both babies and Moja, well versed in caring for infants, knew they weren't in any danger from the heat, but instead they were just complaining. She wouldn't make them wait out here too long, and if it got too bad, she'd take them home, but right now it could even be a learning experience for all of them! Moja dug with both front paws, claws out, and a smile on her face. This was the most physical activity she got on a normal basis. Caring for cubs wasn't all that hard. She pitched in with hunting once in a blue moon, and it felt good to stretch her muscles in the meantime.

The lioness felt her nails hit home and she moved to uncover what she'd hit. It looked like bone! How interesting. She pulled the bones out of the dirt and examined it.

It was lion bone. A skull. Moja made a face at the skull which seemed to be grinning back at her. It made her deeply uneasy, especially when Ayo thought it would be funny to slither in and wind his way between the eye holes. The lioness grunted at her snake and pulled him out with her teeth, gently, and put the skull down. The bird atop her head began chastising Ayo and they glared at one another. Her ears went back to her head and she grimaced at it, ignoring the bickering. Hmm. She covered it up with dirt and decided to dig in a different area.

It was a bit more effort in her new location, the dirt was drier ad therefor harder, but she wasn't going to let it beat her as she attacked it with her claws determinedly. Aiolos sat close by, hopping about with his wings extended, he wanted to help but his bird feet weren't designed to dig so instead he watched.

"There!! Look!!" He squawked suddenly, bouncing over and sticking his beak into the sand where he had seen something.

Kuza dug it out and placed it on the side. Another rune. Nudging it over with the other three she cocked her head, wondering about them. But eventually, with no insight coming to her, she resumed her digging all over again.

Meeper paused to ponder his luck. Is that why he couldn't find anything? He needed to improve it, and fast. While it would be nice to find something himself, it was good to watch others finding things. He bounced around ingesting here and there. Pausing to dig where his whim struck.

(could i have the white snake please? the Albino female?.. if i am allowed first pick, if not then whichever snake is <33)



Maddy the mongoose had heard someone talking about treasures, and she was very very interested. Her little nose quivered, and her paws twitched in excitement.. Treasure.. something she liked, she nibbled on a claw and scurried around the lions and other creatures, ignoring their treasures, no doubt they'd fight for them and she wasn't as big as they were. Scratching at the dirt in a free place she wondered what he might find. THERE! .. she found something shiny, and a lioness wanted it in return for something, she handed the trinket over to her and waited.
