Sighing slightly Li looked down at the small pile of sand he's combed out of his tail before stowing the comb in his pocket and making his way to a shallow alcove in the rocks where he quickly changed into his swimming trunks.Â Carrying his clothes in his hands he header over to the other K tribe cats and set them on the sand nearby before heading into the water and relaxing with a sigh, "Glad to see you're doing better, even if you did apparently ignore my advice about staying off the leg." Xha'li said flicking an ear at K'luha.

Nauta Lyehga · **08-16-2014, 10:48 PM**

K'iara looked to the sands, her ears twitching as she listened closely to the small pink haired girl's voice. It was grating to the huntress. Dripping with sweetness and innocence she should not have retained past this age. The girl was too shy, too frail, too sweet, too flashy with her silly cute clothing and silly pink hair. All K'iara wanted to do when she looked at K'mih was to break her in two so she could feel pain and see how foolish she was. How could the king of brooding bring forth the daughter of sweetness? And now the hell was K'mih's hair even pink when K'yohko's was purple? K'iara would never understand it.

Deciding she'd had enough to the pink haired mongrel, K'iara pushed off the cart and stalked over behind K'ile to butt into their conversation. She swung an open hand to K'ile's back in an effort to pat his back hard, shooting K'mih a toothy grin.

"Of course K'ile's challenging Yohko. No one's challenged him in years and he's getting too comfortable. K'ile's right, without a challenger there's no point to being a Nunh. We haven't had a woman pregnant in five years either. It's about time someone else knocked some kids up. Say K'mih, you're of age. Think you'd like to have some of K'ile's kitten?" K'iara snorted, still giving a toothy grin to K'mih. Albeit with K'iara's raspy voice, she might have sounded and looked more intimidating than she really intended. All she wanted was to fluster the girl and watch her run off like a windup toy.

K'luha chuckled cheerfully as her niece ( she was quickly accustomed to calling her daughter however ) joined her in the pools. She ducked and moved, trying to avoid the water but laughed as it wet her anyway. Dripping with water, K'luha's miscolored eyes turned to Xha'li when he spoke up. Although she had been with K'ile when they picked him up she vaguely remembered him. The entire trip had been a haze, and the last proper thing she could really remember was all the way back in Ul'dah. She smiled coyly to the boy and leaned back. Even being so sick and losing too much weight, K'luha retained her shapely curvaceous figure.

"Hey, a girl's got to move about a little bit. Besides, K'zhumi gave me the okay and Tahj helped me over. You ought to cool it." K'luha giggled mischievously, sharply splashing a large wave of water at Xha'li's head to accentuate her 'cool it' pun.

Xha'li Moui · **08-16-2014, 11:57 PM**

Xha'li grinned and laughed as the water washed over him.Â "Oh don't worry, I'm quite capable of relaxing.Â Just an unfortunate tendency I picked up from my Master while studying conjury at Still Glade Fane; he had even less sympathy for people who went and got hurt though ignoring a healers orders or suggestion."Â Splashing K'luha back Xha'li continued chuckling, "And I can still act like the kit I'll be for several more moons yet when my healing duties aren't in the way."

The young girlÂ had remained calm at the confirmation that K'ile was, indeed, going to challenge her father. What made her eyes raise andÂ open wider were K'iara's words; intimidating, challenging, and highly unwelcome. K'mih looked troubled, losing her voice for a moment. Even if K'ile was much older than her father, it was a fact thatÂ he would be her Nunh if he won the challenge.Â What was no fact wasÂ that the new Nunh would accept a miqo'te like her, however.

Her gaze lowered again. Out of sight, her fingers squeezed each other in nervous movements.

"The NunhÂ must be challenged," she agreed,Â managing to sound calm again. So calm her voice didn't raise much. "I only have a favour to ask..."

K'mih looked into K'ile's eyes, with both determination and innocence, before she spoke again. "Will you wait untilÂ the Nunh recovers from his wounds?"

Izmina · **08-17-2014, 04:46 AM**

K'tahjha was happy to see her aunt up and around and having a good time. Smiling happily to herself Tahj busies herself thoroughly wetting and cleansing her hair. Luha's giggling distracts her from her bath and she looks up in surprise at the two adults playing in the water like cubs. With a mischievious grin Tahj scoops up as much water as she can attempting to drench both adults.

Twinflame · **08-17-2014, 05:20 AM**

"K'yohko Nunh gets one week. Just until we get to the new camp site." K'ile replied, deliberately ignoring K'iara's teasing. He was glad that K'mih was as well. "K'yohko's primary role in the tribe is being a father. Besides that, the most important job he has is to defend his title against Tias. That's it. He should not have gotten himself injured. He let his guard down, and if he loses because of that, he deserves to." His ears twitched, and he quirked his features. He tried to soften his tone. "Anyway. I hope he is at full strength when I fight him. I don't want him to lose too easily or get injured in the fight."

Clover · **08-17-2014, 06:27 AM**

It might have been half a second, maybe less. With her face still slightly lowered, only K'mih's eyes raised for a small fraction of a second to look at K'ile. It was like an ephemeral sigh, like a blurry vision you couldn't quite determine if it'd been just a part of your imagination. It was like stabbing him, like a deep declaration of hatred. And it was gone as soon as it appeared, hidden behind innocence and fragility.

With her gaze lowered again, K'mih simply nodded, submissive and apparently understanding, and turned to take her leave. There was nothing more to add.

K'nahli · **08-17-2014, 10:12 AM**

Wounds heal with time and so too do scars fade. It had been four days. K'nahli had assured herself before laying her head down to rest on the night they had begun their departure that she would soon forget all and get on with everything else that was happening within their lives, the more pressing matters that concerned the tribe as a whole rather than just herself - as was one of her loathsome tendencies. Time, however, can be just as unforgiving as it can be be an effective healer of minds. Petty as she wanted to convince herself that her emotions at the time had been, they had only fermented into something more bitter that slowly drew through her like a thickening poison. She became more angry, more aspiring for the solitude she had - luckily - so far succeeded in claiming for herself for the majority of the trip. Very few words had been exchanged with her kin and more than likely, even if there was anyone to show any concern toward this particular girl's mood, they would never discern it from her usual brooding nature. She was, after all, K'yohko's firstborn child.

The warmth of Azeyma seemed less harsh in the upper reaches of Sagolii as it landed upon the pale, exposed portions of her skin with a less-than-common sensation of comfort. Or perhaps it was just in this particular spot where the U tribe had taken up residence. K'nahli's gaze wandered around herself, carrying a potent sharpness beneath her lowered brow as she studied the sons and daughters of the Drake tribe from the distance carefully. It didn't take long for her to decide on her personal impression of them. She loathed their chosen lifestyle.
Convenience and luxury had intentionally been made so readily available to them and yet they appeared to be more than content with that fact. It was disturbing. Had they no pride in their ancestors' culture? Their own heritage?

K'nahli blinked slowly, almost pompously, as an expression to her own disappointment. No doubt they had grown weaker as a result. Even Azeyma's ferocity had seemed to have grown weaker to spare them the burden of excessive heat, at least by Hipparion standards.

It was a pity.

Before arriving here she had set her mind on exploring and perhaps seeking out their warriors to learn something, anything from their ways. But now it was clear that there was nothing that they could offer her to earn her genuine interest. Their lifestyle was weak and shameless.

With a near-inaudible grunt of dissatisfaction, the girl's eyes briefly skimmed back over to the famous U tribe springs, a glorious yet modest body of azure that lay a moderate distance away from herself as it's refreshing sounds alongside the happy chirps of it's many participants once again reclaimed her focus. A thin sheet of brilliant, white light graciously lain down by the sun was iced across it's rippling surface and glistened magnificently as the water ceaselessly shifted and rolled with every small movement made by the happy miqo'te that bathed within. A light band of large trees, decorated with massive, lush green leaves stood tall out of the golden sands that gently slipped below the surface of the water's edge and encircled the spring at a respectful distance, with a few congregating more thickly in one corner and arching low enough to allow their foliage to take a modest sip of the refreshingly, cool water that resided below their emerald-tinted shade. In the centre lay a large boulder, bleached almost entirely white by the sun's rays and revealing grainy traces of minerals which shimmered dimly in the light that caught them. The boulder's summit had been covered with a thick bedding of shrubbery and moss that hung lazily down over the decorative rock's smooth descending edges that provided a comfortable rest for any to lay their back against.

For the briefest of moment's, the girl's expression softened mildly. The sound of it's splashing was unlike any that she had ever heard before. Nothing that could be compared against the measly sounds one would hear bouncing uncomfortably against the containers which they would drink from. No, the sounds of the spring were much more different and unique, like a soft yet inconsistent melody that seduced all into looking it's way to earn their immediate affection. Never had she bathed in such a way and without knowing of how it would even feel like, it seemed oddly alluring to the girl, far beyond the mere curiosity that it naturally bestowed upon her as it had with many of her kin. It's unparalleled beauty stabbed at her inner temptations incessantly as she silently fought to subdue them. The gentle sounds of it's trickling and splashing reverberated so loudly within her head, as though it were calling for her to explore it's joys and comforts that were yet unknown to her and escape all other thought.

".........."

With a hesitant jerk of her head, however, the girl finally managed to tear her gaze away from the springs.
Such thoughts were to be hidden away, even to herself, beneath her own pride.
An unusual pride that seemed to have falsely grown more prominent in recent days alongside her anger and frustrations.

Continuing to ignore the existence of her curiosities and innocent desires, the maroon-eyed huntress remained idle amidst the bustling activity of her tribekin whom had all involved themselves with their own individual tasks and leisures. She had distanced herself just enough so as to hopefully not be picked up on to aid with any idle and unimportant activity by anyone nearby, but also not so far that she stood out to any who would happen to survey the distance. Wearing a discontented expression, the girl gripped the elbow of the arm that hung loosely by her side as she loitered around without apparent intent. The reality of her own situation, her own choice of lifestyle following the calamity, was suddenly becoming very clear to the girl. The thought of such a scenario, in truth, had always known to her - it's presence a niggling fear that hid away in a dark corner at the back of her mind should anything ever happen; though now that something finally had happened, as disproportionate as it had been to her idea of "anything", it had struck a painful chord with the girl.

Without K'mih to talk to and with K'rahto behaving oddly, she had nowhere to lay her trust and comfort. Four days of thinking had caused her enough damage. She couldn't stand the thought of isolating herself further to leave herself alone to such thoughts again. She needed a distraction.

For the first time in a long time, K'nahli actually wished she had made more of an effort. Had worked harder so that maybe, at a time like this, she would have someone else to turn to. She wished that she had more friends.

Twinflame · **08-19-2014, 10:00 PM**

K'ile leaned away from K'mih, eyeing the young woman. Then she turned and left, and K'ile just watched her go, frowing, for several moments before turning to K'iara. "Now what'd you have to talk to her like that for? You know it's not like you're piling on the children either. Not that I'd blame you with K'yohko around, but that could've been turned around on you pretty fast." He stepped forward and turned to her, trying to imitate her mocking tone, though he notably did not imitate the raggedness of her wounded throat. "Say, K'iara, you're of age. Think you'd like to have some of K'ile's kittens?"

Nauta Lyehga · **08-21-2014, 01:41 PM**

K'luha giggled as she was splashed by Xha'li and Tahj. It finally soaked her front completely and left her feeling cool and refreshing. She wiggled her tail behind her, getting a devious look and looking to Tahj.

"Splash fight!" K'luha announced so loudly the entire U tribe and K tribes probably heard it. She was loud like that. Luha splashed Xha'li first, sending a huge wave his direction before her eyes turned towards the less social members of the tribe. K'ile and K'iara weren't so far she couldn't hit them. And neither where the elders and K'yohko. Even K'mih and K'nahli would not be spared!

Luha grinned back at both Tahj and Xha'li, pointing her finger generally in the direction of the rest of the tribe in hopes they'd get the idea. She wouldn't try to dodge any splashing, as nothing felt better than being hit in the face with water at the moment. Her first target was K'ile and K'iara. Using perhaps a tiny bit of magic she'd learned when she was out and about, along with her strong arms, she sent a large water ball in their direction. There was no hesitation before she launched one at K'yohko, K'nahli, or K'rahto either.

K'iara's ears twitched with irritation, but she straightened herself out to her full height and left her arms crossed over her chest. Seriously, did no one remember how to laugh anymore? Sharply on questioning that, the sound of laughter floated through her ears. She glanced to the oasis where K'luha, Tahj, and Xha'li seemed to be having fun, and she smiled faintly. Guess it wasn't everyone these days. Just a few sticks in the mud.

Her ears twitched again as the sound of K'ile moving caught her attention. She snorted briefly as her tail swung a bit agitatedly behind her. She didn't really think twice of K'luha screaming about a water fight.

"One of our tribe members needs to be dedicated to finding food to feed our current brood. Nothing good would come of any of this having kits right now K'ile. When the times comes, I will bear children for the tribe as is my duty, but to be honesty I-ECKKHHHHHH!" K'iara was cut off from her serious conversation mid topic as the water ball thrown by K'luha hit her squarely in her shoulder and exploded into drenching water in all directions. K'iara couldn't see through her wet hair if K'ile'd been hit, but she was sincerely hoping he was. "Wet. I don't like wet." She mumbled, standing awkwardly still and shaking a bit.

As K'yohko stood in silent vigil with K'takka, his body seemed to tense further and further. It looked perhaps like he wanted to curl into himself, but was refraining hardly harshly. His ears twitched at the mention of a splash fight, but he didn't move to address it. He assumed it was only K'luha having fun with the others in the oasis. But then he heard K'iara screech and turned his head to look. A mistake he probably shouldn't have made as K'luha's second ball of water hit him squarely in the face and drenched him entirely. Yohko was far too stunned to have a reaction, and simply looked back to K'takka.

"Grandmother are you alright?" he mumbled worriedly, his hair also flopping over his eyes he couldn't see. It had been too long since it was last cut. Perhaps someone could cut it for him today.

Izmina · **08-21-2014, 03:06 PM**

K'zhumi was coming around the edge of the wagon when the ball of water hit K'yohko, as the water broke in all directions, she managed to get thoroughly soaked as well. Standing in shock for a good couple minutes, Zhumi begins to fume. Ears flat, tail swishing and sopping wet she begins to stalk towards the mischief makers.

K'tahjha was hugely surprised at her aunt's playful streak, and as she watched random tribesmates get hit by the surprise attacks, Tahj doubled over in laughter. She had almost forgotten how good it felt just to laugh.

Xha'li Moui · **08-21-2014, 07:18 PM**

Xha'li grinned mischievously and flicked an ear towards K'ile before mumbling softly as a ball of water rose up out of the water and sped towards K'ile.Â "Uncle Ile! Think Fast!"Â Xha'li called out when the ball was only a few illms from the back of his head before falling over on his back in the water laughing.

Twinflame · **08-22-2014, 12:30 AM**

Water fell over the Elder, despite K'yoko's incidentally blocking it. He had saved her the force of the crash, but it had swelled over his shoulders and fallen on her thin form. The very thin old woman became even thinner as he hair was wet down and smoothed over her head, her clothes sticking to her skeletal frame. Still for once, her gleaming silver eyes were concealed behind her hair, leaving only her tattoos and broad, toothy smile visible. She cackled up at K'yohko and poked him with a clawed hand. "You are worrying if you are doing the best for the tribe, when what you should be worrying about is whence came your attacker and what recompence you can extract upon her."

K'ile's entire body stiffed when he was stuck with the water. He stood straight and his tail stuck out behind him, ears high on his head and eyes wide looking around. The water had dazed his sense of smell, wrapping him in the mineral scent of mud and moss. Still, he managed to see Xha'li's belated second water bomb meant for him. His instinct pulled him to the side as though it were fire flying at him, and he rolled into the sand just as the water whooshed by him. The sand stuck to his already-wet body, though, coating his arms and shoulders in mud.

"Augh, stop that!" K'ile stood once more, brushing the mud off of him. "You're wasting water and you know I don't like getting wet, Luha!"

Xha'li Moui · **08-22-2014, 01:10 AM**

Xha'li looked up and pouted as his water ball missed K'ile..."Thats what I get for warning him I guess..." he said resignedly before shouting back, "This ain't wasting water Uncle, here at the springs it'll quickly flow back down to replenish the pool in a matter of days."

Nauta Lyehga · **08-22-2014, 02:40 AM**

K'luha looked with a proud smirk to Tahj, her tail swishing happily behind her. Yes! Success! It'd been awhile since she was able to mess around with the tribe like that. Although K'luha did notice a very angry K'zhumi stalking towards them. She laughed a bit nervously and tugged at her hair before looking back towards K'ile while he yelled at her. She grinned cheerfully again, putting another hand in the water to splash at him again.

"You better dodge if you don't like getting wet then! Or come and stop me!" It had been a long time since K'luha had been able to yell playfully at anyone in the tribe. She had been so high strung over K'ailia's raising and being, but she wasn't as concerned about Tahj. Tahj was already a good girl. She wasn't constantly afraid for her. Maybe, just maybe a little bit, K'luha was making a little bit of progress towards something positive.

K'iara, like K'ile, also hated being wet. Perhaps it was their genes that were so closely shared or something. The huntress shrieked as if she'd been shot when K'ile dodged Xha'li's water bomb and it hit her squarely instead. Drowned, she felt utterly drowned.

"Don't get me wet because you're dodging K'ile!" K'iara hissed back towards her uncle, pushing her wet hair from her eyes before lunging forward to push K'ile towards the incoming water. If she could use him as a shield, she was going to. Although, she had to duck behind him to effectively use him as a shield.

It was a little frightening how thin his Grandmother was. K'yohko hadn't seen her without long billowing cloth in a very long time. She seemed thinner now, but he supposed the old age and lack of food would do that. He hoped in their new home, she could return to a better weight.

His ears twitched rapidly, both unsure as to how to take being soaked and unsure how to act on his Grandmother's words. Revenge on K'luha? He straightened up the best he could and looked over. She looked... very happy. And so did Tahj and Xha'li. It was a long time since there was such joy. To see it, his lips twitched into the faintest smile.

Feeling rather a rather impulsive desire to act on K'takka's words, K'yohko cast her one last gaze.

"I'll be right back." He muttered before slipping through the wagons and dashing forward. Pushing all his might forward, he took a running jump into the oasis aiming to land where the water was deeper. This would be the largest splash he could make, and his running cannon ball was a surprising success. A large wave splashed out around him, dousing K'luha from her back and seeking to overwhelm Xha'li and Tahj too. All the tribe members anywhere near the oasis could be hit. Albeit, the water wasn't quite deep enough and K'yohko felt his legs ache from hitting the ground in the water with more force then he'd intended. He stood completely from the water and shook out his hair, pushing it from his eyes and glancing around.

K'luha had yelped at suddenly being doused again, only to look back a bit shocked at the Nunh. The behavior wasn't something he usually did. K'yohko held a blank face and glanced back to her.

"What?" Yohko looked to his previous mate blankly. Luha coughed a bit and looked away again, a soft blush on her face.

"Nothing!"
