Ciro couldn't help but quirk an eyebrow at the other. Feisty...wasn't she?
"Seems like you have a little problem." He said, watching the scene with interest. He deliberately ignored her question at first, shaking his head with a chuckle.
"Your words about what you are, and the pride this is go on foreign ears. My own lands are many moons away from here, and I can assure you the names Mpigani or Kusini'Mwezi has never crossed their ears." At least, not when Ciro was there. If other reavers had been in this land, they did not make any comment about it. Perhaps the Captain needed a reason to speak of it. A perfectly good reason was standing right in front of him.
"Most call me Crow. I am a wandering for my lands, scoping the areas in hopes to find something that would help us. We have some sick at home, and our normal stops have nothing to help. This Kusini'mwezi place you speak of...do they know anything about healing?" It wasn't such a stretch from the truth, but Ciro had to be careful with what he said and did not say. Sure the famine was going on, and he would love to bring back some sort of cure to help the ailing lions. But mostly it was all just an act to find out what he could find out about this pride, and more importantly to Ciro, this lioness

"Ah," again, another chuckle. "I mean, you are a beautiful lioness. It probably likes you." Already Ciro, trying to put on the charm.
"Not guards per say, but I know of the term." They had Reavers, who did the same thing as what other prides considered guard duties. A difference being, the guards stayed put. Reavers could travel. At her comment, he shook his head. "Nope. Ours normally don't let many get that close, unless of course they were looking to enter the pride as a member." He didn't mention challenge, it could give away too much about him or his pride.
He found himself shrugging slightly. "We are just a small pride, the Stormborn." It wasn't the real name, nor was it the truth. They had many in numbers compared to most. "Our pride...prides itself on other values. Unfortunately healers aren't a big one. Priestesses now, we have those, but they don't necessarily dabble in the art of healing."
"Ah, but I would hate to trouble your leader for such a request. Do you have any first hand knowledge of the subject Maybe I can learn some things from you, and be on my way?"

"Ah, Chifundo. Indeed a lovely name."
The Captain found himself quirking an eyebrow. "Not sure what to tell me? Ah, well, I am sure you can think of something. And no social life? I highly doubt that." Ciro smirked, approaching the lioness. "You must have something about you. If you didn't, that little ball wouldn't be chasing you now, would it?" He grinned.
What he did for fun? Oh, what a loaded question that was.
"I do a lot. Traveling is one thing, but perhaps we can walk and talk about it is I like to do? Maybe we can...acquaint ourselves with one another, and I could give you a little demonstration. That is," He looked around, "If I am not taking you away from your guard duties. I could always come back after your shift, if that is easier for you."

Ciro nodded. He understood, and would keep the lady to her word.
"Alright then, I will leave you to your duties. Perhaps I can find others in the vicinity while I wait for you, might find out some information." Ciro would stay away from the borders. He didn't need others in the pride getting suspicious of him creeping around their borders. He'd find some other ways to entertain himself, and surely, this evening, the real fun would happen.
"See you after sunset, Chifundo," he chuckled, turning away from the guard as he heading in the direction he had previously come from.
