Lailah was wandering around the borderlands, hoping to catch sight of a rogue lion. A certain roge lion. The adolescent's mother was pregnant again, by some random rogue lion who was no member of the pride. Lailah had privately determined that the father of the soon-to-be cubs was probably the same male who had fathered her and her siblings. In her mind, she'd built up a story of how this mysterious lion was her mother's secret beloved mate and he couldn't join the pride because he was in a relationship with this jealous lioness who wouldn't let him go, but he managed to sneak off to the Mwezi'Johari borderlands and be with Aysu, who was his True Love, but he still had to go back to that awful woman every time.
So she was going to use her own and her siblings' appearance to try and find him. Well, to find him before she had to go back home for dinner at least.
So far, the adolescent wasn't having much luck. She hadn't even seen one rogue lion, let alone her father.

Machholz stretched out at the boarders of her brother's pride. She had known he was here for some time but had hesitated joining. She wanted to find adventure, to have some sort ... something before she settled into a pride, however... She never got that. She never once got what she wanted. It didn't matter to her, honestly. At one point, Mach probably did care, but she was at the point in her life she wanted to just... Machholz didn't even know what she wanted to do anymore. She just wanted to see her brother and have somewhere safe for once.
Looking around, she managed to spot a white female nearby and arched a brow. She wasn't quite an adult yet, it looked like. "Hello there," her voice rang out, strong and clear. Machholz was a stubby lioness, but because she was fat, but because she was muscular. Like her brother.

"Baba'nyota, yes. We're littermates, actually. I wandered off while he joined. I wanted to try to find some kind of adventure out there. Not so much fun by yourself, I think." She smirked and laughed a little bit more before listening to the younger one again.
"Oh, that's wonderful! Congratulations on that, dear. I hear it's a very impressive role, Shaman. You were just walking? Helps clear the head," she gave the girl a wink and then laughed. "What's your name? I told you mine and it's only polite, isn't it?" Chuckling a little more she decided to stretch out, sighing heavily. She really wanted to see her brother, get a den and sleep, but she could spare a few more moments talking to someone in the pride. They could give her the information she didn't quite know yet.

"Sorry, no," Lailah answered. "He could be anywhere - on patrol, talking to the King and Queen, sleeping in his den...I don't know at all." Mostly because she'd never actually met the big one-eyed lion, she'd just seen him and knew who he was.
"Well, the Shaman's the most important lioness after the Queen. She leads the pride in worship and she initiates all the former rogues. So you'll get to meet her!" the adolescent paused and considered that. It seemed that if this was the case, she might as well shorten things up.
"Say, why don't I take you to her? You'll also have to meet the King and Queen, of course, but it's almost time for my lessons anyway!" she explained to Machholz. It would kill two birds with one stone, keep her out of her mother's way and generally work out well for everyone involved.
She could come back here and continue her search another day.
