Setting: Riverbank in or near the Pridelands
Participants: Anyone, preferably Prideland lionesses
Time of day: Late day
----------------------------------
It's good to be ex-king.
A life of care, diligence, love, and judgment is someone that is difficult to let go of and is was surely Mohatu's most difficult decision when he decided it was time to step down and let the Pride's rightful heir take his place. Oh, there couldn't be a better choice of a king, and a son, than Ahadi, but seeing him do all the things that he used to do without needing or wanting his support is tough. In the end, though, it is what the Circle dictates and, therefore, he must follow his path towards the end of his life.
But, while he's at it, he may as well have a little fun.
Grumpy, some call him, crotchety, others, but get an idea into Mohatu's head that isn't something concerning pride politics and is sure to ruin or otherwise inconvenience someone he loves and watch out!
Today it's a somewhat bolder than usual prank.
Catching the fish was no easy task as his time as any manner of hunter was long ago. Keeping the writhing thing in his maw without biting down and killing it is something else entirely. It stands a good chance of going sour either with the fish succumbing to the open air or to the potential tastiness of it driving him to eat it, but just yet mirthful and playful old eyes search for an unwilling victim along the, often, fairly active river bank.
Surely someone was foolish enough to take a nap with Mohatu nearby.
