This wasn’t her first time out of the firekin lands. She had joined the last jaunt as well. During that time she had visited many places including the place they were headed now. Back to the Mwezi. She was happy about this, excited almost at the thought of seeing the same lions again. She pondered if the two youngsters she had met last time would come and greet her again.
The group was stopped, resting and she was away in her own world thinking, day dreaming. Before they had left her aunt had informed her that she would be having a litter of cubs. This excited her. Her family was small, and she was happy to see it expand. She had thought about this deeply, the pride needed more blood and she had no permanent male in her life.
It was something to think about, she had time and she was enjoying the new adventure. The sands was where her home was, but it was fun to be out on an adventure.
