The tall red head walked along with his sword secured at his side and his pack slung over his shoulders as he was busy tying his hair up. After packing up camp and taking care of personal things he was on the move yet again. Tale was his home and as of yet he had no where that he wanted to stay in permanently. Shea was looking, of course, but nothing caught his eye just yet.
As his hands fell to his sides he caught sight of something up ahead. A glint of gold. Not the precious metal but the color of hair. Instantly he thought of the first blonde he'd actually met and gave a smirk. It had been an interesting meeting to say the least. And it had taught him a thing or two as well. "Doesn't look like him though." Just to be sure he hurried his pace to catch up to the color as it walked along. The closer he got the more he realized that the body was not that of the blonde male he knew but was that of a female, a real female. While that was disappointing he was still intrigued by the golden color and called out.
"Hello." Shea was hoping to learn who this golden woman was and if she had a connection to Jakkoa. Even if she didn't then he could still find out who she was.

Faamy was humming to herself quite contently as she headed from work. Despite a long day, she still had a skip in her step, pausing every so often to check out a stall. She was saving up quite a bit of coin. Maybe she should try getting on the road soon to resume her travels...?
She looked over out of curiosity at a 'hello,' and was rather pleased to find it was directed at her from a good-looking fellow. "Hi there," she replied, smiling her usual bright grin. "What kin I do fer yeh?"

When the woman turned to look at him he took notice of her eyes. They were much different from Jak's. Delightfully so. Shea smiled at her as he took the last few steps to close the gap between them. "Sorry to bother you. Seeing someone from the Wind tribe around here is unusual for me." He knew it was common for others to cross the borders, especially now that the wars were over and things were progressing. "I was wondering if you knew someone named Jakkoa?" Sauti was a big place so she may not but it was worth asking.
The male adjusted the pack that was slung over his shoulder. The weight was new to him since he was carrying a bit more these days. Shea figured he might actually have to switch shoulders soon to prevent his arm from going numb.

Faamy smiled and shook her head. "Ain't any trouble." Jakkoa? She pursed her lips in thought before her brow lifted. "Oh! Jakkoa! I actually do know that cutie." She giggled at the memory of the golden man. "It ain't been that long since I saw 'im last. Are ya lookin' fer 'im?"

Small world! Shea seemed to give a smile that looked as though it was hiding a secret before he cleared his throat. After a chuckle he shook his head. "Ah, no. I'm not looking for him. I actually saw your hair from a distance and thought he was stalking me." Alright so that was a slight lie. He was actually hoping that this woman had been him. If only because the man was interesting.
Taking his hand away from the pack on his shoulder he extended it to the woman. "My name is Shea." Knowing that the blue eyed beauty before him knew Jak made him want to get to know her. Not only that but he was once more curious as to why a wind native was in his precious Tale. Not that he could blame them. It was beautiful. Still left him curious though.

Faamy cocked her head before giggling and shaking her head. Indeed, he must have really been focused on the hair. Apparently, Jak had this guy quite interested. "Shea?" She smiled and took his hand for an enthusiastic shake. "Faamy. It's a pleasure, even if it wasn't me ya wanted," she said playfully. "You live here, Shea?"

When she shook his hand Shea dropped his gaze to her hand for a moment. He was assessing her grip as well as the enthusiasm that she used in the shake. It was kinda cute to see someone so excited to shake another's hand. Upon getting her name, one that he repeated in his head a few times, he looked back up to her face. "Interesting name."
The question about him living here made him look around them in a rather dramatic way. "Oh well you know, Tale is the home of us Leaf tribesman." He teased her with a chuckle. Shea eventually peeked toward her before shaking his head. "But no, not this area. I haven't found a place to settle yet." Though it was possible that he might find something soon.

Faamy cocked her head slightly. "Well, I like it," she said with a giggle.
Watching Shea's playful reply, Faamy couldn't help grinning with amusement. "All of them Leaf tribesmen are o' Tale?" she asked playfully in return. "Ah, so ye're lookin' fer a place ta settle." She nodded and cocked her hip. "Same here. Ain't plannin' ta settle any time soon, though."

A half smile found it's way to his face as he nodded his head. "You should. Interesting name. Interesting woman." Shea seemed to have a twitch of curiosity about Faamy as he watched her and when she teased him about all of the Leaf members living in Tale he grinned.
"Clever too!" Shea arched a brow at her as he gave an amused look. "You have me there. I am sure there are some, hopefully very few, that have moved away. I, on the other hand, am partial to Tale." And rather adamant about not leaving it. When she mentioned that she too was looking for a place to settle, though maybe not anytime soon, he seemed to become even more curious. "Oh? And are you considering dear Tale as a place to do so?"

Faamy smirked and nodded in silent agreement. She was sure interesting!
Pursing her lips, Faamy shrugged. "I don't rightly know, yet. Ain't been in Tale long, 'n only other place been Sauti fer mosta meh life." Glancing around, she did nod again. "Seems a good place ta roost so far. I still got lots o' walkin' ta do. Spreadin' meh music 'round, yeh know?"

So she wanted to see more of Tale before settling down? Well that made sense. Shea figured he was doing the same thing. Wandering around and looking for the right place to put down roots. Of course he was leaning toward the center. He'd lived in the north most of his life and the south was just too hot. "Sounds like a plan." The young man nodded his head a little.
"A musician huh?" There was a bit of curiosity in his tone. He now wanted to hear what it was she had to play. Certainly if he could ear her music then he might be able to point her in the direction of a part of Tale that would most appreciate it.

Faamy gave a little chuckle. She wouldn't have called it a plan exactly, but it was something. Not that she needed a plan!
The man's question brought a bright smile to Faamy's face. "Indeed I am!" Slipping her oud off her back, she gave it an affectionate pet to show it off. "Like I said, gonna be spreadin' mah music all 'round Tendaji!" She strummed a few notes playfully. "What're yeh wand'rin' fer, Shea?"

He gave a thoughtful look at the instrument and even nodded when she strummed a few notes from it. He might not have spent much time listening to music or anything like that but he could appreciate the sound. "Sounds nice. Maybe I'll get to hear a full song sometime." Shea was curious what song it would be too. There were so many. Tale alone had several good ones so he imagines that Sauti had it's own vast array of them.
"Well.. a few things I suppose. I am looking for my lost family. An uncle and two cousins. As well as a place that I can call home." Shea wasn't sure he'd find that place for a while. If only because finding his family came first. He wanted to meet his cousins. "Maybe you've met them? My cousins are Padma and Ujana and my uncle is Uquin. All leaf of course." Obviously they traveled so there was a chance that someone else in the world had seen them or met them.

Faamy smiled brightly. "Well, yeh should stick 'round. Gonna find mehself a place ta play, earn some money an' such."
A lost family? That was much more serious than Faamy had expected. "Sorry, darlin'. I never heard o' 'em before. I do hope ye find 'em soon. I'll be sure ta keep an ear out, too." She looked at the cluster of trees they had been approaching and hooked her thumb at it, giving Shea an encouraging smile. "Why don't we take a peek right in there?"

Cornetified omg I am horrible.. D: Corny kick me next time.
So she was going to find a place to set up and earn money? That was smart. It might also be something worth doing himself. Not that he played an instrument. Shea had other talents though. As Faamy apologized he shook his head. "It's alright. I've never met them before in my life so I don't even know what they look like." His shoulders came up in a small shrug.
The cluster of trees caught his attention and he chuckled a bit when she said they should look in there. The man was sure that his family wasn't hiding in the trees but he couldn't help the smile he gave. "Sure, why not."
