Rumi exhales heavily as she continues laying in the sun, not out of enjoyment, no, but out of longing. It's been 20 years since her adopted deer-centaur child was banished from the pride and chased out by the elders. Rumi's ears flatten sadly, not noticing her mate Leo laying down beside her, watching their cubs play. "Still thinking about them?" Leo murmurs, gently nudging Rumi's shoulder, earning a whine from the lioness centaur. "Papa! There's a deer-centaur approaching the territory!" Kai, one of the cubs, calls out, and it instantly grabs Leo's attention. "Rumi, lets go." He huffs and starts stalking towards the edge of the territory with a relucant sulking Rumi. As the duo begin to go to the edge, there was indeed a deer-centaur grazing near the territory, which earns a growl from Leo's throat. Rumi's eyes widen as she recognises the deer, "Charlie!" She calls out instantly but desperately.
