Gaio

After some of your teenage cubs tell Gaio a scary story about undead lions, Gaio is so distraught that they've worked themselves into a panic attack. Grandpaw Nyekundu holds them close and tells them that he'll keep them safe.

After some of their siblings laughed at them, Gaio stormed off from training. Grandpaw Nyekundu forced all of them to apologise to Gaio, who quietly asks if it's okay to train without them watching.

When Gaio asks their Grandpaw if he'll be there forever, Grandpaw Nyekundu has to break the news that, one day, he'll be gone. Before Gaio can start to panic, Grandpaw Nyekundu promises them that he'll be watching over them from the stars, and they'll never have to be afraid because he'll always be with them in their heart.

Gaio, a little upset that their mother went out for her daily walk, is sniffling and quietly sobbing where she'd left them. Grandpaw Nyekundu scoops them up and pretends to nom at their belly, slobbering all over Gaio - whose sniffling and crying was quickly replaced with giggles and squeals.

Gaio asks if you have invented any new, adorable cub names yet.

When you greet her, Gaio makes sure to remind you to visit everyone else in your pride today.

You playfully stuck a feather into the fur on Gaio’s head. She laughed and asked how she looked. Quite elegant, really.

Gaio approaches you and starts licking your muzzle, cheek and ear. You obviously should look your best today.
