Jini was so happy for the lion, she pranced her front too feet a little. She was glad someone was so interested in her ways of life, and glad that someone was so happy. Jini herself was a happy lioness, so she was excited to meet someone who seemed to match her in that. "Great! I'm sure you'll love it!"
Jini thought seriously for a moment. She wasn't really sure she knew how to get back to the swamps after such a long time. Ever the optimist, though, she was certain it was going to work out in the end. She'd find a way to get home. Someone had to know how to get there. "Sure, why not? I'm leaving pretty soon. Maybe not today, though. Can you wait a little while?" She smiled brightly. She was going to leave soon, but she would like to spend at least a little more time with her new found family first.

"Of course!" He said happily, "Yes, I can wait for a while. I can meet you here when you're ready, if you want?" He offered, taking note of his surroundings. "I'll just come here every day around this time, okay? And then when you're ready you can just come find me and we'll go off on an adventure!" He said enthusiastically, his eyes sparkling as he thought about all the exciting things that would happen once they left.
Cha was thrilled that she was willing to travel with him. He stood up and with a bounce in his step started to turn around, "I'm going to start getting ready for the adventure right away!" For him, 'getting ready' meant 'practicing his hunting skills on small creatures so that he could survive without a pride to feed him', so he had a bit of work to do over the next few days. "I'll see you soon, alright?"

Jini also looked around them, taking in as many landmarks as she could. She wasn't from around here, so it would be a little bit harder for her to remember their meeting place. She was sure, however, if she tried hard enough she'd manage it. Worst case scenario she'd just start from the middle of the pride and work her way out until she found him. Maybe her father would know the area better than her, if she could just describe a couple landmarks. She picked out some rocks and a tree, trying to memorize the shapes of them. "Alright! I'll come back here as soon as I can. I want to spend a little more time with my family." Of course, she was beginning to think that she'd be back here sometime. It was hard for her to imagine losing the family she had just met by never coming back to see them all again.
"Okay! I'm sure you'll do great!" She was excited for him, remembering back to the days before her own pilgrimage had started. Of course, she'd also been scared back then. She was so young, after all, and she had been the first of her litter of six to leave their home. Though it had been nerve-racking, it had also been exciting. Throughout her journey, there had been an undercurrent of electric joy and jumpy excitement. For Cha, though, he was older than she had been. So she was sure it would be easier for him to do this. "Yes! I will see you soon." She nodded firmly and smiled before standing, shaking off the dust, and walking back in the general direction she thought her father's home was.
