Safiya, a tan and tawny lioness with blue-green eyes, deeper tan on her underbelly, brown speckles under her eyes, yellow-white eyeshadow, there was also brown fur inside her ears, and she lives in the middle of the Outlands with her mother Sauda, her sisters Kunaya, Anya, and Tiffu, her twin brother Achi, and her older brother Loki.
Safiya was playing tug-a-war with a root from a dried up tree, behind her Kunaya (a ginger and yellow lioness with purple eyes), Anya (a orange and ginger lioness cub with tuft of hair on her head, freckles, and blue-purple eyes), Tiffu (a golden and white lioness cub with blue-purple eyes and a thick dark brown line from her forehead to her tail), and Achi (a slender brown lion cub with a pale tan underbelly, paws, and inside ears, green-blue eyes, and a black tuft of hair on his head). The four of them were play fighting with sheathed in claws.
Safiya saw her scrawny brother (Loki is scrawny dark brown, growing black mane that's covered in sand and mud, white under paws, dark green eyes, and scars on his shoulders that are mostly scarred from Sauda) walking and muttering under his breath as he walked towards the dried tree.
Mischief flashed in Safiya's eyes as she pulled the root backwards and tightened her jaws on the dead root. She bared her teeth as she grinned, her tail flicked back and forth with eagerness.
When Loki stopped by the tree, then he start scratching his back with his right back leg.
With a flash of mischief, Safiya let go of the root and Loki shrieked as the brand whacked him in the face and he fell over on top of a anthill. He started screaming and shrieking as the ants started to bite him.
Safiya, Kunaya, Tiffu, and Achi bursted out laughing about their pathetic brother as Loki rubbed his butt against the ground.
"Why did you that?" yeowled Loki at Safiya.
"Because it's hilarious!" laughed Safiya and the others.
"Indeed," chuckled Sauda's best friend, Yafeu.
Yafeu is a long-limbed and slender lioness sandy-yellow with a white underbelly, paws, and eyeshadow, pale blue eyes, scars on her paws, and a notched left ear.
Loki was growling under his breath, and when he looked at Safiya he let out a soft hiss and his dark green eyes flashed with anger. Safiya bared her fangs, unsheathed claws gripped tightly into the dry ground, and she fluffed up her tawny golden fur. Safiya hissed and her eyes flashed with amusement and anger.
But then everyone fell silent, Safiya closed her mouth, sheathed in her claws, and smoothed her coat. Safiya turned around, confused when she saw their mother, Sauda walking from the south with four fearsome lionesses known as Sylva (a dark gray lioness), Hazil (a sandy-yellow lioness), Nani (a tan lioness), and Izik (a light gray and tan lioness).
Sauda has a tan-gray coat with a straight brown stripe from the center of her forehead down to the middle of her shoulders, cream muzzle, paws, and underbelly, black eyebrows, red eyes, white eyeshadow, dark brown upper eye patches, a pointy, black triangular nose, and a notched right ear.
Sauda and the lionesses were carrying dead and freshly killed gazelle. While the other lionesses brang their catches to the Outland Rock (also as the halfway ruined rock like tower, not sure what it's called), Sauda brang her huge gazelle towards them.
Anger burned like red flames in her red eyes and she tightened her jaws on the gazelle, which made the gazelle start to bleed.
Then Sauda dropped the gazelle in front of Safiya, Kunaya, Anya, Tiffu, and Achi.
Loki stalked slowly towards the gazelle with narrowed, hungry eyes, a twitching tail, and drooling jaws with hunger behind Sauda's back. But Sauda scented Loki stalking behind her, so she turned around and swatted Loki away hard on the side. Loki cried out in shock and pain as he hited hard on to the dry ground.
Safiya sniffed Sauda with twitching whiskers; their mother smelled different, Sauda smelled like the gazelles, new and fresh green grass, fresh and clean water, and surprisingly other lions.
"Mother?" asked Safiya, Sauda looked down at her. "Where did you hunt?"
Sauda gave her annoyed look, but Sauda sighed and rolled her red eyes.
"We went to the Pride Lands for hunting, but once you're older you'll understand." explained Sauda.
