A short history of your character's time in the Tribe: Born into the original AniWaya tribe, became very close friends with Asha Amara and her family while they were young and growing up. Stayed behind when the scouting party left and focused intently on his chosen path as a hunter, becoming skilled in archery, spears, and traps. When Asha returned he was happy to see her, and of course sad to see her go when she left once again. He wanted to follow her to these new lands her father had established and with Onawa's encouragement he set out to follow her to the new tribe lands.
It had been a long journey, perhaps longer than he had expected, but he knew in the end it would be worth it. For as long as it had been, it was not a lonely journey, for he had both Onawa and Iye for company. Nayati could not remember the last time he had felt anything akin to loneliness. When he was not with his family and the tribe he was with his horse and his spirit guide. Even when he did not have Iye with him Onawa was almost always by his side. Sometimes she would slip off but he knew that if he ever needed her she would be back in the span of a heartbeat. He never questioned where she went when she was not with him nor why, for she were far more wise than he could even hope to be. The man trusted her without question and showed her the same respect and deference that he would any elder or chief.
Nayati's coal black nose scented the air, his ears perking in the cold air. "We are close." Yes, Onawa agreed, loping beside the dapple gray stallion and rider. Excitement filled him as if a dam had been broken and he could not help the large grin that came to his features. It had been so long since he had seen Asha's father. News that the former Kalona had retired had been a surprise, but the fact that Dawali had taken her place was a cause for joy. The man had always been kind and humble and such traits were well served to a Kalona. Nayati had no doubt that these new lands were flourishing under his fine example and leadership. From what he had gathered there were few of their people from the original tribe living here, aside from the Amaras, and he was interested to see the people of these lands that had embraced their way of life. Even without meeting them though, they had his respect for adopting their culture.
A fence came into view and as they came up to it the tio came to a halt. For a moment his pale blue eyes looked over the lands, finding the idea that he could have two places that he could call home strange and yet comforting at the same time. Patience was something the male had in abundance, being a hunter, but in this moment it fled from him and his head tipped back to let out a loud call for either Asha or Dawali. He simply could not wait and sit here for one of them to run across him. His howl completely, Nayati hopped down from Iye's back and waited expectantly to see his dear friends.
