As much as Faatina enjoyed being back in the Bahari lands, she sometimes found herself missing life as a rogue. The unpredictability of it all had been enjoyable, really - never knowing what was around the bend. In the Bahari everything had started to feel safe again. Familiar. Nothing was new, save for the few interactions she had with unfamiliar lions, but even those were infrequent. She needed something new. Which was why she had started wandering out, every once in a while, to the bordering lands. Just to explore a bit more.
The last time she'd been out this way, Faatina had joined a group of Kizingo'zaa and Bahari lions alike in search for some missing comes. She smiled at the memory of the mother reuniting with her lost sons and pressed on, further into the roguelands. Glancing around, she confirmed that nothing so exciting would be happening to her today. It was just a normal, routine day of adventuring. Or so she thought. Having not quite reunited with all of her family since she'd been back, it would come as no surprise that she wasn't the only one misplaced by the semi-recent disasters. But it would come as a surprise that they were still alive, and just around the corner.
Excited Apathy
