It had been quite the journey for Sawa so far. Having left her home on her quest for her new name, she had been informed by a passing old pride member that there was no need to go back - everyone had moved on. This might have bothered some, but Sawa had taken it in stride. Along her meandering through the rogue lands she had acquired two adorable little cubs to take care of, although she had to admit they were starting to get a little big and bold for her tastes. Perhaps leaving them be when they were old enough to hunt would be the best course of action.But for now, Sawa was content to roam with them and explore. She had yet to find a place she didn't like, although she preferred areas with lots of plants to commune with. She had been following her nose for the past few days, tracking a rather salty smell that promised lots of new things to discover. And indeed, after tucking the cubs up in a hollowed out tree to let them nap, Sawa discovered a thick forest where that salty smell seemed to be caught.
Curious, the lioness made her way through the trees, pausing to speak softly to a bush or a sapling. The smell of lions was strong here on top of the salt and she had the suspision she might be trespassing on pride lands, but the easy going lioness knew that if it was a hostile pride she would have encountered someone already. So, carefree as always, Sawa pressed on undeterred.
