No matter the circumstance, being born was always a sort of violent process. One moment, you were nothing. You had to focus on nothing, and simply remain in the darkness and the warmth that surrounded you. You were safe, and happy, and there were no worries about things like food, or water, or a group. Once you were born, though, all of that changed. You were subjected to a burst of strange new feelings and upsetting surroundings, and a world that was much too bright even with your eyes still sealed shut. It certainly didn't help when a searing pain rushed through your body just beforehand, your first real experience with pain aside from the occasional kick of your siblings. The pain is accompanied by a rush of upsetting new emotions, unidentifiable in your young and unknowing state. You have little idea that a god has just given your mother their "blessing," or that you have inadvertently been given something as well. All you know is that something is wrong, and everything is new, and it's all so upsetting.
Needless to say, Ko'nari's entrance into the world was not a peaceful one. Freshly into a new world, and she isn't greeted by a soft bed around her, or the kind touch of her mother's nose against her head. Instead, she was greeted by a stinging rush of unrelenting heat, and the feeling of rough, unpleasant earth beneath the pads of her paws. Her eyes, still sealed shut, were not as they once were. As opposed to the calm natural blue they had once been, they were now drenched in a eye-catching and hypnotizing mixture of bright pink and red. Indeed, they would be quiet the surprise to whichever parent got to see them first. That wasn't to say that her pelt was any more subdued, however. She was a bright and messy mix of pinks and whites, and although it would be a long time before she would have to worry about a mane growing in, she would always have unruly tufts of pure white and hot pink fluff around her face, and neck. She was eye-catching to an extreme, and although she didn't seem to bear a strong physical resemblance to either of her parents, their spirits nonetheless mixed within her.
None of this would matter, however, unless she and her siblings got out of this situation alive. As it were, that was still a very tall order, and Ko'nari saw fit to make her displeasure known. Her jaws parted in a large and desperate yowl, trying to grab the attention of either of her mothers nearby. The draw of sustenance was string enough to pull her through even the overwhelming heat, and it wasn't long until the cub found herself dragging her tiny form towards Elsweyr's belly. She wasn't exactly making very speedy progress, however, what with the dirt and small roots in her way, not to mention the unrelenting sun beating down upon her back. While it was doubtful she'd ever remember this day when she grew older, she'd certainly see fit to complain about it later if she did.
