She was angry at King Mosi, when he announced that he will rule the land, saying that the land had been led by no one since the beginning of time. However, after King Mosi met Queen Zalika and Askari forms his own Lion Guard to fight evil lions, she became comfortable living under the rule of King Mosi and Queen Zalika.
