 When Moema was first woven into existence, she didn't know much of anything. She tended to spend her time wandering around the capital, familiarizing herself with the flow of the lake against the shore and the rivers that led out from it. Yet she found that once she had learned all the capital city had to offer, she began to travel the territory around the tribe. Soon she had explored everything her tribe had to offer her, for the livelihood of the Water Tribe was constant, whereas, she suspected, the rest of the world was ever-changing.
She didn't know if this was true, of course, but she knew from the deepest part of her heart, that she wanted to find out. She would later learn the term for this would be river-minded, whereas those of her tribe who were happy to remain at the heart of her tribe by the lake, where appropriately named lake-minded.
Not long after that, she would also learn of the Storm-Walkers and the Still-Watchers. Time would pass and with it bringing her uneasy conclusion that she fit into neither of these groups, becoming instead, a simply content to travel. Her trade was to make others smile and to gather what knowledge she could about the world in exchange for knowledge about her own tribe or even herself, if they cared to know it.
And so, here she was, long after she had been initially woven. She had returned from traveling through the Earth Tribe, where she had encountered a Nan by the name of Stella, who's trade came in crystals and gems. They had spent a great deal of time speaking, but when Moema had begun to feel the pull to return home, as she occasionally did, she bid her friend adieu and returned to the capital.
She was still getting used to being home, thinking of her travels as she circled the lake, the sunlight warming her fur. Perhaps, she thought, her head in the clouds, she would try to visit the Light Tribe next. She heard their forest was breath-taking and she should like to experience something so marvelous as that. Not once did she think that a new adventure may lay in wait for her right in her own home tribe.WC: 379

Virag had finally reached full adulthood, and as such, had decided to branch off from his family for the time being. He went back to visit often, but he wanted to get out, see the world on his own. For now, he decided he would travel through the rest of the Water Tribe territory, to learn all that he could from his own kind. He did not get to explore much as a cub, mostly having to stay home with his family, but since he had become more independent, it was obvious what he wanted to do first. Having traveled already through some of the smaller towns and villages, Virag had decided to take a few days to relax. The lake called to him, and as such, he decided to take a bit of a dip in the water. Swimming came so easily to him, large paws churning the water with relative ease. His aqua eyes took in the surroundings from just above the surface of the water, the only other things breaching the top being his ears and nose. A little ways off, the Tah could spy a figure padding alongside the lake. Slowly, he started towards the figure, strong paws pulling him along. When he finally got within a few feet of her, he made his way up the bank, pulling himself into a full standing position. The Tah did not bother with shaking out his pelt. Not yet. He was afraid he could get water on the figure before him, which he realized was a Nan. A pretty one, at that. The Nan's pelt matched his own rather easily. A vibrant carnation pink, with what looked like a floral marking or two, and some beautiful swirls. Identical themes to his pelt, something he had not seen much of outside of his own family. A majority of other Water Tribers had very watery colors, aside from a few. Yet nothing quite like this. A warm smile crossed his maw as he looked down at the slightly smaller Nan. "Hello there. What brings you all the way out here today?" WC: 351

Moema enjoyed looking at the lake as she walked around it. She sometimes considered swimming in it, for she enjoyed the way her fur became slick and cool to the touch. Yet, today was not a day for swimming, she had decided. No, today was a day to enjoy the sights around her. So she found herself studying the lake and noticed that the surface seemed to be rippling. Squinting her eyes, she saw someone swimming across the lake.
She took a step towards the shore, her ears thrust forward with curiosity, which was heightened when the other began to swim towards her. As the other got closer, she found he was a Tah and she smiled brightly at his colors, which nearly mirrored her own coat.
Then he addressed her and she found herself drawn to his voice. It was music to her ears and pleasantly rich. She found herself leaning towards him and did not pull back once she made her realization.
"I'm sightseeing today." She informed the other. "I've not been to the capital in some time, so I'm back to the lake to see if anything's changed." She smiled up at the Tah. "So far, it's much the same, though I must say the Tahs have gotten more handsome since I've been gone." She remarked, her gaze flitting up and down his figure, before she met his eyes again. "My name is Moema. To whom do I have the pleasure of addressing?"WC: 346
