Welcome to Gaia! ::

She followed him with only the mildest complaining, and it was usually about being thirsty. She seemed to need a lot of water, or maybe it was Nafasi's way of saying she needed a short break. Hopefully Sezulwini never figured out which is which because their drinking breaks would surely be a lot more swift.

When they finally got to some sort of clearing and an gazelle nearby, those blue eyes turned a bit dark with hunger. She hadn't eaten since they'd left. Nothing completely unusual for her, but she was used to eating frequently compared to rogues. A pink tongue came out and licked her muzzle as she stared at the prey in question instead of fully listening to what her new teacher was going to tell her. Oh, she was trying to keep her manners, being proper, make eye contact, nod to let them know she was listening, but at the same time she couldn't.

She was so hungry.

"...Hunting?" She knew the basics. Never once had she had to implement them, but her mother did teach her family. Of course as Heir she had better things to learn, but she did watch the lessons with her brothers and sisters.

"Okay." She looked at him slowly and then back to the gazelle before moving ahead in the grass. She was trying to be quiet, but sticks and stones moved and she quickly stopped and crouched low. This was so much harder than she thought.

"What do I do?"

He might not be worried about her failing, but if Nafasi failed, it would solidify certain self-doubts in her mind. The yellow female was quite hard on herself.

The girl stopped and took a deep breath, those bright, sky blue eyes closed and it looked like Nafasi might actually be trying to take this seriously. She always was. There was no room for failure.

Once her eyes snapped open, she took off toward the gazelle again, trying to plan her steps out ahead of time, walking a bit awkwardly. She managed to get a lot closer to the target, but she was hesitating, there on her belly in the tall grasses. The wild dog wasn't sure how to go about grabbing the throat. Her ears laid back slowly before she turned to look at her tutor.

He'd show her first? Nafasi nodded and stayed where she was, but laid down completely rather than in her crouched position. She didn't want to talk at all, in fear of making the gazelle go off and away from them when they were trying to hunt.

Part of the yellow female felt like she'd never get this. It was going to suck, honestly.

Her head poked up as soon as he lunged, watching the male take down a gazelle quickly and efficiently. She knew the basics of hunting, but never actually had seen anyone kill a creature. Nafasi moved along after him when he called and squinted.

"You don't have to call to me like I'm a pup, you know."

She wasn't happy about being treated like a pup. She was honestly an adult and had a lot of responsibility in her pack. None the less, the Princess's head was up right as she followed along obediently.

"Just you watch. I'll be better than you."

((Sounds good))
