Talli had caught enough prey to satisfy her stomach. Though she had found herself near the outlands unintentionally. The curious young lion looked out into the vast barren desert and sighed. She knew there was a small pride forming out there. How on earth they survived was beyond her, but they were enough to worry Shah. She had heard that there were only 3 of them but a male had recently joined which was what concerned most other lions. Now with a male they wouldn't have to reach for other wandering lions to join them. They could breed there own pride and though it would take a while, eventually they would be able to rival Shah's pride. Talli on the other hand wondered why they few in that pride hadn't just come and joined Shah's pride. Living in the outlands had to be ten time worse than living under Shah's rule.

Rook stood up and stretched. "Why don't we go hunt in the prideland territory. Stick to the edge where they won't notice a few of there prey missing." He was tired of watching his pride starve. Something had to get gone and if that meant they had to hunt on the edges of the pride lands he was willing to do it. It wasn't like he hadn't held his own against older male lions before. He had and he would willingly do it now if it meant the pride actually got to eat today. "The worst that could happen is I come back with a few extra scars and maybe nothing to show for it." He stated looking at the two females. He wasn't going to go if Kikatili said no. Though if Ziwa said no he would just go hunt by himself. He wasn't looking for the lead huntress's approval at all. He was waiting for Kikatili to answer him, she was the only approval he needed to head out. If Ziwa wanted to follow she was more than welcome to.
