Lost, Left, and Banished

Baba guides Daisy out of the plant and in the middle of her and Nina. From here, Baba can see that some of the pink liquid is mixed with blood.

She cleans it off in a motherly fashion. Daisy doesn't say anything except a shuttered 'Thank you.' Poor thing looks traumatized. 

'Don't mention it. From now on we should really be more careful where we step.' The others agree.

And very luckily, the next morning brings rain! Sweet rain brings lush berries.

While smelling for any potential danger, Baba catches scent of another sunplant. She gave the one near the killer plant to Daisy, of course. She is slightly older than Nina and had worse injuries than her. But since there's two and Nina is still injured it works out fine.

Meanwhile, Baba and Nina find the sunplant. 'Hmmmm... what's it taste like?' Nina asks

'I hear it's good.' Baba replies.

'Were you a healer on the hills? It seems you know a lot about medicine stuff.'

'Kind of.' 

'I heard they live with bearyenas on the hills. Did you know any?' 

'My grandfather.' 

'Wow so that make you 1/3s bearyena!' 

'Quarter actually, but close.'

Baba hands the curious girl the yellow sunplant fruit. 'Nina might have a chance on the hills.' Baba thinks as she watches Nina wolf down the fruit.

Ooo, can't wait to see what happens next! Also, you should rlly get to finding some mates....I know they live a long time, but I still would like to see some baby nichelings soon :) And the longer they have to raise their children the better....but of course I know u cant spawn in wanderers out of thin air!

Not in a huge rush to find mates. I like to focus more on story than building an actual tribe but if the chance arrises I definitely would like to have some babies

Speaking of mates, in the morning Nina finds a tall handsome creature. 'Why hello handsome!'

Baba, scare Nina can't tell the difference between a mound of dirt and a potenial boyfriend, reminds her it's only dirt. There goes all her hopes and dreams.

And as they sit under the tree, gathering nuts in the quiet shade Nina wonders. She, being an orphan, never really got taught the strangers and the dangers. The two nichelings sitting either side of her were nobodies back on Leo's old island. Now there all she's got. But where exactly did they come from?

'So, Baba. I was wondering after our little talk the other day why you left the hills. I mean, if it's not to much to ask. Seems like you remember it fine.' Nina asks, a little nervous.

Baba thinks for a moment, looking up at the tree branches. 'I left because someone died. Someone who I was close to.' She looks down with a sorrow face. 'I couldn't heal them.' 

'Oh, I'm so sorry.' For the first time Nina feels something very deep. Compassion. 'I understand.' 

Baba looks at her. 'Pig?' She nods. 'I'm ok now though. Being out in the world with you guys, it's made me better.'

They sit for a moment in silance. Than Baba says 'Daisy, what about you?' 

'Huh?' 

'Why'd you leave your tribe?' Says Nina.

'I.. well...' She sighs. 'I just didn't feel like I belonged.'

'Nonsense! We need more detail.' Nina whines. Baba cringes. They're close to a nerve.

'I just didn't like it! Ok?' 

'Yeah but why!?' Nina continues. 

'Oh no Nina...'

'Because I didn't have a choice, Nina! They kicked me out!' She shouts. Nerve hit.

Daisy sits on the beach, thinking about how she reacted to Nina.

Maybe she still has some left over feelings from her past. Maybe she's been ignoring that fact that she's felt lonely inside ever since it happened. Maybe deep down she really misses her brother, her mother, her father, and her brith island. 

She shouldn't have reacted like that if she didn't care any more.

Suddenly she hears footsteps coming up in the side behind her. Nina sits beside her leans her head on her fur. 'I'm sorry.' She says.

Daisy puts her head on Ninas. 'No, I'm sorry.' She means that to Nina, but also to herself.

It's not long until Baba comes along, wraps her arm around Daisy and all are together...

Sleeping soundly on the beach.

Hope you guys liked that part! I had a lot of fun writing it. I wanted to ask if you guys had any suggestions and thank you for the support so far! 

That was beautifully written and now we know who was banished, and who was abandoned from before (unless I'm an idiot and thought I had gotten it from the dialouge but didnt). I guess the one who is lost is clear now...although if Baba was the lost one IDK how it meshes with what she said...but you probably do :) Anyways, I am loving the story and get that you want to concentrate on building it. Also I'm still curious to know why Baba shouldn't have children.... I still miss Leo, maybe at some point you could do a playthrough of just him on the jungle island starting a jungle tribe. It would be a challenge, and we'd run the risk of having him die ending his story in tragedy, but I would be interested in seeing that. However, I don't expect you to do them both at once! I love how you put humor into everything, most of your posts are funny :) Some are really deep, and some are both. It's quite unique. I have no specific suggestions for this playthrough at the moment other than finding wanderers to grow the tribe, but you already know that. Will be looking forward to the next part!

Thanks for noticing the humor! It's my favorite. And you're right for who's who. I'll say that if your still wondering about Baba, I didn't reveal everything just yet. I think there's still some more backstory to cover.

I really hope this doesn't have the same vibes as "BECAUSE SINGING KILLED MY GRANDMA!"
