Welcome to Gaia! ::

Ugh. She was utterly exhausted. Who would've known that raising cubs would be such hard work? There was the feeding and the playing and the watching out for. It didn't exactly help that she'd had six cubs, but she had a feeling that she'd still have been this exhausted even with two or three. And of course, not only was this her first litter, but she was raising them alone. A sigh escaped the lionness' maw - she could make it easier. She could tell Pembe. But no, she wasn't going to. She could do this by herself.

It was a bright, sunny day in the Pridelands, and the warm rays of the sun on her fur felt relaxing. Laying herself flat on top of Pride Rock, a low humming of pleasure vibrated from Azriell, as she closed her eyes, reveling in the warm, fuzzy feeling that crept over her. She'd left the cubs with a close friend of hers for the next hour, so there were no worries there. The first time since she'd had the cubs she had alone, and she planned to enjoy it. And relaxing here in the warm sun was the perfect way to do so.

Mchengo had brought up five cubs, all of which were now adolescent however she hadn't brought them up on her own. She had Chipo and her siblings and father lived in the pride as well. She was without doubt a very lucky lioness. She had such an awesome life and seemed to not care all that much about things going wrong. She had never really seen the bad side of anything and nothing had changed.

She had found herself today just wandering about. She hadn't much to do other then to go hunting. So that is what she decided to do. Hunting sounded awesome. However as she moved around the pridelands a lioness who looked younger then herself but looked ever so tired.

"Hello!"

She smiled as she ran over towards the female in her normal cheery happy way. However as she got closer the female seemed to look sad and tired and Mchengo couldn't help but feel sorry for her even though she wasn't sure what was wrong with the female ahead of her.
