Her own mother had driven her and her siblings away from their den when they were too young to remember her; since then, Stella had been on her own. She'd hung with prides of lions, cliques of monkeys, all underneath a harsh, unforgiving sun that she eventually ran away from in pursuit of a place to truly call home. That place ended up being Sunhaven.
Sunhaven was nice. It wasn't too hot, and there was everything she could've wanted here: trees, fields of flowers to run amok in, and stability. She had a feeling this place wouldn't be going away soon.
Oddly enough, she was never on the beach despite it being a prized part of the group. The clouded leopard had just... never been a fan of the ocean, even if it was pretty. Just looking at it for too long made her uneasy. What could be in there, she would wonder - how far did it go? Was it as endless as everyone said? So she stayed away, unless it was to go out for a very brief wade in the waters, or to poke at the coconuts in a futile attempt to see what was inside. In fact, she was going to do it after bounding over from the mountainside when she smelled - and spotted something - unfamiliar.
Stellamaris didn't know every single animal in the group, but they all carried the same scent. The lion she looked at from afar, however, did not.
"Hey!" the leopardess called out, making her way over. "You're not from around here. What's up? Why're you in Sunhaven territory?"
