 Bronislawa was eager to begin her training as a priestess for the Stormborn. She would have her own place in the pride - not just because she was the warlords daughter. She would have power of her own.
Broni was acutely aware that the High Priestess was Aesir's mate, and she had no desire to subject herself or her father's wife to that training. Instead, she had approached one of the lower priestesses to start her apprenticeship. Broni was just waiting for her to arrive, just after dawn, on the high ground above the fjord.

 Unlike her half brother, Susu did not sleep until the rest of the pride began to rise. She slept little, it seemed, plagued by her visions in sleep in such a manner that she was often awake long before the sun, and went to sleep long after the sun. It suited her, though, since she took naps now and then. Today, she wouldn't get a nap, and would likely sleep early. The white lioness, a skin covering her shoulders, and thus, her wing markings. When the priestess spotted the juvenile, she quieted her steps. Only when she got close, did she speak. "You're up very early for somebody so young. Or are you up late..?" For some, it was never too early. For others... There was such a thing as too early. It was never too early for Susu... But then, it was never too late, either.

"Hello." Broni said, looking closely at the lioness. This looked like the one. She was one of the priestesses that her father had mentioned; this was one she could go to for training.
"I want to be a priestess. Dad said I should ask you to train me."

"To me, the warlord sent you...?" She sat down, placing a paw over her chest. "I feel honored!" She then leaned down close, getting in the younger lion's face. "Tell me, though... Have you ever... SEEN anything? Something you've no way of explaining knowing?" She got up, circling slightly. "For instance... I know that next week, an antelope will kick that singing ninny, Haki, in the face. The antelope won't survive the encounter, though, since Yu will be going with him." She paused. "Or..." Reaching up under her cape, she pulled the head of some poor dead rabbit out. "Do you know of some wonderful place to find sacrifices for the gods? Or the perfect herb to add to a meal?" Another pause. "That last one's more just for TASTE, though."

Broni's smile became a bit fixed, and she hoped the older lioness did not notice. What was she talking about - seeing things, and sacrifices and antelopes and herbs that weren't for taste? Broni just wanted to know the how and why of being a priestess, not all of this crazy stuff about seeing things and carrying dead rabbits around. Also, this lioness was REALLY getting into her personal space.
"No," she said, edging back from the Priestess. "I just want to be a priestess. I don't see anything like that stuff."

"Of course you don't." The lioness pinched the cub's cheek, a smile on her maw. "You haven't quite learned some of that yet..." Her tail flicked. "And I don't think you have the Sight. But not everybody does. Most don't. It's not a matter to fret about." Her tail went the other way, a black-tipped white blur attached to her rump. "But! What you WILL do.. Is learn some of the finer points of being a priestess that don't involve the Sight." She held the rabbit head up in her paw, examining it. "Hm, this one's no good anymore..." With an almost careless effort, she tossed it over her shoulder.

Bronislawa started to ask how she knew that the rabbit skull was no good, and why she was so keen on pinching her cheeks, and what exactly the Sight was, but it didn't matter. She could learn these finer points of priestessing from this crazy priestess. It would all work out. More or less.
"I am eager to learn what you have to teach me, even without the Sight."
She was trying to be diplomatic, really. Hopefully this lioness would get less touchy as the training went on. It wasn't really normal to be this touchy around other Stormborn.
"When do you want my training to begin?"
