"LEAD ME NOT INTO TEMPTATION...
OH,WHO AM I KIDDING! FOLLOW ME!
I KNOW A SHORTCUT!"

Chief Navira stood in the middle of the mess hall, nodding her or there to different members of her clan, woofing out an order to each dog. She was sending them off on their morning duties one by one with a friendly smile and a cheery, "rumm pell fli, u'canna!"
Yet a part of her felt overwhelmed and lost even now, for she had still not chosen a rali'canna to stand at her side. If the clan hadn't lost so many of its members, keeping track of everyone might have been even harder. If the clan hadn't lost so many of its members, Navira might have known already who she'd have picked to be the general. Maybe. There'd a least be more choices!
And yet...life still went on, and dogs still needed their chief to direct them in their day-to-day tasks.
Speaking of...Navira's dark gaze gravitated to a certain young dog entering the hall with her siblings. Kira's brother and sister would soon split off in either direction to find their own assigned mentors among the scatter of bodies in the room. Navira felt a stab of guilt that she hadn't yet assigned a teacher for Kira. Was she even getting lessons at all yet? Had anyone been taking her out, or had she been stuck here at home like a tiny ren? How embarrassing!
Navira excused herself from the small crowd that she'd been instructing and trotted straight over to the red and white pup, feathered tail waving in a friendly manner.
"Hey, Kira!" She greeted the youngster, giving her a jovial nudge on her shoulder as she reached her. "You got any fun plans for today?"

Kira was honestly just a little underwhelmed. While the life of a Why'o was certainly enough to keep any canna on their paws. With any number of tasks to complete every day and canna to talk to. She was the last of her siblings to have gotten a mentor. And that gnawed at her slightly. It left her with much to be desired. Too young to be working alongside many of her clan-mates but old enough that it was no longer acceptable to put off getting her a teacher.
Entering the mess hall with her brothers was an innocuous motion. One that she did almost every day. And it seemed like this one would be like any other. Though she still felt a stab of sourness at seeing them trot off to their mentors. Leaving her standing alone. Her gaze wandered to the center of the room, Watching Navira bark orders. She was honestly unsure of how she felt about her. But then again Navira was really the only Li'canna she had any memories of.
She tilted her head curiously as Navira seemingly excused herself from the group and began to pad towards her. Though her tail wagged in greeting she was still surprised when she spoke directly to Kira. Furrowing her brows in thought at the question. Fun plans? She certainly couldn't think of any.
"Well..no. Why?" she then realized her tone could have sounded a bit disrespectful.
"Sorry Li'Navira." She wasn't really sure why she was apologizing for not having fun plans. But it seemed right.

If Navira thought that the pup was being disrespectful with her blunt reply, she didn't show it. Why'os weren't exactly known for their tact and manners anyway.
She continued to wag her tail and smile at the pup, clearly expecting the youngster to leap with joy (or at least show some excitement) over her invitation. What bored-to-tears Why'o pup wouldn't want a day out with the chief? (Maybe Lendri, actually, but that ren was a little weird)
"Well, if you're not doing anything today, I was thinking you might like to go out on a hunting trip with me." She suggested, tossing her head out in the direction of the forest. "I could use the help. What'dya say?"

"Me? Really?" Not her sweet 'little' brother Lendri? Not her strong- if a bit bumbling- brother Haka'far? She smirked as if having won a game unknown to Navira. Here she is getting invited out for a day with the Li'canna. While her brother where probably being lectured about something or other by their shoddy old mentors. The earlier jealousy was gone entirely from the pup. Even as she shook her head before replying to Navira she couldn't shake the bubbling excitement now present within her.
"Of course! When are we going? Canwegonow?"
In her excitement she was speaking a mile-a-minute. Tail wagging as her tongue lolled from her mouth slightly. A quirk she hadn't managed to shake even as she grew.

"Yeah you. Really really." Navira grinned wildly. Kira's joy was contagious. It made the grey speckled dog feel almost like a pup again herself, plotting a crazy adventure with her sister Nahara before life had made their friendship way too complicated.
"We can head out right now if you're ready." She said, trotting off through the mess hall doors. She stopped briefly to make sure that Kira was following and then she set off down the shadowed halls, tail held high and confident, showing that she was just as proud as Kira to have a pup by her side.
As they reached the double doors of the dark prison and stepped out into a bright world outside, Navira bent into a play bow, wagging her tail like a ren. Her goal - To give the youngster the best day she could, come what may...and also to learn more about Kira and what she was capable of. What better way than with a bona fide Why'o race?
"You might be able to outrun your brothers..." She teased, crouching to meet Kira's eyes. "But I bet you can't beat your chief to the forest's edge."
