Satomi smiled,
"It is nice to meet you Aali!" She said happily, after all it was nice to meet him. A sultan he might be but even so, she didn't look up at anyone, sultan or not. She was however curious to see the pride and so there was no doubt about that and so when he offered to show her around she was very keen.
"Sounds good to me. I would be delighted to go on a walk and have a drink." She was rather excited about this pride experience even if it wasn't going to be that long a stay. It was still new and exciting!

Aali nodded and moved to escort her further into the prides lands and headed towards the lake they made their home beside. The land was mostly open the sparse stunted trees and grass offering only a little shade. Rocky outcroppings seemed to help form most of the dens and they all faced the lake as it stretched on and on providing for their pride.
He smiled at how friendly she sounded hopefully she would be open minded as well. "Here each male is called a Pad, and each Pad is in charge of the well being and happiness of his harem, a harem is made up of several females and their cubs. Females are either Kajira, troublemakers who are not trustworthy, Banu, females who are loyal and useful, and Beybanu, who are in charge of making sure things within the harem run smoothly...there is only one Beybanu in each harem." He explained for her watching for her reaction.

She listened as they walked, taking in the surroundings and what he was saying.
"Does that mean I am going to be having your cubs?" She was curious as she had never thought about motherhood before, it wasn't really something she considered. She had never been a mother, though of course she knew it was the duty of females to carry cubs, to bring them up. She pondered on it for a while, after all it was normal, just not something she had considered.
"It sounds interesting, thats for sure."

Aali looked at her mildly startled by the question before slowly smiling and relaxing, maybe she really was open minded. He didn't recall mentioning anything about each banu having cubs, but of course most did it was how the pride grew and how new banu were born for a new generation of Pads.
"If you desire, then yes it would be your Pads honor and duty to ensure you have cubs." He looked at her curiously wondering at her small frame and how capable she might be as a mother. She almost looked to fragile for the task, but of course he knew that females possessed all types of unique strengths and attributes behind pretty facades.

She wondered about this for a minute or two. She wouldn't mind being a mother... but... hmm she would have to think about it.
"Okay. I will think about it."
In the end it depended on how long she wished to stay in the pride and she wasn't sure she wanted to stay in it for that long. She would stay long enough to see what it was like and then she would continue on her way.
"Though I don't know that I could, I shan't be staying long after all."

Ah, and it had been going so well...she seemed to already be considering departure. What was wrong with him? This would be the second female he allowed to evade him in such a way. Perhaps time spent with the other banu would convince her to stay and enjoy the idyllic life they led.
"You could extend your stay, I think motherhood might suit you." He relaxed as they reached the lake and bent to drink. "All our dens face the lake, the view and access to water is something special to us, since our ancestors never saw such a thing." He explained, his voice still gentle despite his inner turmoil.

She listened of course and wondered why it was he was so keen for her to stay.
"Motherhood might suit me but I am not so sure whether it would be fair on the cubs. I shan't stay here to see them to adulthood and so it means it would be unfair to do such things." She was sure that what she said was true. She loved the idea of having cubs one day but she wasn't sure she would be staying here for long enough.
"Lakes are pretty..."

Well she seemed intent on leaving them after a brief visit, Aali didn't think a female had ever just popped into the pride for a visit without being captured. He looked her over again trying to assess if she actually could escape...but the idea of trying to force her to stay some unhappy kajira wasn't something he desired. No better to let her go, perhaps she would return after all once she realized how pleasant their life was here.
"Yes that would be unfair, but surely you would stay to raise your own cubs? Provide them a home and loving family, it might be nice for you too." He added, but her mind seemed quite made up.
"Well you can think about it, for now let me take you to my den, you can get some rest there I'm sure your tired from your travels?"

She listened and contemplated.
"I will think about it." She wouldn't completely dismiss the idea but then again she wasn't sure that it would be a good idea either. She would see how the pride worked to see if it was worth it.
"Rest? Oh yes that would be wonderful!" She smiled happily at him and allowed him to lead her to where his den was. This was an interesting pride and one she did indeed find interest in. She just wasn't one for staying in the same place.

Aali chuckled softly, at least she was excited about something and he certainly didn't lack in hospitality. With a smile he moved towards the den intent on at least showing her the best of the pride before she chose to stay or go. He was going to have to work on his overly compassionate nature though it seemed.
He moved into his large den and smiled with a sweep of his paw. "You are welcome as long as you wish my lady." With that he padded back a bit away from the sunlight and sprawled contentedly.
(Fin, or you can pop one more post in to finish it up <3)
