History: Mayla was born with her twin brother Toiro into the Kiliaman pride. She is good friends with the yougest princess Kibibi and shares her hate for Sialone. She is very loyal to her pride and would do anything to help the pride's welfare. Mayla and her brother are identical twins and as cubs it was very hard to tell them apart, they would constantly play tricks on other lions and they found it highly amusing. When they got older, it was easier to tell them apart because of Toiro's mane.

When their leader Mazai was murdered by Sialone, they were suspicious about his death and wanted to investigate. Unfortunately, Sialone banished Toiro in fear that he may overthrow him. Mayla begged Sialone to reconsider, but he refused and told her to go hunting for him. Unable to bear living without her brother, she bade goodbye to her mother and went to look for him.

Weeks later, she found him roaming the savannah, he was thin and starving hungry. Unable to catch food for himself, having never been taught the art, he had scavenged on leftovers from previous kills. Mayla comforted her brother and hunted for him, they then debated what to do. Toiro wanted to leave these plains and search for new territory, maybe find mates and make a pride of their own, but Mayla disagreed. She said they should tail the Kiliaman pride and wait for an oppotunity to arise when they could take it back. He didn't argue and they did so for the next few weeks.

They realized something had changed within the pride when they eavesdropped late one night. Kibibi seemed distressed and Mayla felt a pang of guilt for not helping their friend sooner. She and Sialone were arguing, Sialone wanted cubs of his own and Kibibi wouldn't give him them, he struck her and they were about to intervene when a sark shape lunged itself at Sialone. It was Kibibi's son Sango, he was allegedly the son of her and Sialone but he looked nothing like Sialone at all.

They watched as Sialone was defeated by the young male and then rushed to Kibibi's side. She had been wounded by Sialone and it looked deadly, Kibibi whispered something in her son's ear and then she passed on to the next life. Mayla studied Sango's face, he had been a tiny cub when she had seen him last and now here he was, all grown up. He had been slashed across the face by Sialone and now had two gashes ripped down his face and over one eye. He spoke to Mayla and Toiro.

"Mayla, Toiro? I know my mother trusted you, i want you two to take care of the pride while i'm gone"

Mayla blinked "Where are you going?"

"To find my true father"
