Well! The world had turned, times had changed, and things seemed like they would only continue to improve. Eshkohl had been there when Queen Kimondo had so honored Meshach and Orion, as well as the fallen Umepatwa and Uchanjaa. Of the four, she had known that last lion best, as he too had served as a Guard. His death had been a sad waste of a good lion, and her mate had been saddened by it.
Still, she couldn't help but be pleased for those Knights who were still alive. Not that the green lioness was going to try to be a hero in her own right and gain the rank herself. Eshkohl was a Guard, mate to the Head Guard, and that was more than enough for any lioness.
Still, there were other aspects of life she'd like to focus on, now that it seemed Shangyue's dark days were finally behind them. The only question was, how to broach the subject to Nyota?
Bah. The lioness slapped at her reflection in the watering hole. She'd come here to try and set her thoughts straight in preparation, and instead she was standing here woolgathering.

"Calming myself," Horae replied, watching the water's surface smooth itself out again. It was funny, how the water reacted to whatever touched it, and yet it would even itself out again. She needed to do that for herself.
"I still struggle with the rage that was kept in check while the last 'ruler' was alive," she grumbled. "Sometimes staring at myself helps, how anger isn't a pretty thing."
Horae was a very to-the-point type of lioness, and forcing herself to deal with her own bluntness did help her...a bit.
"I'm sorry if I surprised you....I'm sorry, I'm terrible with names even though you know mine," she said quietly, shifting her paws in embarrassment.
