## Relationships

### Empress Dani:

**Sarafina's** relationship with her mother was brief, as her mother disappeared shortly after they were separated during a journey to the Ndona Kingdom. She had a close bond with her, and misses her greatly. A lot of **Sarafina's** motivations and competitiveness stem from the need to get her mother back, thinking if she is successful and strong enough, she'll return, and refuses any idea that her mother might have just abandoned them or was killed. She has no idea who her mother truly is.

### Sachihiro:

**Sarafina** has no idea who her father is, or the history between him and her mother. Sachihiro was overjoyed to hear that he would be a father, and would've no doubt been a great father to her had he gotten the chance. **Sarafina** looks most like him.

### Kaarina:

Kaarina is **Sarafina's** twin sister. During the journey to the Ndona Kingdom with their mother, they were separated from her when a group of jackals ambushed them, injuring Kaarina in the process. **Sarafina** and Kaarina ran as far as they could into the Ndona territory and hid. They were soon found by Queen Uru and were soon given medical attention and eventually were adopted by Lady Onyesha when their mother didn't return. Kaarina usually sleeps alongside **Sarafina** in the open air, away from the dens. The sisters are usually inseparable, but they don't always see eye to eye on certain matters. When the matter of their adoptive family comes up, Kaarina is more accepting of them and calls Onyesha "Mom", and doesn't understand why Sarafina isolates and refuses to show their adoptive family respect and appreciation.

### Takasa:

**Sarafina** and Takasa grew close as cubs, when Takasa was the only one to tell her the actual truth about her mother and what the adults knew about that situation. As they grew older, they entered a romantic relationship. This relationship causes tension amongst the other royal lions, especially Tish, Zira's mother. Their relationship, while looking innocent on the outside, tends to have manipulative actions, leading to bad decisions being made.

### Zira:

**Sarafina** and Zira also knew each other as cubs, but had a very adversarial relationship. Both being the top students of their sparring class, they competed heavily against each other, both holding equal power over the other. **Sarafina** was under the belief that Zira would taunt her due to her being jealous that Takasa loved **Sarafina**, and would retort back quite often, leading to arguments. During one class, **Sarafina** and Zira got into a physical fight, using their teeth and claws do actual damage after they both goaded each other with personal insults. When they were put into time-out to sort their issues out, it soon came out that Zira wasn't jealous of **Sarafina** and her getting attention from Takasa, but it was quite the opposite. After this realization, they began to begin their friendship under healthier terms, quickly becoming nicer to the other
