Description

"Thank you, sister," Sarabi whispered. Mheetu was so small, and Mtoto and Mosi were still nursing; the tiny cub would fit in all too well.

Sarafina would've thanked her, if not for the violent sobs she tried to keep contained. If the hyenas heard them- well, she wouldn't dare think about it. Mheetu was just so small. Nala stared like she didn't understand- how could she? And what kind of answers could Sarafina provide? This was the best option- the only option.

Naanda just pressed in tight, nuzzling her sister. She wasn't sure when she'd see either of them again. Scar's reign was unpredictable; frightening. There were other cubs too, older than Mheetu. What would happen to them, Naanda couldn't say. But they couldn't all come.

~~~

Simba's cousins feature in "Simba's Choir" and their mother is a golden lioness; I've elected her to be Naanda. Mheetu is an early concept brother for Nala, that I've wormed my own little story for.

I've finally worked out my colour charts in a way that I'm mostly happy with. And look, the lionesses look like lionesses! Cubs; still working on it, but... doesn't that look so much better than where we were?
