Amani nodded and turned to follow Harabu. Once facing away from Nyek, she allowed herself a little smile. She was leaving, and with Harabu. The idea of going to a pride of healers sounded like a very good idea indeed and she didn't hesitate to follow him.

Angamika was singing softly to himself, silver eyes merry and Mja faithfully dancing with her underlings, the small black snakes wriggling and swaying through the straight shadows that the ruined coloumns and walls left on the desert sand. It passed the time, and he was happy, to be sure. So many interesting goings on recently.... plenty to amuse himself with. The paley marked tail thumped onto the sand behind him, and the dainty male jumped upright, the song twirling off into nothing, black marks briefly making eerie hollows of his eyes as he blinked, before smiling lightly again. He must be quite a bizarre sight to any watchers, he thought, and laughed slightly. So much fun.
"Enough for now, pet," and the snakes disappeared as if they had never been. Time for a drink, perhaps.

After his little talk with that fool Harabu Nyekundu padded out back towards the water. he needed a drink and still had to find two of his underlings whom had yet to be marked. Stepping around one of the obalisks he spotted the red and strangely tatooed figure of Angamika "Seer" He calls his tail lashing as he padded towards the young male a smirk upon his lips thoughhe stopped and waited "Come to me seer I have a gift for you" he whispers his dark golden eyes glinting. He enjoyed marking them, every single one of them it gave him some sort of bloody pleasure to see them flinch and oficially owned by him.

Malika lay where she was with her tail moving across the ground. She didn't have much to do at the current time and she didn't want to interupt any of the others who were already in conversation. Sitting up she looked around her to see everyone who was in the pride. A soft smile appeared as she looked at everyone around her she even saw the male she had been talking to earlier.
Then she heard the voice of Nyekundu, she turned to watch him as he called up Angamika.

The young lion twirled elegantly into an almost bow, his attitude complacent as Nyekendu appeared. At the moment Nyekendu meant safety; and food, which was more than what he could scavenge from the ruins. He'd got hungry recently, but his skinny form was still as dainty as ever.
"Greetings, my lord," he said aimiably, the markings rippling slightly on his fur as he stepped forward. Silver eyes stared at gold, and Angamika suddenly realised what Nyekendu intended. Of course he knew what had been going on; he even almost had convinced himself that he had foretold that it would happen. His enigmatic eerie stare never changed, though he inwardly flinched a little bit.
"I am ready and honoured to receive your 'gift'........ not like some of the others, perhaps?" His smile was onesided. "But the ruins point to a fortiutous time today... it is only fitting that I shall come to you now." Black hollows for eyes appear as he blinks slowly, well aware of the strange effect.

The seer, HIS SEER, often confused and inspired him, those dark spots that hid his eyes freaked him out even but he stood tall and waited for the young male to approach "Indeed Angamika I'm afraid we will have trouble in our midst if I do not quell it soon." His tail lashed, he did not sound afraid, infact he smirked, the thought of punishing those whom dissobayed him made him feel all tingly all over. Licking his lips he let the smirk fade to a plane bored look.
"Come Angamika you will be one of my honored, a proverbial general in my ranks though you already know your place in this pride" He whispers his eyes flashing, he liked to hear what his seer had to say about the future. "My mate will birth her cubs soon, whenthey arrive I will inform you and you, you will put the fear of god in to them am I understood?" his voice was a whispered muurr, he did not want any wars to hear his plan. he wanted Angamika to speak greatly of his heirs, to predict great and terrible things, to put the beasts here in line and in fera of the gods them selves. Straight from the seers mouth. Even if it was not a truth he knew the pride would beleive the strangely spoken Angamika and his writings. Even he, even he beleived it in some ways though he knew he could use the power for his own gain more than anything else.

"Even if you did not ask me to do these things, the writings will only confirm what you already command." The smile was onesided again, and Angamika wondered inwardly if the writings really would say that, and then confused himself further, getting a little lost if he peered too closely at the tangle of lies he had built up for himself. He extricated his mind onto clearer ground, and dipped his head submissively, eyes flickering sideways to the young lioness nearby. At least his example would make her less scared of the idea, anyway... the thought of scars marring his beautiful hide made him shudder a bit, but these things had to be done.
Despite his submissive posture, he tipped his silver gaze up fearlessly to Nyekendu for a moment. If it was to be done, he would rather it was done quickly.

Nyekundu nodded and stood turning the young male and loosing a single claw to his shoulder. He carved the first V, licked away the blood and whispered "V for vengence" he carved the second cutting deep in to the 'seers flesh "V for vendetta" he smirked cleanign away the bloob before going on to the third and final V "V for victory" He spent a long moment cleaning the blood from Angamikas coat, he wished for his seer to be cleana nd looking healthy amongst his other slaves, though still, clearly one of his.
"I want you to go out amongst them and listen Angamika, I want to know whats going on amidst the rabble. I know you can listen wheer I do not have ears." He licked his maw clean of his seers blood "I beleive you have caught malikas attention, if you please me she is yours" he smirked and nodded to the youngster, offering his slave a servant of his own. He kept his voice low still, he did not want the little female to feel mistrusting. he wanted her to trust his red pelted seer, to let her hear that if angamika pleased him she would become his proverbial servant girl, was not the way to keep her trust.

Angamika did not flinch, though the scratches were painful; he'd never been hurt by another creature before, not even the snakes, and it -hurt-. A soft whimper escaped him before he could stifle it fully, but he remained still as the wound was cleaned. At least it would not be infected, and he dipped his head deeply.
"Thankyou, my lord... on all fronts." Malika'eusi was too trusting to be here; but he could be her friend, that was true, more than others might be. They might be too rough and harsh to her, and an innocent little mind like that would be better not scarred. And she would be loyal, if she believed him a friend.... he didn't really want to think about any other implications, but the thought of his personal errand runner delighted the elegant young male. "For the honour of the marking, and for the female.. I am grateful." His eyes danced, though his shoulder ached abominably. "I will make sure all know what a strong leader you are..."

Malika watched the marking process, even though she had watched it before and had been marked herself, this one was more interesting. She couldn't say the reason but it was. Although she watched the marking she did not hear anything they said.
She continued to watch the two of them even though the marking was done. Perhaps afterward she would be able to get Angamika to tell her about the oasis like he was going to before.

Nyekundu nodded at last "good off withyou I have one more to find and mark before this day is through" He smriekd at the youngster passing hi to take a drink at the pool. He gave a short nod to Malika and touched her none marked rear leg with his nose "I beleive you have met my young friend over there look after him Malika he needs a companion" He smirked, that would do it.
Padding off in to the oasis grass lands he went off in search of his final slave to mark, Dhamisa, she would be his only female general the things he would make ehr do, well it simply made his skin drawl with delight.

Angamika watched Nyekendu leave with a slightly odd look before padding almost sheepishly over to Malika. "Well, that was not too bad, was it not," his voice was still light and carefree, though his shoulder was starting to ache abominably.
"And what did the lord say to you just now?" He inquired artlessly, tail curling and dancing absently behind him, the odd markings glinting gold in the sunshine.
((Forgive me, I'll reply in the morning, but I really have to get some sleep now. xD *craves tasty Mtamani RP xD))

Malika nodded to Nyek when he told her go and look after Angamika. "As you wish my lord." Malika replied to him before turning towards Angamika with a smile. She waited before she replied "It will stop hurting soon, although there will be some pain as you walk."
"The lord asked me to spend time with you, which I would have done anyway." She had taken a liking to Angamika, even when she had first met him. "Will you tell me the tale of the oasis please?"

"Well, that is most kind, Mali dear," he said almost delightedly. "And of course I can tell you some stories. Though," and he shot her a slightly quelling look, "not all the stories that reside here are to be told, or pleasant in the reading. But I can find some to interest you, perhaps?"
He took a few more steps past her down to the water's edge, dipping his head to take a swift drink as he had been intending to earlier. THe marks on his back seemed for a moment to Malika to mirror part of the walls behind them, but the resemblence was fleeting as the young male straightened up again, turning an aimiable silver gaze to her.
"So are there any particular kinds of stories you might pertain to listen to?"
