Rendo sat at the base of the moutain of Lunarie. He gave a sigh as he looked down blankly. Rendo wanted to talk to someone about his problems but since most of the tribe was new to him since he got back from his trip he didn't know who to tell and wont talk or who will tell.

Ari walked the tribe lands, towards the mountain, lost in thought. He had spoken with Kazuki recently, and knew that his fellow elder was going to be coming back soon, but that knowledge didn't do much to lessen the burden of trying to manage the tribe by himself. He needed to worry about what position the kits would take in the tribe (there were openings for Yudoku and Kin'iro to take, but not for the rest of the kits, and he wasn't sure if he should open more spots, or think of some way to kindly tell them that they had to be tribe members), two new foxes who wanted to join, the matter of Nako being mated to one of the daughters of the Bamboo elders (who didn't even know about that), Kazuki was missing (along with their children), and to top it all of, he had seen Rendo sulking around, but had no idea what was wrong with the scout.
At the moment, the affairs of the tribe were doing nothing but giving him a headache, and he wished Kazuki would hurry up and come back. This was all so difficult on his own!

Rendo lifted his head and looked around before seeing Ari. From the look he had it seemed he needed to talk too. Knowing that this was a area that not to many visited he decided to walk over to Ari but he kept his respect to the leader and gave him his nomarl greeting just less spirit in it. "Looks like your having a bad week too...want to talk about?" He asked putting on a sad smile trying to cheer himself up more then Ari.

"Not really. Just that running the tribe by myself is far more difficult than I ever could have thought."
He wanted to ask Rendo what was wrong, but for all he knew, it was none of his business, and he didn't want to pry.
Although, lack of information was part of the reason why Kazuki had run off in the first place...
"What's been happening with you?" Ari finally settled on. Not quite prying, but it gave Rendo an opening to talk about whatever was going on, if he wanted to.

"Yeah Kazuki has been gone for a while..." He siad before looking into the forest one last time to make sure no one was listing. "Nothing out of the ordinary. Just that Anjafey has left me for another Tribe memember with out telling why..." He said looking away with a frown.

Ari stared at Rendo blankly, not quite sure he had heard right. Anjafey and Rendo? Breaking up? They had been mates for...well, what seemed forever. Since the very beginning of the tribe's existence. And now Anjafey was leaving Rendo?
"Who? Why?" Ari asked, trying to sort this all out. He didn't think he had seen Anjafey with another of the Lunarie members, but he had been so concerned with Kazuki's departure, and everything else, perhaps he had missed something?
He didn't want to think so, but it was still possible.

"Don't know what job she has but Ollure is her name." He said as he saw the surprised look. "Since I been gone helping my sister with her own problems Anjafey meet Ollure and said that we bicker..." He frowned as he thought about it. "I don't even remember when we did..." Rendo was obviously keeping his emotion under control by fidgeting and different little distractions.

"She wants to join the tribe, but she isn't official a part of it yet."
Ari wondered just how much of this was Ollure's doing--while Rendo and Anjafey were certainly different, they seemed to get along well enough.
There was the possibility that whatever arguments they had were somewhere away from him, and possibly the rest of the tribe.
But still, Ari thought that there should have been some more warning than this. The break up seemed to come out on nowhere, and the most logical thing seemed that Ollure was somehow at fault.
"Have you ever met Ollure?" Ari wanted to know more about this fox now. He had barely spoken with her when she first arrived at the tribe, being as overwhelmed as he was with everything, and he didn't have a good impression as to what sort of person she was.
Even so, he couldn't help but think of her as conniving, manipulative, and just all around nasty at the moment, as it seemed she was behind all this.

"Yeah...before coming here I was laying by the lake. She tried to preach to me." He took on a glare as that look came in his head. "When Anjafey appeared she gave me a contempt look...I hate that bi..."He immediately cut himself off, he didn't really know her and cursing in front of Ari, that was not good.
He gave a sigh and looked down. "I remember now, the fights were small and usually ended quickly and forgotten..." He said looking at Ari paws. He felt out of place at the moment.

"Everyone has their fights. If you don't fight, there's something wrong: usually you're burying how you feel to please the other person, and that can never end well."
Even he and Kazuki had their fights. If that confrontation he had with Kazuki after the other elder fled wasn't a fight, Ari didn't know what was.
He took to mind what Rendo said about Ollure. She preached at him. So not only was she most likely conniving, manipulative, and plain nasty, she was trying to take the moral high ground as well, and act as if what she was doing--driving a wedge not just between Rendo and Anjafey, but possibly causing a rift in the whole tribe if this break up went through--was right.
Moment by moment, Ari's dislike of Ollure grew.

"Well we didn't bury with each other..." He said taking on a frown. "Here I was thinking I had the perfect life. Did my favorite thing everyday my life. Had a job I enjoyed everyday...and a mate that I loved with my entire being...then I come back to the tribe lands after helping Rei out with her own mate and find out my only love just...dumped me" He said shacking his head as his eyes started to tear up. "It not fair...I went to do a good thing I come back and get heartbroken...does the Moon fox hate foxes that leave the tribe for a few days?" He asked Ari still looking at his paws.

"No, the Moon Fox does not hate you. Perhaps instead the Moon Fox sent this Ollure to punish Anjafey for what she has done."
There was, of course, the possibility that somehow, this was supposed to be for the best. But Ari wasn't even going to consider that yet. As life mates, they had vowed to be together for life. He had never heard of two life mated foxes breaking up, but a matter this important needed approval from an elder. And as things stood right now, there was no way Anjafey was going to get his approval.

"..." He didn't want to think about Anjafey being punished. Rendo still had feeling for her. "...if the Moon Fox wishes..." He said as he looked away for a moment. "Maybe I should get back to my job. Mabey that will change things a little..." Rendo just wanted some kind of excuses and it showed.
((Yeah, meant like stop out in the forest and pray, not like climb the moutain but okay.))

"Maybe," Ari replied, wishing he could think of something more he could do for Rendo.
Other than forbidding Anjafey to end the mating, he couldn't think of anything, though. And he would need Kazuki's agreement for that.
Which could be difficult, considering the...past Kazuki and Rendo had.
But surely Kazuki wouldn't take Anjafey's side, just to spite Rendo.
Surely...
