Recently... Konani has started to come across rocks that are scratched and scarred in odd ways. Seeing similar patterns in the scratches, the lioness has begun to follow them - convinced this is a mystery that she needs to solve!
In the Past... Konani came from a small group of lions - not really big enough to be called a pride - that lived along the shores of the sea. At one point they had been a pride, but the plague that ravaged Africa in the past shrank their numbers so severely that they may never recover. Also, as a result of this, the group shunned any mention of their past - not speaking of it, and refusing to tell stories of that time to the young, if they asked. They also discouraged such questions, sometimes even casting out cubs who asked too many of them.
However, Konani was smart enough not to let this happen to her - though she did want answers. She was always a curious cub and she liked to push the limits. She would ask questions up until the point when adults started looking at her suspiciously and then back off and be "good" for weeks at a time before starting up again.
But no matter how many times she did this, no one would answer her, so eventually... once she had learned to take care of herself more or less - Konani left her group and family to seek answers on her own. She wanted to know what had happened to her own group in the past and also perhaps what had happened to others.
