How long had it been since she joined Tianxia, she thought as she walked around the North house. She had joined the pride after feeling completely homesick. At first she felt like an outsider, feeling like she was always being judged, but she slowly adjusted and the pride started feeling at home.
Since joining she had been focused on her training, making sure she would be a good soldier for the pride. The only time she really allowed herself to get to know anyone was while she was sparring. It occurred to her that she really had no friends in the pride. After being in the pride so long and making it her home, she made the decision to make a friend.
The perfect friend would be a blank slate, someone who she didn't know and didn't know her. Someone from a different house would be ideal. That way they would have no idea that she obsessed over training and they wouldn't instantly think was odd. She grinned to herself, ready and determined to meet someone new!
