Ninon missed home. She missed the swamps. She missed the mountain. She missed the spirits. She missed everything. And of course, she'd not seen Fleance in forever, so she couldn't hide from the world for a little in his fur. Instead, she found herself staring at her reflection in a small pool branched off from a river, trying to figure out her dreams of late and how it had all gone wrong. Where she and her family were to go from there. She was the matriarch, it was up to her to figure out a new home for them. It was up to her to divine the will of the spirits for them, to find their new path. And all she was getting was water. Water and flashes of familiar coats of fur, fur she'd given birth to.
Letting out an entirely unlady-like, frustrated noise, she swiped the water with a paw and growled. Spirits, she hated all this uncertainty and strangeness and frustration.

She'd gotten word that her mother had moved again. Not far, just a bit south of where she had settled, but...moved, nonetheless. Imani had told her, her aunt very serious and uncertain of what all was going on. But whatever the case was, Pwani'wingu had found her paws turned to the direction of her mother's new home.
She hadn't expected the familiar form by the river as she made her way to the sea. A form she was still...less than happy with, all those turns of the seasons later. Frowning, Pwani was glad her mate wasn't with her, instead settled a bit away, resting. The lioness cleared her throat as she approached the other, frown still on her maw.
"So. Looking for another cub to con a female out of."

Oh. Oh she had not heard that name in so very long. She took a deep breath and shook her head, at least glad that Pwani'wingu had at least some sense of familial duty. "I am known as 'Ninon' now, Pwani. As for why I am here..." She debated trying to pull another deal from her in exchange for the full story, but...Ninon knew not to push her luck. "The Jini-msemi are no more. There was a drought, then a great fire, and then a landslide on our new home and we...we decided the spirits were no longer happy with us as a pride. So now I am trying to discern where the spirits will me and mine." It was not an easy task. It was not a pleasant one. But she had to find them a new home. Had to make sure everyone was safe and well-cared for. She was the matriarch, and, more than that, she needed to make sure at least one seer of Fleance's was safe and sound, away from where his sibling could possibly snatch.
