 The light (or dark) brown lioness walked slowly through the outskirts of the Pridelands. Danzi and Mvumo had her mind tumbling with new possibilities to this strange large world. The moon was waning in the sky and cast a bright light across the lands. Wandering at night could be dangerous, but that was when she moved the most.
The lioness was nn her way to a place she had hidden a gazelle carcass, and she was pretty sure it wouldn't be in the exact place where she left it. That would have been alright of course, if some lonely in need creature had taken it she would understand.
"You were like that once, little 'dil," she muttered to herself.

 Siria'Chunuka was still in the pridelands since she had not had the time to explore it like she wanted due to the fact of running into another, a pridelander just returning home. That wasn't to say that she did not enjoy meeting the other, it was just she had been delayed from her wandering.
Yet when she came across another lioness she stopped walking and spoke out wanting to learn of the one near her. "Hello."

"Hello there!" such a bright green mixed with black, what lovely colors! "On your way in toward Pride rock?" she tried her best to seem like she knew these lands. The little maned wolf would not be a challenge if she was hostile, but it was better to make friends than enemies!
"I am Aadil, who might you be?" Her words were happy ones but her tone seemed to be a very harsh husky low one. She had seen manewolves before in more natural colors, this one could get lost like the little cheetah cub Aadil had been taking care of.

"No I am simply a wanderer with no destination ahead on myself." The black and green maned wolf replied in a calm monotone voice. Her tail was the only part of her body moving now that she had stopped walking. It moved in a back and forth motion that many wolves and dogs did with their tail. She did not know where Pride rock was or what it was all she knew was that she was passing through.
"Siria'Chunuka, but a name is just a word or a group of words and you are free to call me what you wish." Siria enjoyed talking in her strange ways with that distant far off look in her eye.

"Siria'Chunuka, now that's a mouthful. Do you mind if I call you Siri?" there was a smile across her maw. "You speak oddly..."
I guess the gazelle would have to wait, part of her mind wished that it would still be there when she returned to it. The other part wanted a poor creature too. She should have taken little Nyigu there.
"Wandering is what keeps the soul healthy, most certainy, wouldn't you agree?" She nodded her head and sat down on her haunches. "Keeps the mind sharp." Maybe this woman needed to keep her mind sharp...

"Call me what you wish for as I said a name is just a word." Siria looked as if she was looking through the other into nothing at all when suddenly the dull glazed over look vanished. "You might think I speak oddly, when it may be you infact that is the one that speaks in an odd way."
"Wandering is what I do, I follow the wind and the wind leads me to where I need to be, to where I am called. No one can predict the patterns on the wind so where I go no one but the wind itself knows." Siria told her for her explaination. "I do not need to keep my mind sharp but to keep it open to new horizons."

Aadil chuckled looking over this strange maned wolf. Aadil may have been new to the outside world, but she thought for sure she spoke in a normal way. Danzi, Nyigu, AND Mvumo talked in the same matter. Her heart fluttered at the thought if Mvumo.
"I think I talk just fine, "she titled her head. "i like to wander it keeps MY head clear."
"Do you have any family? Wandering alone must be well..lonely?" Aadil blinked mischieviously, trying to get the wolf to speak normally.

"Then you do, each person speaks the way they think is normal and for myself this is my normal way of speaking, it is the manner in which that makes me myself." The cryptic maned wolf replied in the same tone as before and would continue to reply in that exact tone.
"My answer would be both a yes and a no, for my family is deceased and I can no longer see them, hear them or make contact with them in anyway. I however do not mind being alone for I find it rather soothing and comforting and would rather spend the time alone than be with someone for a long period of time." That was her simple answer in return to the others question.

" I've lived alone almost since birth. You'll find as years go on that it is not a great way to spend your life," she was trying hard to hide the anger in her face. She was alone for years and this one wasn't even acknowledging that it was a good thing to have family.
"I'm planning on starting a family, even planning on joining a pride." with that the light brown lioness started walking on her way, she wasn't going to stand arouns and listen to some cryptic BS with out being able to eat. Her mind was on that gazelle the entire time, surely someone left it..right?
"You can follow if you want..." Aadil's muttered and then again talking softe something that, wasn't audiable, and would be impossible to hear. "I wish you wouldn't."

Siria'Chunuka could understand what Aadil was saying but the truth was that she had spent most of her own life alone and was rather happy to have it that. It was in her blood, her spirit, her soul to wander. She knew that it would be difficult for anyone to stop her from wandering. It had been this way almost since she had been born and she didn't feel like changing a thing. "For some it is not good to be on your own, but for me it is how I am, I have been like this from just after I was born. It is something I am not able to change, or rather not able to change easily. My thoughts may anger you but it is my personal opinion."
She walked a few steps with the other before walking behind before saying. "You must do what you believe is right for you which as you have put it is to start a family, and join a pride, for me however it is to wander, to wander alone." She paused still moving. "Perhaps one day there will be a reason for me to stop wandering alone and for me to wander with another but until that day I will continue to wander and I am contempt with how it is."

"I understand, the one I love is a wanderer, and I have had a hard time convincing him to stay.. of course men can be..persuaded?" She snickered and kept her pace as she walked. "I hid a gazelle up here, near a watering hole, are you hungry?"
Aadil was wrong to think so harshly about this female, sharing a meal with someone is a profound thing, it's a way to appeal to the other person in a different way, rather than speaking verbally.

"All men and women can be persaded by another, it just takes time." Siria replied understanding the words of the other. It was nice to talk to someone about how they felt and the call they needed to follow.
"I thank you for the offer but I feel I must decline." Siria responded polietly since she was just fine as she was. She felt no need to eat since she had eaten not to long ago but she was thankful for the offer

"My entire life I've felt the call for a family, I feel it start at my tail and work it's way up into my mind," she paused, "like someone is telling me that is my place, a humble mother. I'm sorry, I don't mean to spill my soul to you."
Hey tail twitched uneasily as the watering hole came into view, the gazelle was gone, a trail of blood in it's place. "Well that was a flop." Irritably she looked around, it was the dead of night there would be no way for her to hunt at this time. Her whiskers seemed to have lives of their own, moving in the cool breeze.

"There is no reason to be sorry, you are free to tell me what you wish I have no objections. I cannot offer advice for many of it but I am all ears when it comes time to listen." Siria replied cooly to the other, her expression still emotionless.
When she saw the look on the others face to see that her meal was gone she said. "I apologize, I kept you from your meal and now your meal has gone."

"There can always be another meal, I'm just hoping someone who really needed it drug it away," a shy smile crept across her face as she spoke; she had a sentamental part of her devoted to the needy animals around this area. "I know what it's like to not have a meal."
She looke down embarrassed, her coat was matted and clumped with dirt; it always was. As of late though her fur had been coming along and she looked a lot heathier, although there was still a slight hint that her ribs were noticable.
"Where do you come from?"
